and i hate it when friends ask if i seen this or that on the news and i have to say no i missed it and then they go on about how cool it was and stuff

so your friends think that people getting killed is cool? Its not a computer game.

Ha Ha, that's a good one. Mind if I use it. I know a lot of people that need a good laugh right now.

confirmed clashes with marines and iraqi soldiers
mass surrendering of iraqi conscipts almost inevitable says fox news

Old Reliable · 03-20-2003, 08:35 PM

fox news also reports that iraqi troops enjoy bananas as opposed to iraqi rations

Fox News is balanced, at least a lot more than NBC...

It's still conservative though, and it needs to stay that way. We alredy have the Clinton/Communist News Network owning several stations.

The news channels in my opinion are biased anyways, gloriflying the war. I'm not saying i'm unpatriotic it's just that i don't like how we seem to use propaganda to exploit others and make us look better, personally i though this country had some class. I don't bother to listen to the bullshitters at cnn for any form of war coverage because like in desert storm the military intentionally mis informed the news in order to fool or trick the enemy which could be the case...by the way remind me who the REAL enemy is anyways.

Old Reliable · 03-20-2003, 09:46 PM

watching a war.....lol WAR COVERAGE? its like survivor

jdogsmooooth · **yeah -** 03-20-2003, 09:47 PM

a US Marine Chinook has crashed killing 12 US and 4 british personell.

That isnt "cool"

White Rabbit · 03-20-2003, 10:48 PM

pentagon said it was do to mechinical problems and not by hostile fire

Old Reliable · 03-20-2003, 10:51 PM

bullshit, it was shot down. if it was mechanical that would be 3rd mechanical problem

Captain Bunny · 03-20-2003, 10:52 PM

Thankfully the death toll is now 12 and not 16, but it was 8 britons, not 4.

yeah, mechanical failure. 9 miles inside kuwait, and they were returning from a mission.

but no doubt saddam will have something to say about it.

If it truely was mechanical, we gotta start checking our choppers more carefully. Or better yet find an alternative to helicopters. Whatever happened to that plane that was for the Marines that could do vertical take offs and landings? The one in half life biggrin:
