[quote="Recycled Spooge":07f12]Ben Franklin didn't invent electricity. If I was in control of the U.S., I would certainly not attack Iraq because Iraq never attacked the U.S. It's a crazy idea, no? How about attacking Saudi Arabia; the homeland of the 9/11 terrorists? What a crazy idea! Try to use some logic. How about removing naval fleets and military bases off the Persian Gulf. The Arab states there are like under the iron curtain over there; either you submit to U.S. authority, or you get your shit blown up. Saudi Arabia is just as "evil" as Iraq but since it submits and agrees with the U.S. it's an ally now; although it's press and media is largely anti-American and anti-semitic. Same thing with China by the way.[/quote:07f12]

The whole Arab region is anti-American, however, they still come to this country for education and medical reasons...go figure!! About the possible attack on Iraq, i said we should just send a team of assassins to take Saddam out. As for having our military there, we have to. Remember Kuwait? Do you think our presence there might have something to do with some sort of civil peace in the region? I think so. As far as Saudi Arabia, they're an Arab nation so alot of pressure is put on them from other Arab nations. Bin douchebag was banned from that country so at least they appear to try to debunk terrorism.
Now how did China get into this? They support terrorism? If they hate us that bad also, maybe they shouldn't export their goods into this country anymore. Everything here is "made in China". I guess they like making money off of us.

[Gerald]......i'm done talking to you because it's like pissing in the wind!!

I believe China killed its citizens just like Iraq is "doing", and it's the "evil" communist nation, like North Korea which is in the "Axis of Evil". But once again, we have a double standard.

You're like that pussy kid that got picked on in junior high, only to develop
an unhealthy obsession with his attackers. You can remember, but one of
these days, you will have to move on. I don't think I need to extrapolate on
this...

[quote:f81ba]If you keep taking out the top leaders, eventually the empire will fall. Killing Saddam and Bin Douchebag is a good start if you ask me.[/quote:f81ba]

That is a fallacy: there will always be someone to take the Kingpin's place.
History keeps repeating itself, yet people just don't get the lesson.

[quote:f81ba]You have any other alternatives you'd like to share with the rest of us?[/quote:f81ba]

Ya, I do have a suggestion: how about using those billions you waste on
your TOY ARMY to good use, ie. helping the poor in your own country and
extending outward from there ? I know of four or five possible retorts to
this, and none of them are any good... so save your breath.

[quote:f81ba]oh well, like Mick Jagger once said: "you can't always get what you want." [/quote:f81ba]

Perhaps you should heed his words yourself.[/quote:f81ba]

Yeah, i got my ass handed to me everyday at school. Brilliant.

Leave the kinpins in place? Perhaps they'll go away on their own??

Using the billions we waste on our TOY ARMY for good use like the poor? Like that is gonna help our battle against terrorism. Ahem, we have a system called "Welfare" to handle just that.

The Mick Jagger quote? Where does that fit in here?

Actually we had jets without german technology, Stop comparing to vietnam, That has nothing to do with anything! that time it was fucked up by politics and the people of the united states did not back it up.
We have a good army why cant u guys admit it? I dont see wth? we have a good army get over it! Why do people talk shit about us? If we want to invade iraQ then good 4 fucking us. U guys dont want to help oh fucking well. How does this affect other superpowers? it doesnt really.
We dont NEED help from other countrys. If we are gonna do this then its gonna get done.

Good, we got down to just China now. Does China manufacture terrorists bent on using nuclear weapons? No...China has nukes to keep the playing field level. Is the Iraqi government the same as China's?...No, for if it were, Saddam wouldn't be in this predictament.

.
Germans were using jet planes before any other country, most militarys didn't see them as much use because the engines where bulky untill after they seen that germany had a few good jet planes then other countries started to get them built. As for vietnam it was known as the war america couldn't win for good reason, they weren't used to fighting an advesary that used those style of tactics.

We have toy soldiers? ok so we do, but doesnt that mean every country has toy soldiers? Greens that want to just go out there and get some? What makes us a bit different is that our toy soldiers ride in technology.

Fighting terrorism is an exercise in futility, but your government isn't
fighting for you anyway... so stop thinking along those lines. Citizen
safety was never on the list: it's all about the Benjamins baby.

I cringe at the sight of you asking me how they both fit hand-in-hand...


EDIT: I apologize; it isn't all about the Benjamins... as some seek power.

That is NOT what I meant by TOY SOLDIER. Please look at one of my
previous posts for that expression's proper definition...

Correct.

My contention is that the US of A will never really use it's army anymore...
as life is soooooooooooo precious and soldiers cost way too much to train.
Sufficient proof is available to back up my contention, as it has been quite
obvious for a while; especially lately.

Who knows, maybe they'll actually use the pawns one of these days eh?
