thats some motivating trash right there killer, hoorah. thats what its all about, lets not turn this into a which service is better argument though (although we all know which service that is ), all the troops are in this together and we all want them to come back safe.

new news, bosra has an uprising now supported by british artillery, came as a big surprise to coalition, but it is a very very very very good thing, hopefully other groups will follow. i guess these people are of shia origin and are revolting against the camel jockys. also, the bombing continues, even through the big sand storms over there right now.

The kurds in the north and the Sheits(sp) in the south never liked Saddam. These were the people that Saddam gassed and tortured.

The other side of that internal fight is this (according to Fox again):

Well, not sure if this is the place to post it, but I didn't want to start a whole new thread on it. I found this article from someone who was in that human shield thing. http://www.portal.telegraph.co.uk/op...3%2Fdo2305.xml It made me smile, figured the people reading this thread would get a kick out of it.

Gimp, I just read that article and wished that the majority of the protester would see the war with an open mind. Most of them are getting info from news agencies that only report some of the facts that would get them ratings. The only news agency that I war for "war" reports is FoxNews. A few on Saturday, I was watching one of the military officials giving a report. It went on for about thirty minutes then NBC in Los Angeles cut to a golf tournament. It was like, WTF!

CNN BABY!

BOO to CNN, CNN needs to be taken off the air

I only turn to CNN when I want to know what Bill Clinton would say.

Restola please quote the entire paragraph next time.

"Now you might say it is not fair and is morally wrong to compare the US now with Stalin's Russia. But is it really wrong. I think not. Everything has its beginning, in Russia it started of just as simple as this country is. People where said to be anti-soviet if they said something that was anti-Lenin or Anti-Trotsky, or especially Anti-Stalin after the 10th Party Congress in 1921."

You would think the Russians would have learned not to mess with Americans with projectile firing devices after we owned them at Xball (If you havent heard the news Russia might be selling Iraq anti tank+radar jamming+ satellite/gps jamming devices.)

Gentelmen! Guess what we just captured after a fire fight! After they surrendered we discovered 3000 sets of Chemical protection Suits and Masks and Gloves that were brand new and recently issued to them! Now why would that be? Hmmmmm.....

They were fighting from a hospital by the way.

maybe you don't understand. its not the right time for a rescue, it would stray us from our ultimate goal. As disheartining as this is, thats the way things go. In desert storm we did not make any formal attempt to rescue our troops. (i do not think at least) Plus we are not sure where they are being held.

i understand but the way they guy said it he might as well just said " pows? OH those stupid pos, we dont care about them, they are useless now, better off dead"... cause thats honestly the attitude he had, and it made me sick.

Just wanted to post something here... cause I see every day how much people don't have a clue what's really going on... I'm sick of hearing, "Mr. Bush stole the elections, and he has raged a war to redeem his dad who went over in the first place to steal oil" ... and "The war is all about oil, see, we are fighting for oil fields" ...

seeing as how this is the only place that we can talk about this matter, I'm talking =]

and, Damn the Dixie Chicks! anti american -edit- !! It's ok to disagree with our Leader, it's ok to see things differently.. that's what our troops are fight to protect... freedom, and yeah, Iraq as a country was not about to take over America .... it's them sending Whoa, can't say that! with nukes to our country that takes away our freedoms..... and seeing as how no one wants to take an act, we.. The United States of America have to act.. and make our country a safer place to live.... God Bless America, and our Troops and the Allies Troops, and Damn the Iraq Army that stands in our way of us protecting our way of life.

ahh.. I'm done.. =]

see that wasn't so bad..
