Please support our Soldiers where ever they might be whether you agree with the War or not

Life goes by so fast some days and we as a people are fed so much misinformation

on a daily basis that it becomes easy to forget what is actually happening in the

world and how it came to be in the first place.

False Information Mis-Information and hoarding of information and not getting both

sides of the story

Please if you could continue the timeline until we have captured Bin Ladin and all our

soldiers are safely home from all the war zones

Also maybe you could go further back in time on the time line to when one of the

actuall reasons for this war occured the real Weapon of Mass Destruction (Osama bin-Ladden)

and what we know about him and his allies.

May God Keep Our soldiers safe and people start coming together and talking instead

of blaming.

Although not a Republican or Democrat Myself I prefer the Independants who blend

the best of both.

I do believe President Bush is doing the best job he can with the

the support he has His priorities just seem a little askew to me.

Maybe because most of us in America have given away to much of our own voice and

power to corrupt Local Goverment and National Congress Officials.

Blessings to the ones who are still true to the Red White and Blue and the

Constitution of the United States of America.

May September 11th remain in our memories and not fade into compliance with those

who want to pretend it never happened .

Soldiers stay strong and stay true don’t allow hatred to corrupt your beautiful souls.

Thank You for protecting us all.

First: An Iraqi force of 150,000 well trained and equipped Police Officers must
be created from Iraqi volunteers who wish to make Law Enforcement
a career. I propose that these volunteers be taken all-at-once to Kuwait
where they could be trained by a cadre of Military Police Training Specialists
and be made ready for service upon the streets of Iraq within 24 weeks
of Volunteering. It takes around 10 weeks to take a U.S. civilian volunteer
for the U.S.Army off of our streets and turn him into a Basic Trained U.S.
Soldier. It takes another 9-12 weeks to take this soldier and turn him
into a Military Police Officer.

Second: The rationale behind the 150,000 man figure, is based upon my own
experience as a Police Officer: Cities, generally need 1 Police Officer
for every 1000 citizens in the population of that city in order to provide
adequate service and protection -in the BEST of times! The population
of Iraq, Is about 25,000,000 souls. The situation there is catastrophic
to say the least, therefore 5 Police officers for each 1000 citizens in Iraq will
be needed.

Third: These Coalition trained Iraqi Police officers would be sent back home
all-at-once as a massive force and assigned to the areas where they
are needed most. Believe me, 150,000 well trained and well equipped
Iraqi Citizens trained to Protect and Serve their homes who “Hit the Ground
Running” -all at once-WILL BE DECISIVE!
Fourth: The coalition forces HAVE the training capacity to handle this job! All
It requires to make it work, is Dedication to Duty, and proper Leadership!

Last: Why NO ONE in a position of Leadership in this Nation has offered a
plan such as mine which offers “Light-at-the-End-of-the-Tunnel” to
our heroic young military folks, and to the people of Iraq-who saw their
infrastructure destroyed when the bombs started falling,etc. ONLY leads
me to the conclusion that The Bush Administration is taking orders from
somewhere OTHER than the citizens of the U.S.! We have seen around
2,500 of our Children KILLED in action;another around 18,000 Wounded-
around 8,000 of those so severely that they cannot return to duty!

Listen People!!! These are US!! Wake the Hell Up!! Do Something!!

Haunt the Damned Telephone, the E-Mail, the Letter Boxes, etc. of
YOUR Public Servants: Senators and Members of the U.S. House of
Representatives, that Idiot in the White House, and ANYONE else
that it takes to do something about this sorry state , this catastrophic
course that the U.S. Ship-of-State is now on!

In the end,when all is said and done, it is YOU who will or will not make
this right!!!

May our Heavenly Father guide us, and help us all!

Six flag officers publicly call for Rumsfield’s resignation. Quite unusual. It requires that a General first resign. Then that he speak out; which is considered non-professional.

It takes little skill to start a war; great skill to end one. It took President Lincoln 8 months to fire McClellan for having “the slows” during the Civil War.
It took 11 months between D-Day and Victory in Europe during WWII.
It has taken 4 1/2 years for Rummy to start two wars and go operational on a third.

War is hell. Isn’t it insanity to say: “Lets create another one.” Especially having proved incapacity to finish one.

Thank you Generals.

In South America is would be coup time.

They went to the newspapers.

I was 100 percent sure of that prior to March 2003. Whats your point?

Three years have gone by – and where exactly does this leave us. I am fine. I sit here and type away – 99% sure a bomb will not go off over-head, armed groups of foreign troops will not come down my street, and there will not be a deadly battle raged…

So…when does this happen?

According to Deadeye Dick Cheney on FACE THE NATION today, whatever good that happens in Iraq, stays in Iraq, so we should focus on the news that we don;t hear instead of the news that we do, like civil war and errorneous stuff like that.

I’m still waiting for the inevitable day (if things don’t change around here real soon) that you’ll be arrested in the U.S. for NOT carrying a bible!

If so, I will work my files and bring several new elements to the table.

Most notable absence I saw in preliminary review was the BOMBING OF THE UN OFFICES, and the refusal of the US to allow the UN to fully catalog the nine nuclear dumps that US allowed to be looted.

Also, during the invasion phase, the Russian ambassador’s caravan was attacked from the air, apparently by the CIA. The ambassador’s driver was wounded or killed (I don’t recall). This was an act of war against Russia, btw.

Thanks for the defeatism, but no thanks.

“they ( reichwing) did NOT put alito in for abortion.” –bs

Alito’s presence on the SCOTUS will not prevent an impeachment (he isn’t even going to be in the room).

• If the vote-fraud fails, and Democrats get 11 additional seats this November, they will retake the House, and there will be an impeachment.

As much as it may make leftists unhappy, there is still very much an impeachment pending. A great number of R-Obstructionists in Congress are — absent sufficient vote-fraud — going to be getting walking papers in November.

The real issue is not impeachment, then, THE REAL ISSUE IS RETAKING THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, which means outing and removing the vote-fraud, and the vote-frauders.

In California, vote for future Secretary of State Debra Bowen in November.

Are you aware of the uproar caused by this Apartheid terrrorist’s death in Iraq, a violation of S. African law barring these CONVICTED CRIMINALS from working as MERCENARIES?

“Gary Johnson, president of USA Blackwater, told the Guardian UK’s Jonathon Franklin that former commandos training in North Carolina will be sent to Iraq for a year and a half. Their job will be to guard oil wells from saboteurs.

“We scour the ends of the earth to find professionals – the Chilean commandos are very, very professional and they fit within the Blackwater system,” said Johnson.

The Guardian story notes that several of the 60 recruits served during Augusto Pinochet’s brutal military government.

USA Blackwater isn’t the only security firm hiring ex-military of disturbing origin. Last month, The Forward’s Marc Perelman reported that contractor Erinys International utilized “former henchman of South Africa’s apartheid regime” to guard oil facilities and train new Iraqi police.

“François Strydom, who was killed in the January 28 bombing of a hotel in Baghdad, was a former member of the Koevoet, a notoriously brutal counterinsurgency arm of the South African military that operated in Namibia during the neighboring state’s fight for independence in the 1980s. His colleague Deon Gouws, who was injured in the attack, is a former officer of the Vlakplaas, a secret police unit in South Africa,” wrote Perelman.”

I’d like to endorse the several suggestions about creating other timelines. I think it would be best to keep them discrete, but present them as complementary. For example, in addition to dealing with the run-up to war, I’d like an overlapping timeline of MSM and cable media complicity. That might include stuff like the NYT/Judith Miller disgrace, the administration’s providing propaganda video in the guise of legitimate journalism to local TV stations, and the bombing of Al Jazeera’s headquarters in Baghdad (and proposed bombing of their main headquarters).

The missile attack on Al Jazeera occurred on April 8, 2003, generating a LOT of bad publicity. Shortly afterward the “rescue” of Lynch was staged and filmed, thus pushing the murder of journalist Tariq Ayoub off the front pages and TV screens. Pure coincidence, I’m sure! [Can I put in an unsolicited endorsement of the documentary Control Room here? It’s balanced; it’s enlightening; it’s heartbreaking.]

Language suggestion…Important, not a quibble!

I’ve always thought that the word “casualty” if used in a military context referred to both death and serious injury. I’m an old geezer, and I know language changes continually. Still, a quick check of on-line dictionaries confirms that’s still the dominant meaning. So here’s my suggestion:

Let’s use the term “casualty” in its traditional sense. And let’s use the term “death” for, well, folks whose lives have been cut short. To say “casualties” when you mean “deaths” is doubly unfortunate. First, it reduces the impact by replacing the stark reality with a euphemism. Second, it obscures the real cost of war, a cost that for other casualties often includes, not a quick death, but a lifetime of suffering for the person herself/himself and for everyone who loves or must deal with him or her.
