what about think with a different angle.

I can not agree with you in 100% regarding some thoughts, but you got good point of view

Hello, I have a few websites of my own and I must say that your site is really top notch. Keep up the great work on a really high class resource.

This “new” troop increase will increase the casuality rate but why would
someone who hasn’t seen combat care. As for the military disagree with Bush and forget any promotion and retire.

God help the troops who are in more danger now than they were previously. Until Bush is gone Iraq=Vietnam with the same eventual result, the military & the administration are making up new Iraq solutions on the fly over dead soliders, just as they have been since the invasion.

I wonder if they would be so gung ho if another country was capable of dropping missiles on Washington. One can always talk tough when the enemies of the state are thousands of miles away.

Hat tip: Seth McFarlane

In 1850BC the Egyptian Early Kingdom had been the world’s superpower for hundreds of years. They certainly occupied Palestine, the crossroads of the world at the time. But around then came a liberal government…a Pharoah McGovern as it were.

He decided that it was not nice (and too costly) to occupy Palestine and he pulled back all the troops. Twenty years later, his crack troops were in their 40s and retiring, replaced by untrained troops in a degraded army.

Meanwhile, in the mountains of Turkey, a new civilization had invented weapons of mass destruction: these were called chariots.

But the Egyptian CIA had also been downgraded and/or they felt it was immoral to read other people’s papyruses (or is it papuri). So nobody knew about chariots.

In the middle of one night…the unknown enemy that had silently crossed the unguarded Palestine…entered Egypt and captured the entire country with the terrifying new chariots.

Many say that it was under the administration of this non-Egyptian force that Joseph was able to become a high official…while his descendants were made into slaves when the Egyptians recaptured their own country generations later. This memory caused the Egyptian Middle and Late Kingdoms to be a lot stronger.

Main lesson: one cannot cede at least indirect control (or alliance with) the people who control important resources and key crossroads in this world. Before this war ends, Iranian oil revenue must not be flowing into the hands of terrorists.

As you claim everything is so hunky-dory since the US invaded Iraq, infrastructure is better, Saddam is out of office, why don’t you both report to us from the streets of Baghdad on this blog? I’m sure we’d like to hear your live, for a time at least, reports. Please don’t give us excuses, just go there and experience it first hand. Then, if you return, we will gladly listen.

No where did I say everything is “hunky-dory”, exaggerated strawmen are a poor debater’s trick.

As for your suggestion that we go to Iraq and report, why don’t you? You apparently disagree with the facts I presented, so why don’t you go to Iraq yourself and report on how horrible everything is?

See how lame that debate tactic is now?

Americans are learning and still can’t get their democracy straight:

The American democracy voted for the IMBRA law that Bush signed. It is under restraining order by one federal judge but another (Republican) judge has said “The Supreme Court has never recognized a fundamental liberty interest in Americans meeting foreigners for relationships.”

Apparently the American people voted to have their right to association limited to domestic “associates” only.

Be sure not to vote Republican in November for THAT reason. But there is no reason to rationalize that killing terrorists and their younger brothers will magically create a non-existant additional 3 brothers appear and become terrorists.

By all means, but not by killing hundreds, or thousands, or tens of thousands of civilians. If you are the great humanitarian you claim to be, you’ll have no problem putting american soldiers lives at risk to protect innocents in Iraq.
