America at War

Re: RE: America at War

You are doing a fine job proving it yourself.

Threatening me with violence are you? That is pretty brave knowing the chances of you getting thumped are almost nil. It is easy to play tough guy from the safety of your home and behind a key board.

No more f**kin' around...

Vanni: BRAVO.

****

Words that incite are not acceptable here.

(this is the very game that many Americans played on the US board I recently left. Incite, and if one "reacts" in any way, they come back and bash the poster, (or whine) diverting from the subject at hand. The mods play favorites, and let these bozos get away with it .......particularly if the mods are in the same political party line with basher. Was a real insight into a certain mindSET. Playing the aggressive game of "setup".....(set up a poster to react emotionally, then coming back at him/her vindictively or with whinging (whining for the uninitiated has become a pastime for many in America.--- and one can recognize an "American" poster from a mile away. But that is not a bad thing;-)

So delighted that the mods here mean business. . are fair , and impartial.

this is turning out to be a treasure of a find -forum wise. The membership increases every day. Excellent views are presented, with little diverting from serious topics.


Wanted to comment on that.(even though it is a wee departure...... and now back to the topic at hand.

so.....WHO does care about the Iraqis??? Where do they come in , in all this??? ( and let's not get into the bush rhetoric......empty as it is ) All that spin about "freedom"......is meaningless when there is no stability, and this kind of outrageous aggression going on.


footnote; the author of this article is worth following.....as he writes from Iraq and presents a relatively objective picture. (credit where credit is due, but criticism where it is due too)

Hey EagleSmack. Did you call pro-terrorist? I am going to smack you a little. Prove to me that I am a pro-terrorist.

I am going to smack you a little... that is not a threat?

 

[moghrabi]

Cut the crap Eaglesmack.

It is the American way hiding in their planes and bombing the S*it out of people. But when it gets tough and dirty, you cry for help as you are doing in Iraq.

Our boots are on the ground and the US Soldiers and Marines have been banging up the insurgents where ever they are met.

We are not crying for help unlike Canada did in Rawanda.

 

[moghrabi]

you are a poor communicator. Can't attack an individual then you go attacking a country. We are the peaceful kind of people and we like this way.

I've been communicating very well with these folks. You just do not like what I am saying.

Truth hurts.

Are you using the Royal we? :roll: I'm sure you're speaking the mind of every GI there eh?

Assistance in any conflict is always a good thing. Requesting backup is never considered crying, but if you see things that way, no wonder you're finding that many allies are now packing up and going home.

Yes well maybe your opinions are to incite eaglesmack, you seem to have a problem with anyone discussing the war in a open honest way. As long as its to your liking than its okay. Blah! this is canada, we talk about what we want. First you accuse us of enjoying seeing american people die, what hooey, its your silly way of trying to stop a discussion. What are you afraid of anyway??

You have a problem with morgrabi, well news flash!! He has been coming here forever, and obviously the middle east is important to him. You say he is bias, perhaps, but are you saying that we as readers cannot sort out facts. I find it strange that what he posts offends you so much, yet you post nothing to refute him, thats what you should be doing instead of trying to stiffle our right to freedom of expression.
Morgrabi lost alot of his family in the middle east, so yes he is focused on one issue, just as you are at trying to keep him quiet. Why??

I am speaking as an American. Some allies have packed up and went home, but there weren't many to begin with. That is fine. What comes around goes around. We will be called on again by the UN someday and maybe we won't show up. I hope we don't. I hope we've learned our lesson.

I believe I said that there are some people who relish the deaths of Soldiers and Marines as it promotes their agendas. Some people want to show the coffins as they come back to the US. Why is that? To honor the soldiers for their sacrafice? I think not.

It is to exploit them and put them on display.

 

[Twila]

Well twinks, my spare bedroom is open to anyone that does not want to go to war Razz I don't think anyone should have to go fight in a war if they don't believe in what they are fighting for. Just ask float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. Its takes alot more courage to say...no way!

I don't believe people should be forced to fight either....I wouldn't fight...but I also wouldn't join the military...

 

[peapod]

Wow! you must make a great friend there eaglesmack. I see, we are either with you or agin you. That does not work with all humans tho. Just as in "real life" friends do not always agree on what is a good choice or a bad one. You want "blind" devotion, no one is allowed to ask questions or point things out...this sounds like a bad marriage to me.

I hope to God you do not interfere with another world matter or create another war. No one will come calling.

WHAT TRUTH? THE GWB truth?

 

[EagleSmack]

I feel that Saddam Hussein and his thugs needed to be removed. He was a brutal dictator. I know we can't get rid of every one but he has thumbed his noses at the UN for years. He was no better than Hitler.

http://www.iraqitruthproject.com/

However, this invasion has been played off as GW's war and quest for imperialism.

So when I say I hope that we do not get involved in other UN Military ventures I mean it. I do not see many other countries attacking us. Sure we will most likely get hit again by terrorist, but I do not think countries in Africa, which is a tinder box, will attack us directly. I think and I hope we should sit the next few out.

Once we pull out of Iraq and Afganistan, and who knows when that will be, I think we should let these other countries who obviously know better than the US and are more worldly and compassionate to put their men and women in harms way. The US has been called many times and has a pretty good record in responding. We called on the UN to stand up to this thug who has killed 1.3 Million people and the UN made us as the aggressor.

So be it.

You want to talk about friends now? Oh, all the world hates the US, but we should still open our wallets and send troops when ever the UN says we should.

Again, I hope we have learned our lesson.

Certainly not the morg truth.

 

[moghrabi]

What do you know about my truth. Most members on this board and around the world and even in your own country share my feelings about the war. So I fail to understand why you are after me personally.

 

[EagleSmack]

Get over it Mog. Stop trying to bait. I do not feel like getting banned and it is pretty easy to get banned here when you have an opposing view than the moderators.
