Canadian Military Operating in Iraq. Good or Bad?

Should members of JTF-2 have participated in the raid to free Canadian hostages in Iraq?

RE: Canadian Military Ope

Are these the same Peacniks who went to Iraq to be human shields?

You know, I was wondering that myself. I wouldn't be surprised if these were the exact some fools.

I do not believe we should be in Iraq period. The war in Iraq was created by the USA for the USA. They wanted the oil and to establish a military base of operations the threaten Iran and Syria, as well as to protect their oil interests in Arabia.
There is no democracy in Iraq and their never will be, America is making sure of that.
Afghanistan is another matter. The people there attacked a whole host of nations and the Taliban were and are nut cases, and something had to be done to respond the their aggressive actions toward the west. Saddam did not attack us, he challenged US interests and they over threw a legal government in violation of international law.

Makes me proud to have served knowing that our troops were instrumental in rescuing these Canadian hostages. Their actions show that we Canadians, are willing to step up and do the right thing.

I also did not support the war in Iraq, but I know that withdrawal now would mean disaster.

It is a shame that the individuals rescued and their organizations fail to acknowledge their rescuers.

I read the article that was written in the Globe and I was gob-smacked. The holy rollers would not even allow themselves to be de-briefed. Amazing, bloody amazing.

So you would prefer JTF-2, trained for tactical hostage rescue, would do nothing of the sort in a warzone simply because you don't agree with the war. It's not like the spec-op boys were laser guiding bombs (as they did in Serbia) or blowing up suspected insurgetn strong holds. They flew to Iraq, rescued our citizens and left. Remained a part from the War, and did what they were trained to do. Huah.

The superhuman effort to rescue these people has me strutting about the property with my chest stuck out singing the star spangled banner and Oh Canuckistan at the same time, anyone of these fine christians trying to deliver god and freedom and democracy to the heathen moors in dire need of gods word is worth two or three hundred thousands of those brown buggers.If only they could embrace Jesus of WalMart like the right people they'd be saved, God The Father, God The Sun, God The Free Market, halaluya day of rapture is upon us, all the peaceniks and hippys and leftleaninperverts are going to hell in thier public transit buses. I'm ready to cast aside my evildoin ways and join my white brother and sisters
and kick some sandpunkin butt, that Jesus oil belongs to uncle sam and me.

Ya but who would it be diasterous for? If you had doubt's about Canuckistanies doing the right thing before this rescue what the hell were you doing in this country, if you had doubts for all these years that we would or could do the right thing what were you doing in my army,fakin it for the pay and bad mouthing the nations policy at the same time. You'd march all over the planet helpin the Empire but I wonder if you'd strap on a six gun and stand up on your hind legs for medicare.

Unfortunately some people or rodents can't seem to disagree with others on this forum without insulting them. As for your previous post;

I couldn't agree more.

You're disagreeing with me and I can assure you that you're insulting.

Boys, boys, there is a place for abusing veterans and clubbing beavers.

It is called Wreck Beach.

Go there.

Please.
