The War in avganistan is about hypocrisy and deceit.

[Socrates the Greek]

The real reason why Harper is taking the ass kissing supportive root to Afghanistan is because Harper is out to impress W Bush and other world war loving leaders like Tony Blear and others. When Politics put a spear through the hart of Democracy that is Hypocrisy! Harper is a cartoon in real life, he is pretending in the world stage that Canada’s military mite is of significant standard. The hypocrisy born from this undemocratic posturing by Harper is clear that Harper is working on impressing the Bush war loving machine rather that stay the hell out of Afghanistan. What is sad and a black eye on the Harper idiots is that, here in Canada we have the tainted blood patients who don’t know if they will live or die because of the shortage of cash in that area, while Harper will squander 5 billion in the military no question asked. Talking about priorities in the wrong place or what?
The Military is an evenly divided question amongst Canadians. The pro need to take a look in the mirror and ask if hypocrisy has the right of way or Democracy has the right of the way. To stop war is Democratic especially a war that has nothing to do with Canada, when in fact we all know it has to do with Harper brown noosing to Bush.

RE: The War in avganistan

I can agree with that.

 

[Colpy]

The left pretends to be concerned about the people of the world, yet would abandon the people of Afghanistan to the tender mercies of the Taliban,

Now THAT'S hypocracy!

Hey Colpy, god forbids the bombs don’t start going off in Canada. Because it is known when ever you get involved in other peoples business you stand a chance in back pedaling for a long time, and that is not what 50% of Canadians want.

War is business.

Well, all I can say is that there are no more terrorists being trained to bomb and kill in Afghanistan.

We're too late to run away anyhow. Bin Laden listed Canada among his top five targets after the invasion of Afghanistan. I guess those boys REALLY didn't like the snipers of the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry.

We're in the fight, and we're on the right side, and we are indirectly defending ourselves.

That's fine with me.

Diplomacy can make the enemy stay at bay, brown noosing is the red blanket that gets the bulls coming your way.
Where do you want to be in front of the bull or behind?

Colpy I support Afghanistan mission and I am socialist, communist.

And to Socrates, war is driven by economics and business, if you do not have the resources economically or militarily to continue a war you don't do it agreed.

However, even though the Canadian blood patients is sad, as well as Residential schools and other issues, like the Head Tax.

As a Canadian soldier, I would like these issues solved, but i would like money spent on me and my comrades, one of the four that died today was from Victoria, which is the 'group' base for our unit, and I would like to see money and equipment being spent and sent to protect my comrades and myself because, I'm a Canadian soldier, doesn't mean I deserve to die because someone doesn't want our military run.

Answer:
In front or behind?
...does'nt matter ; just do him medium rare

We could all laugh, but with the recent loss( and likely more to come)..... not a good time


A war like this one, if it can be called that, can not be won
with usual military tactics.
The fight is not with opposing armies, nor with different races, nor with different weapons,
but with different thinking; and to say (the minds are) seperated by thousands of years does not even come close.
It is out of this world, literally!

Mao Tse Tong called US Soldiers in Vietnam "Papertigers'
BAD OMEN, surely wanting; he must have seen something!
Will the number of bodybacks lead to answers?

No time to be agnostic or atheist; ya.. ya.. just my take :?:

Re: War in Afghanistan

I am a left-wing person, I would suppose, and I simultaneously support the intervention of the Canadian Forces in the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan. From the information that I have reviewed in terms of our participation in the intervention in Afghanistan, I would suggest that we are indeed there in the interests of both Canada and Afghanistan, and that the concerns of the United States of America in terms of this invertention are secondary (in my opinion).

 

[I think not]

I have a question for those who support the Afghnistan mission and not Iraq. What is the difference between the two?

An identifiyable threat, the Taliban.

Jersay I respect your good contribution to Canada’s well being, I personally like the Canadian Military to be a force of diplomatic achievement not diplomatic k.o.s. War has the tenancy to create nothing but K.O.S in all democratic circles. The winners are the wrong people in today’s war, between the east vs. the west. What we are seeing is that a war of religion from the east against the west, and the problem is the enemy has long ago infiltrated in North America and that is the scariest think of a global war like the one we are in today. No country is safe the unthinkable is an enemy with multiple heads and the sad part is, you kill two heads and 10 other ones are born simultaneously. Looking at Iran, today they are starting and I am sure this has existed in the past, schools that teach how to carry out a successful suicide missions. It has become seriously disturbing that Malls, Subways, Air ports, Bus Depots, are the targets; these are areas of massive people movement where the enemy can inflict collateral damage in a very short time. So, to support the Military in its passionate work of diplomatic achievement I do wholeheartedly, but to support 5 billion dollars wasted fighting the hills of Afghanistan at the loss of Canadian shoulders and tax payer money I am not going to waist my time to be some one I don’t want to be. A Hypocrite! No pun indented, I do respect your patriotism and I do not question it!

Thanks for removing my post! :roll:.

How can Socrates be allowed to post such a BS Disrespectful and Tasteless Thread like this on the Day Four Canadian Soldiers Died! Talk about Bloody Hypocrisy! :evil: :roll:

Typical is the moral quandary to leave a country
where you let the Taliban or al Qaeda take over.

Typical is the moral quandary of leaving Dafur to
languish yet insist you are righteous about not
enterring into any war.

The Moral Dilemna of action or no action will
persist enough to cause any country's righteousness
into doubt.

 

[FiveParadox]

Johnny Utah, I would urge you not to attempt to question the judgement of any of the Administrators or Moderators on the open forum, you are only going to get yourself into trouble — send a private message to one of them it you would like to take issue with one or more of their decisions, in private.

 

[jimmoyer]

Both posts could be deemed offensive or sincere,
depending on your partisan point of view.

I tend to side with Johnny Utah's disgust because:

RE: The War in avganistan

Johnny Utah, my post is my respect for the dead shoulders of not only today, in the past and future; I mentioned here that the shoulders do not have to die. I respect democracy and killing on either side is the cost of war that no one can justify. “But to support 5 billion dollars wasted fighting the hills of Afghanistan at the loss of Canadian shoulders and tax payer money I am not going to waist my time to be some one I don’t want to be”.
To see Harper change the traditional lowering of the flag at a time of morning of the dead shoulders is not a move which represents respect. It is a personal ideologue which doesn’t see eye to eye with the general populous.
Socrates is not a bad guy, he hates war!

 

[jimmoyer]

Socrates, you'll never remove yourself from the
moral dilemna, nor claim comfort in the
righteous zone.

To do nothing is quite a moral quandary too, inescapable
as you pride yourself on your position.
