As reported today, the US military dropped 18,144kg bombs on a rural area Arab Jabour claiming to be a safe haven for al-Qaeda in Iraq.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial]You see we will talk about the civilian died but about three weeks ago the same US military claimed that Arab Jabour is safe.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana,Arial]In this Radio Sawa interview - 11-12-2007 - with the commander of the American Third Infantry Division Captain Joseph Inge he said the following:[/FONT]

So there was a previous house to house ground assault which drove out the civilians and then the Americans called them back and then they were bombed. Typical attack on civilian targets, commonly called terrorism.

Well lets look at the basics, Japan suffered massive firebombing and atomic bombing .

Tokyo lost half of its free standing structures, far worse than anything in Iraq.

Somethings you don't need exact numbers for. If I asked you to show me concrete numbers that the riot after the 1998 high school dance in Sackville Kentucky was less than the damage done to Iraq, you would be hard pressed to find concrete numbers to back that up.

That being said, you shouldn't need to since its plainly visible which one is worse.

Iraq has not suffered anywhere near the damage of WWII nations.

No country like ours or the U.S. existed before the British Empire. Empires come and go, yes, but England will yet stand at least 1,000 years, perhaps then as happy province of one world government, or an historical relic beloved by its people, decisions that the English will never surrender to anyone, and are not yet in sight.

I understand this, and that is all that I was saying, but you're not thinking as far ahead as I am. And I said borders. Nova Scotia will probably always be called Nova Scotia. What you quoted from me said Borders, I didn't say Countries.

During the intervening centuries you would do well to face the similar reality that something called the United States of America may last longer than something called Egypt, and it may not because Egypt may last another 5,000 years.

Perhaps you should read what I type more clearly then, because I was hinting more towards another level of governmental structure which is over top of countries, which countries are overtop of states/proviences, which are over top of a county, city/town, street, property, house, you're living room/bedroom, you're computer desk and chair, You.....

Not to attempt to brag, but I am told I have an IQ of 164, whatever that means, but I guess it means I think a little differently.

You would do well to Keep up.

You are now so far ahead you think you're last. The notion that borders like the theoretical construct we erected at the 49th parallel, will "need to be removed" is as factual as the idea that land ownership or jurisdiction will be vested in one world governmentr. Not being a conspiracy theorist, I do not fear one world government, but see it as a glorious future to be achieved with the U.N, over the next few centuries. Some of the institutions that we've set up will last longer than the Catholic church.

And none of that was what I was talking about either. There are many other alternatives then what the fearmonger conspiritist like to pump up. In fact there are multiple ways of doing it very easily and peacefully. But then again.... everybody likes different things.

I have told you... I will not run a fool's errand for someone because they do not like me or my views for your ammusement. As you can see I am not following you so you've answered that question on who the bigger fool is. If you are incapable of noticing the differences in Germany and Japan immediatly after WWII in comparison to Iraq today I cannot help you. It is not an assumption, it is fact. The Axis countries (minus Italy) infrastructure was razed. Germany's food output was only 35% of what it was.

It doesn't even have to be an argument except for your immaturity.

I will not waste my time putting together a package to prove the obvious.

I said nothing about views just on something you said, something you say is fact yet call it a fools errand to prove such a fact. What is the difference between the nations after the war? Do you have stats for that as well? I'd love to see them.

Wow, you found a stat in your frantic google searches to find something....anything.....to back up what you said and guess what? It dosen't even do that.:lol:

You should write for Fox news....you'd fit right in. Or perhaps the dirty tricks department within the White House.:lol:

If you have nothing to add then go away and know that you have been pwnd.:lol:

Take care now.....and thanks for the laugh....if you're not anything else(your not) you sure are entertaining.

Praxius, "Not to attempt to brag, but I am told I have an IQ of 164, whatever that means, but I guess it means I think a little differently."

I guess so. Who told you? What test and scale do you refer to? What is the equivalent percentile on the modern scale of 100?

I have my papers from Mensa. I have the scores. I'm at the 99th percentile, which is pretty good because it's the highest one available. This qualifies me for nothing but to say to you that you are going nowhere with that kind of talk. Go ahead and think differently. I knew that you did. You think the superpower is finished and Canada soon too. You think that you see the future. But what you see are projected inadequacies and fear of failure.

Fun fact, Im actually part of the only study that studied IQ from mothers habits during pregnancy to adulthood (its Ottawa based).

Some fun facts:

Having a full meal can drop your IQ 20 points, a cup of coffee can jump it up 10. A full nights sleep, the amount of light and noise in the testing area..they all matter a whole lot. The other issue is the IQ test taken, cultural influences impact them alot.

What does it matter to you who told me, where I took the test, how long ago, which hand I masturbate, or if I think you smell nice or not? I love people like you who are so trvial and paranoid about your own position in society that you need to derail the topic for some petty argument about what someone said about their personal life.

It's irrelevent to the topic at hand, and I could be 54, 102, 110, or 2, it doesn't make a difference, and I'm not even going to entertain you with a ligitamate response, because quite honestly, I couldn't give a rats ass what you think of me. You can go suck a chestnut for all I care.

Pssh, seems like it didn't help you much. With the mentality you are expressing here in this thread alone either would mean you're lieing you ass off to make yourself sound cool... as I or youself could be peter pan for all it's worth in here. Or you could be actually telling the truth, and you fancy little papers you hold so dearly have rotted your mind into thinking your some great gift from god for all of us.... either way you're still an asshole and you're still not actually responding to any of the points presented. You continually go on the personal attack and avoid the points presented in relation to what everyone was talking about, therefore you have nothing worth while to actually contribute except to act like a total troll loser in a forum, trying to insult text on a computer screen.

I think you need to go back and be retested, because you're acting like you're in grade 5.... it's pathetic really.

Go ahead and think differently. I knew that you did. You think the superpower is finished and Canada soon too. You think that you see the future. But what you see are projected inadequacies and fear of failure.

You haven't even the 1st clue what you're talking about. You don't even know any fears of mine, what I think is going to happen in the future, or when I think the country Canada as we currently are, because I never even stated my opinions in detail about those things.

Quite frankly Buddy ol Pal of mine, you're talking sh*t out of your ass.... go brush your teeth, you stink.

You had your chance to actually express that you understand what maturity is and you apparently failed that, I'm not wasting my time with the likes of you. Next time perhaps you could show us some of that self proclaimed intelligence you seem to have packed away in that big mellon on your shoulders and post something that relates to the topic at hand.

so sad.

I personally don't hold any faith in IQ tests, which is why I never bothered to pay much attention to my test. I did it to kill time. You guys can do and enjoy whatever you like, I got no beef... but I don't base my life around numbers and papers with what people think I am based on their classifications. The moment you try to keep living up to whatever everyone else expects you to, then you're no longer living your life, but theirs. But to each their own.

Zzarchove, I had six cups of coffee. I was flyin'.

Praxius, "...Not to attempt to brag, but I am told I have an IQ of 164, whatever that means, but I guess it means I think a little differently."

It's you Praxius.

Praxius, "... I or youself could be peter pan for all it's worth..."

I guess I'd better agree. Just hold my hand!
