Ripsnort I do agree that the current results are more desirable over the alternatives - Muslem nutjobs focusing on our forces in Iraq vs NYC or London.

But to attribute it this situation to some "brilliant move" by the CIC I do not. That's one HUGE leap of logic and it reeks of this "partisan politics" b.s you like to accuse others of.

Ripsnort quote:

Let me ask you Dowding, what have to done to support your British troops fighting abroad?

We continue to make up food stuffs baskets for Marines we'll never meet, 4 each month, since the beginning of the conflict.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dowding: "In order to provide bragging rights on an internet BBS. How noble. How utterly selfless. I bow down to your practically saintly sacrifices. Clearly I am not worthy to even compare what I have done for my servicemen."

So your answer would be nothing, then?

lol Dowding

I think there was a very loud noise in Ripsnort's eardrums right now. Sending cookies to the homies in Baghdad --> Good. Tellin about it on the internet --> Baaad

Don't presume one is doing nothing because he doesn't publicise it rip. Not everyone can or want to. (something might be lost in the translation here... you'll get the meaning, I'm sure)

Actually muckmaw, you'll find I subscribe to the view that private charitable donations are your own business. It is a personal thing, not like carpeting your garage and telling all the world about it. I give money to the RAF benevolent fund every year. Not much, but I'm not flush with cash. Besides, I'm sure they value every penny they get.

Now, maybe when I'm an old fart, bloated with self-importance, I'll make hampers up for the lads abroad and then boast about it on some BBS. I will mistakenly believe it will add significance to my opinions about how our servicemen are definitely not bait in a brilliant strategy that I myself have devised.

But then again, not even I could be that retarded. Hopefully.

Iraq is a quagmire, and religious terrorism will not stop untill you fix the problem at its source not killing its followers( that will only breed more). And removing saddam from power will not accomplish that. We have our own home grown terrorists right here in america screaming about the will of god as they run into an abortion clinic to set off a bomb.
And ripsnort, exactly how many of your friends are over in iraq. Do you know how they feel about the mess? My generation is fighting this war. Maybe if you had some friends getting shot at everyday *****ing about our lying idiot president you might feel different. Isreali policy does not work.

lol, a liberal comedy website has done far more then any of you knuckleheads. Somethingawful.com raised 17k to buy the troops body armor the bush admin. wont pay for. I think the 30 bucks i donated will mean alot more then a couple of ripsnorts cookies.

I know and have met Rip...he is a good man and a good father and husband.

To insult him because you disagree with his politics is petty and telling.

Not changing the topic Rip, just adding to it.
This wonderfull tactic you speak of wasn't required. Afghanistan was the place to go to attack Al Q head on. They were, and are there. Why the need to pull out? To Invade another country so as to concentrate them elsewhere?

Yes Afgh has adopted a constitution, yet how valid is it if the majority of the country is actually run by feudal warlords.
Womens rights? Cmon, there is serious trouble brewing in the capital because they still dont recognize the rights of women to appear on and sing on TV. Go out into the provinces and see how well those worthless peices of paper are treated there.
If the Coalition, Nato pulls out of Afgh the current government will fall lickety split just as it did when Russia pulled out.
This brings us now to Iraq. You know full well the reason to go into Iraq was not to bring terrorists into the country to fight them on the battlefield, you had that opportunity in Afgh.

I have friends there....one is returning for a second dose. What's your point?

They are not against this effort....they support Bush and if anything, fear another CC like Clinton, who allowed them to die in Somalia and then turn tail and pull out.

We'll never know what world threat could have come from Iraq had it been left as is, and Iraq is centrally located between two countries that openly harbor al Qaida terrorists, Syria and Iran. Tactically brilliant!

im guessing they would have rather had clinton not realize that bush the first made a mistake going into there in the first place, and continue to feed troops into a meat grinder like we are doing in iraq. Bravo!

You are grasping with that one.

Confused? Unsure? INVADE.

Pakistan has a whole pile of terrorists and sympathizers in house.
China is full of Communists.
My suggestion is, Invade India

Only in your opinion...if you spoke in the manner you do on this board in their presence, that speech would come at a price.
