As far as NK reniged on their treaties; all nations do that.. the key here NK made a offer to us.. (they knew we caught them and tried to come clean..) And we shunned them (as we should)but the axis speech gave them justification for weaponising their stock..)


What part of shunned and (as we should) constitutes your comment:

No, what I see is you saying we should keep dealing with (and giving huge amounts of aid to) people that have clearly shown themselves to be untrustworthy.


Shunned from Dictionary.com =  To avoid deliberately; keep away from.

Caught red herring (whoops handed) in your lies, context, and feeble attack again or in your words "spin"  I see..

And note the post taken from was not edited for the slueths out there..

Note my argument is not; is NK trustworthy??  We all know they are not..  My argument is the axis of evil speech served as a catayst that got us into a big mess giving direct and on the record justification of self defense thru nuclear deterent.. with the Iraq campaign bolstering their case....

Toad when are you going to learn butting heads with me is like a mathmatical function..  

Like a right triangle having 90 degrees; it is also a "given" that Toad vs DoctorYo = DoctorYo proves Toad wrong..

Now write that on the chalk board a 100 times for your homework assignment..

I am still wondering how Voss got put into the argument.   This was an intertaining thread untill then.....   Guess it could not be a discussion on merits, or issues....  Is the Voss card  a wild card to throw when you dont like the way the argument was turning...

Ah now i have issues..  can you be more specific..  issues, all of mankind has issues  please elaborate..  and look up farceurs when you get a chance...

:D



So if i prove toad (your cohort) wrong (yet again i might add) and catch his feeble word in my mouth lies and banter and then rub his own crapola back in his face and predict cohorts attempt to whitnoise this thread as some form of defence; then i have issues..??

Oh and lets not forget attempted censorship when the folly doesn't go your way with this comment..

Trell the Voss card as you say is synonymous with farceur hence being a insult (not really becuase he was their CO in AW) by me naming him as their commander..  my favorite Synonym of which at Dictionary.com being "top banana".. hope that clarifies....

Sure most countries have reneged on a treaty before.  When they think they can get away with it, or if circumstances change after the signing of the treaty and it's no longer in their best interest to support it.  The only thing that really supports a treaty, in the end, is respect for what the other guy will do to you if you dont hold up your end.  NK has basically flipped us the bird, and knows we cant do much about it without causing irreparable harm to that corner of the world.  They never tried to come clean, they admitted what they wanted to admit, in the time frame which they chose to work to their advantage.  The entire affair was INTENDED to come out, so they could use their unique position to blackmail the world.  Nothing we did or said gives them a justification for developing nuclear weapons.  Because if anyone in this day and age would use them, its NK.

(you think china wants a nuclear armed NK next to them, Id say no.. but by us justifiying clear and present danger to them they had bargaining chips...  Same thing with Iran right now ...  its clear they are weaponising their stock too.... but again they can say look at our neighbor Iraq thats not happing here if we are nuclear armed... (trump card epecially with our all time low of international credibility)   Look at the US's posture towards india and pakistan after their nuclear programs got going..  Hence these other nations want the one thing that will deter the superior USA/coalition conventional force.. nuclear arms..  

China doesnt fear a nuclar NK so much, although I'm sure they would be much happier if nukes didnt spread too much.  Its still a huge measure of power to have a nuclear arsenal, even if you dont plan to use it.  China has always had pretty good relations with NK though, one of the few govornments that can talk to them and get them to listen.  It doesnt bear much beyond a passing resemblance to the tense situation with Iran though.  With NK, the main target is Japan, a mostly disarmed and pacifist country that would need a huge boost to overcome their legal and moral blocks to starting a war.  Also, NK fully realizes the delicate nature of the balance of power in the East, and are just playing a game to get something they want.  Iran OTOH, denys any involvement with nukes at all, and could very well start a war if Israel is pushed too far and attacks them.  Unlike the Far East, the Middle East is already destablized and while a war with Israel would send the whole region up in flames, the world economy wouldnt suffer so much because there is no real input and/or output other than oil.  And its not going anywhere.  Access might be tough for awhile, but there are other sources until it cools down.

Its could be avoided if we respect these people in the first place.. Im not saying kiss their arse but basic diplomatic respect should be paramount and maintained with all countries even if we despise them..  It gives us more options tactically if things get hairy


I agree with you on this one hundred percent.  To a point.  No matter what anyone feels about our president personally, or about his decisions, I think most people would agree that (at least until proven otherwise), everyone is deserving of respect, and that alienating most of our supporters was not the best of moves.  Granted, there can be an argument made that if they didnt want to support us when things got tough, they werent much of a support to start with, but everyone is entitled to an opinion.  However, I think we are beyond the point where we have to strain to keep diplomatic relations with a country that is against everything we belive in and strive to protect.  Many of the European countries tried that with Hitler, and they paid the price.  I hope no one ever pays such a price again for trying to promote peace.  A sad fact, but I think the best route for our foreign policy can be summed up by the famous quote from Teddy Roosevelt "Speak softly, but carry a big stick."  Or maybe Patton's "Lead me, follow me, or get the hell outta my way."

Abu jail...  violation...  Bridge jump murders  violation, head shot wounded man... violation, and whatever other atrocities have been commited by our forces.. My guess once we pull out of iraq in the next ten years IMO war crimes will be brought...  If they indict pinochet after all this time what makes you think the world cant indict Rumsfield or others for this...  Then whats going to happen when we drop out of Geneva conventions to protect them..  heh  geneva conventions are more for the treatment of our soldiers than the opposing force..  think about it...


Soldiers get carried away sometimes.  Thats why we need quality men and women as officers, who are trained to deal with the emotions that can take away a soldier's judgment skills at a time when they are needed most.  Unfortunately, even the officers fail sometimes.  They are only human.  Person for person, I'd stand our military up next to any other in the world and shine the light of truth on them, and I'm betting I'd find far less to be embarrassed about than most others can claim.  Yes bad things happen.  We try to minimize them, try to make up for them when they happen, but in the end we must go on because if we give up before the end result is reached, then every thing that happend, every life that was lost is all in vain.  I personally dont like whats happening in Iraq, but I dont have any answers better than the ones being offered, so I'll not gripe just for the sake of griping.

Yes and I Believe that it is "Was"  I wonder how many of them have even flown with Voss or even ever talked to him.  that is like comparing every one in Germany to Hitler because he "was" there commander Years ago.


I am Just adding my 2 cents  (about 1.67 cents Euro  lol)

I am not sure If I would consider Japan defenseless,  If I remember correctly,  they have a very good defense force.  both in size and strength..  They just have never used it.  It has to be considered a defense force and not an army for political reasons .  I don't think Japan thinks of our bases there as much of protection,  more as in a show of alliance, and for economical reasons.

So?

They already HAD nukes, they had tossed the inspectors, they had round-filed the agreements.

So BUSH put us in a "big mess"?

Nah, I think maybe Kim's building nukes made a "big mess". You can either pretend it didn't happen and keep dealing with him or you can take Bush's approach; call it for what it is.

I like calling it for what it is, myself.

I do enjoy reading your diatribes, however, especially your continual declarations of egotistical victory. You can't simply debate; you have to make it some personal triumph, imagined though it may be.

to give you an answer please ask any  9 out of 10 Belgians your question and tell me what response you get... thats my answer..

Also note Toad is always shoving lies and banter into peoples mouth even though there is text like 3 posts above to the contrary hoping that what he might consider the simian imparied may not notice or rebuttal.   Now in terms of Voss he too also had such a arrogance in leeching and schemes.. So I find it Ironic that they both share the same squad name and pointed fun at it thats all...

This is not a voss thread nor a 13th tas thread for that do a search for the mother of all voss threads with some 2000+ posts.. I think the name was the Voss Conspiracy.....

But if certain people put lies and words into what was clearly written I will rebuttal such foolishness with extreme prejuduce as anyone else should when encountering slander and hearsay...

Last Of topic post on this subject for me as well my friend.

I don't agree or disagree with either you or toad on the actually subject.  All I was calling you on was that pulling The Voss card,  seems to me as a way to blow off an argument that you may have been losing(  when you post something like that it looks like a call for help because you are getting your bellybutton kicked in an argument... and painting a squad who does not have any ties will Voss will a mile wide Brush.  There was no other call that I can see for even bringing it up,  Yes I know about the 2000+ thread on the topic,  but it looks like to be that you were trying to hide behind that.  If I remember correctly the last time he surfaced he was not even off this squad.

you can brush off my comparison as extreme all you want but even a blind man or even 9 out of 10 Belgians  (no I could not find any to ask)  can see the same stupid connection.

I would think that Nk would be under china's sphere of influence.  with as close as they are I would hope that if china really does not want nk acting up that they would pull then to heal..

DoctorYo,

you do have issues, especially when you set up a patsy excuse for losing any discussion before it starts.  Are you afraid of discourse?  I think so, especially when you set up a pansie arse excuse like you did.  

Remember, I said nothing in support or against your argument other than YAWN.  Which supports my stance on the issue...

The NK's will sabre rattle like they always do, we and the world will do something to appease the little tyrants, and the world will continue on it's same old path.  

Keep in mind, the NK economy is a shambles.  They can afford no offensive action other than overt nuclear or WMD type strikes.  That will only ensure their destruction.... so, as always, they will bark like a junk yard dog, but in the end, it is only a bark.

As for blame about this whole thing, how about you blame Truman for not allowing Macarthur to end this nonsense in the early '50's....

Sheesh, so many people are always about the blame, NEVER on a solution.
