Boroda:
Well, the Iraqi's are welcome to TRY and shoot-down American aircrews. And they are welcome to the sand-turned-to-melted-glass the survivors will find their sorry-ass countryside turned into.
Saddam Hussein isn't even worthy of discussion. Users of chemical warfare, and other atrocities, deserve no respect, no quarter, and no peace.
And if one attacks American(or British)military personnel, be prepared to have your bellybutton whupped. Bigtime.
No tears for Saddam the Megalomaniacal Moron here. Or for any of his stooges/flunkies that get in the way of well-aimed HAARMS.
War is Hell. Especially for the losers.
You know, America financed your war with the Germans, rebuilt Germany(while your rather brutal and thuggish Soviet Empire SUBJUGATED half of Germany for 40 years) and Japan, and assisted rebuilding most of Europe after WWII. To suggest that Americans are brutal occupiers, hegemonists, and "uber alles" is an insult. An ignorant one to be sure, but still an insult.
Sometimes i think the world WOULD have been better-off if the USA DID occupy and eliminate the local populations of Europe and replace them with Americans after WWII.
But nah, my better American nature takes hold, and i quit thinking like the jealous, decadent, backward denizens of the OLD WORLD.
