Vulcan excuse me, but I'm posting rubbish?

If we're strict about the subject, your government attacked Iraq with the reason being an immediate threat to the US. It had officically nothing to do with liberating Iraq from Saddams rule, that came as a side effect.

So far nothing backs up the claims made before the war, so you're standing on shallow ground if we search for justification.

The outcome may be good, even the intent might be good. But the effect of pre-emptive strikes on the international community may lead into a divided planet once again. Only difference being this time it's not US / USSR anymore, it's coalition / non-coalition.

That setup sounds awfully much like what happened in the birth of WW2.

Hell you're right, I'm just a keyboard politician and I truly don't have ready answers for these issues. I don't think anyone has. All I know is that I hate to see people suffering no matter if it's Saddam or George doing the deeds.

I must admit I used to be as racist as the psuedo intellectuals regarding Iraqis' ability to govern themselves, but I've changed my mind and I think it's worth a try regardless.

Siaf__csf is simply a drive by anti-american post tease, a phoney, full of meaningless noise and bluster.. he ain't from angola, his message is 'american equals imperialitic warmonger(s)' intent on what ever the worlds ugly evil bad thing of the day is.

he deserves as much attention as your brown-eye does after pinching off a good loaf.

Puke the point is that by controlling the media it's easyer to stop the anti-war movements of the country.  

Siaf, yes, you post complete rubbish.  Our media is definitely not controlled and there are in fact media from all over the world imbedded with the troops.  I would guess the majority of people are against war in general, it's costly in so many ways.  But many of us recognize when force is necessary.  And this conflict did not open any new ballpark to international relations.  How old are you?  Don't you read history?  I'm of the opinion that the only thing that will ever unite this planet of ours would be the attack by creatures from elsewhere, sadly.  Otherwise, we tend to squabble and fight be it between nations, north vs south, state vs state or even high school vs high school.  But back to the point, there is no control of the media and there are so many avenues to go for the news be it the miriad of newspapers to news channels, radio and the Internet.  To think GW or our military can control all that means your tinfoil cap is cutting off the oxygen to your brain.  Posting photos of severed limbs does not prove any point about there being a fair and non-biased media, none whatsoever.  It's no more news-worthy than faces of smiling Iraqis welcoming our troops or helping out in reclaiming our POWs.  Go rent Faces Of Death if you want to see blood, or view that posting placed here somewhere of the Russian soldier being murdered if that's what you need to feel proof the media isn't controlled.

Now you are being ridiculous.  Combat is still ongoing.  I take it you firmly believe that combat can be completed, the investigation of records and interrogation of VIPs can be completed, the search for WMDs completed, peace and order in the cities and a new government up and running w/out burp or hiccup can be completed in 4-weeks.  You are a madman.  Right now, job one is to supress and defeat resistance before any serious effort on those other accounts can begin.

Here's the thing, war is ugly and it's a shame people have to die.  But the suffering is almost over.  No more starvation in Iraq by the UN for their 2.2% skim off the top of the Oil For Food debacle where even buying a refrigerator for the local butcher is next to impossible.  No more murder by Saddam or by his son who would've followed him as the leader in Iraq and might've lasted another 50-yrs or more of grotesque murder of who knows how many innocent people.  Can't you see the forest for the trees?

And ya know, I was thinking the same thing. We agree on something.

Instead of entering into a debate with a person who admittedly is just tweeking people looking for heated reaction, he cut to the chase called it as he saw it and moved on to the next.

I would put a few others on that same list, but that will wait.

People who use the emotion of these times to inflame others just to get them inflamed, who could really give a rats bellybutton about the real issues and do nothing but stir the pot are truly idiots.

What Is An AFDB?[/size]
 
An Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie (AFDB) is a type of headwear that can shield your brain from most electromagnetic psychotronic mind control carriers. AFDBs are inexpensive (even free if you don't mind scrounging for thrown-out aluminium foil) and can be constructed by anyone with at least the dexterity of a chimp (maybe bonobo). This cheap and unobtrusive form of mind control protection offers real security to the masses. Not only do they protect against incoming signals, but they also block most forms of brain scanning and mind reading, keeping the secrets in your head truly secret. AFDBs are safe and operate automatically. All you do is make it and wear it and you're good to go! Plus, AFDBs are stylish and comfortable.

What are you waiting for? Make one today!



* FOOTNOTE: The American spelling** of aluminum is used here. If you are searching for more information on aluminum, be aware that the British spell it "aluminium" (and pronounce it accordingly).

** HISTORICAL FOOTNOTE: Aluminum was originally named "alumium" by Sir Humphry Davy, who later changed it to "aluminum" (perhaps in an attempt to make it more Latinized since alumen is Latin for alum, the aluminum compound that the name is derived from). The British (and allied English speakers) shortly thereafter changed the name once more, this time to "aluminium" so that it would again match the pattern of most other elements (helium, sodium, etc.), while the North Americans eventually decided to keep the second, slightly more traditional name. I predict that North Americans will adopt the more regular "-ium" spelling by the year 2050, prompting the British to start calling it "alumininium". At that point debate can begin on changing "platinum" to "platinium"

Quick Instructions For Building An AFDB[/size]


    • 1  Get a five foot sheet of aluminum foil (standard one foot wide Reynolds Wrap brand will do nicely.)

    • 2  Fold the sheet four times into five equal segments so that you end up with a 1x1 foot square, making sure that you fold over the dull side of the foil leaving the square shiny on both sides.
       
    • 3  Use scissors to cut from one corner of the square to the center, making a straight line.

    • 4  Bend the foil from one side of the cut under the other, making a slight cone. Again, make sure that the outside of the cone has a shiny side of the foil; this is VERY important.
       
    • 5  Place the cone on your head and squash the top and sides to make it fit snugly.

    • 6  Apply Scotch tape liberally making sure to secure the cut in the foil and any form-fitting creases made in step 5.

    • 7  Use more tape to secure AFDB to your cranium.


    A Note About The Shiny Side:[/size]

    It can't be stressed enough how important it is to have the shiny side pointing out. This is needed because the shiny side is most reflective to psychotronic radiation, while the dull side can actually, in certain environmental conditions, absorb it. However, as is illustrated in the instructions above, it is also wise to complement this with a layer of foil pointing shiny side in. This will keep your brain waves, which are also reflected by the shiny side, from being picked up by mind-reading equipment. There is a small number of aluminum foil researchers who believe that this may cause an alpha-wave harmonic to build up in the skull resulting in memory loss or pseudo-religious visions, but their findings have never been replicated by the aluminum foil research community at large. Even if their findings are validated, the risk involved is small compared to the potential of mind-intrusion.

    Foil Thickness:[/size]

    How thick is your aluminum foil? Find out using Zapato Productions Intradimensional's Aluminum Foil Thickness formula :

    ((mass / 2.702) / (width * length)) * 10000 = thickness in microns

    *If your foil is less than 16 microns, increase the number of layers used in construction.

    Optional:[/size]

    You may augment your AFDB with random bits of foil, wire, small electronic parts, etc..

    Canadian coins should also be considered as they are high in nickel content. Nickel, while not having the psychotronic deflecting properties of aluminum (or even tin), can act to refract psychotronic beams, thereby helping to scrambling the mind control signals as they are deflected off of the underlying aluminum surface of the AFDB. This will result in a lowered chance of retransmission of the signal.

    However, you should avoid American and European coins at all costs as they contain aluminum based mind control circuitry. Canadian coins are free of this threat mainly due to the Canadian government's choice of neglecting psychotronic research in favor of research into giant robotics.

    Tips:[/size]
    • Tinsel is made of plastic and has no anti-psychotronic attributes.
    • Painting your AFDB won't degrade its abilities, so you can be mentally safe AND color-coordinated too!
    • "Beer can hats", though made out of aluminum cans, are not as effective as an AFDB since they have gaps inbetween the cans. You may, however, line a beer can hat with an AFDB or even glue the cans directly on an AFDB.

    For once you're actually right. After reading his post re: Artic Storms Christian thing I see that he is just a sad little boy.

    Whats with this 'trolling' rubbish? Are people really that desperate for attention and have no lives so badly that they have to 'troll' this sort of crap on the net?

    Mebbe we should all pitch in and get him a hooker so he can finally loose his virginity and come into the real world.
