Ya, some U.S. soldiers making Iraqi prisoners form a human pyramid for the sake of a photo goof is as bad as killing prisoners, mutilating their corpses, then hanging them from the bridge. Yes, we are all the same. :aok

You never struck me as an anarchist.

"Documents from an April 2 military court hearing in Iraq for Sergeant Frederick provide new details about the abuse. The documents show that Specialist Matthew Carl Wisdom, of the 372nd Military Police Company at Abu Ghraib, appeared in the hearing and described some of the acts of abuse he saw.
"I went down to Tier 1 (the cellblock where much of the abuse is said to have occurred) and when I looked down the corridor, I saw two naked detainees, one masturbating to another kneeling with its mouth open," he is quoted as saying. "I thought I should just get out of there. I didn't think it was right, as it seemed like the wrong thing to do. I saw Staff Sergeant Frederick walking towards me, and he said, `Look what these animals do when you leave them alone for two seconds.' " "

Filling
3 dried black mushrooms
2 ounces dried bean thread noodles or dried rice stick noodles
1 small carrot, julienned
1 cup thinly sliced napa cabbage
3 green onions, sliced
1/2 pound boneless chicken
Marinade
2 tablespoons chicken broth
1 tablespoon oyster flavored sauce
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon Chinese five-spice
1 tablespoon cooking oil
12 spring roll or egg roll wrappers, cut in half diagonally
Cooking oil for deep-frying
Method
l. Soak mushrooms in warm water cover until softened, about 15 minutes; drain. Trim stems and thinly slice caps. Soak bean threads in warm water to cover until softened, about 15 minutes; drain. Cut bean thread noodles into 4-inch lengths. Combine mushrooms and bean thread noodles in a bowl and add remaining filling ingredients; mix well.
2. Cut chicken into thin slices then cut slices into thin strips. Combine marinade ingredients in a bowl. Add chicken and stir to coat. Let stand for 10 minutes.
3. Place a wok over high heat until hot. Add 1 tablespoon oil, swirling to coat sides. Add chicken and stir-fry for 1-1/2 minutes. Add filling ingredients and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Remove the chicken mixture to a bowl and let cool.
4. To make each spring roll, place a triangular wrapper on work surface with long side facing you; keep remaining wrappers covered to prevent drying. Place 2 tablespoons filling in a band along base of wrapper. Fold bottom over filling, then fold in left and right sides. Brush edges with water and roll up to completely enclose filling.
5. Heat oil in a wok to 360 degree F. Deep-fry spring rolls, a few at a time, and cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Exchanging recipes instead of gunfire would be a ****ing good start. ;)

well.. then rav... like everything else... I guess it's just a matter of degree then isn't it? the more brutal the enemy the more brutalizing it is to fight them... the indian wars and the pacific wars were good examples.
sorry if that isn't the answer you wanted but it is the truth.

here's my recipe. It may sound stupid but its what I think. First some brainiac develps one of the two: A car that gets 250MPG or a hydrogen fuel cell that's cheaper. He freely gives this technology to the world and the entire arab region is now irrelevent when it comes to global policy. We completly ignor them and let them all kill themselves off until the problem goes away
-
I couldn't agree more with you Lasz. We are supposed to be good at marketing and propoganda and we are losing that battle in spades.
Gunslinger: with the problem of Israel, making oil irrelevant will only be part of the solution. Good Idea though.
Thanks for the spring roll recipe, dead, I'll give it a try!

OK here's how we fix isreal. We give both israel and palistine a battlebot. We give them an arena and make them fight it out. Bot bots have to be of equal power (just to make it fair for the libral scumsucking terrroirst lovers).
I say best 2 out of 3 wins. The losing side has to STFU and the winning side gets to depants the losers.
....I may be onto somthing here

rav.. I would also like to add that the number of soldiers that give in to brutality is a measure of a countries integrety and humanity. The "matter of degree" thing. In this case there is simply no comparrison in both number of incidents or severity.
I would also like to say that America has allway been a country that has used its free speech to examine it's flaws.. I think that the fact that we examine our flaws so openly is one of the things that makes us so strong.

oh thats easy.
Global thermonuclear war
No more people=no more war = peace
Inasmuch as so long as there are two people still within shouting distance of one another there will always be conflict
