Title: Fighting in Najaf
Post by: SunTracker on August 22, 2004, 07:34:55 PM
I believe as long as Iraqi insurgents continue to fight us in 'open battles', the U.S. will win.

Hey maybe we can send John Kerry to Iraq. His great experience in winning the hearts and minds of the Vietnamese people can be put to good use there!

Lol It doesnt matter what type of battle it is we will win. If the gov. lets us fight. really fight.

 But alas I am not so sure that will happen now, been to much crying over holy cities etc. We once again have showen a weakness we didnt have to. So at this time I wont disagree with those that say stupid things like nash did.

And If kerry gets in all bets are off, you dont gain character over night.

Heh.... this war stopped being about actual, you know, war, ages ago.

And it's not being lost by the guys fighting it.

It was lost long before they even got there.

Nash, I disagree.   I'm too tired to fight ya on this.  In short, 9/11/2001 is the day I brought my newborn son Ian and my wife home from the Hospital.  My wife talked me out of enlisting at the ripe age of 28.   This chit's gone on long enough and needs to be hit head on and no more skirting the issue.   THEY (terrorists)chose this path,  they never saw this "war" happening.  They figured the US, UK and "allies" would tuck tail and run.  They were wrong.

I'll step off of my soapbox.  I will NEVER forget 9/11 for two reasons.  First, my son and wife, and the Victims, families and their friends.
