Think of all them virgins those ded irakies are gettin up thar in heven. Strap a couple 'nades on your belt, charge the gate (or walk into the schoolyard, whatever), collect yer reward.
It struck me today during some mission planning that we'll never come to an agreement with some of "those people". We spend a great deal of our mission planning time ensuring that we have the best chance of making it home, while the average jihadi spends an equal amount of time planning on getting himself killed in a manner spectacular enough to attract his prophet's attention so he gets his virgins when he blows himself to bits.
I've talked to instructor pilots who've seen it firsthand... Islamic exchange student pilots from middle-eastern countries who scare themselves during training and release the controls and begin praying, completely comfortable with the idea that their last seconds are better spent praying instead of trying to save their own lives. Although I understand it on an intellectual level, that behavior goes against every "instinct" I have and I do not know if there will ever be enough common ground to bridge that gap.
I read a report on a fighter aircraft mishap recently... The pilot (from a hardcore islamic nation) lost control at low altitude, but still high enough to eject. Instead of ejecting, the pilot keyed the microphone and broadcast a curious mixture of terrified screaming and his final prayers. It's not easy for a westerner to give up like that but from what I heard/read, it made perfect sense to his peers.

The war in Iraq was started in 1953, and it was started in Iran.

No, I was referring to the other war in Iraq. The one where all the cool terrorist kids wanna go so they can fight US forces. The one that keeps them there in their own little sun baked sand blown fundamentalist delusional back yard dying by the thousands as opposed to coming over to MY country and starting trouble again. The one that protects and furthers the interests of MY nation and is being payed for in the blood of MY countrymen. The one I spent 12 months in the middle of and expect to spend 6-12 more in next year. My only regret: that I could have accomplished more in the time and the limited opportunities I was given. There's always next time.
By the way, Gixer, I couldn't care less how much a litre of gas costs in New Zealand. I don't have any idea whatsoever who the leader(s) of your country are nor do I care enough to learn. I am far beyond giving a dang what someone on the other side of the planet thinks about me, my country, or our geopolitical interests or how we choose to pursue them. It's all so inconsequential, you see..at least to me and the people I know and care for. What you, the nation of New Zealand, the people of the South Pacific, the indigenous kangaroo population or anyone else thinks goes far beyond my realm of influence and affects me personally in no way whatsoever. Don't like my country, our policies or our chosen leaders? Ok, get up and petition your government to put their foot down. Perhaps they'll liberate us.
Does this answer your question?

only people who it should be a war to are those fighting in it.. God Blesss our Armed forces
and STOP COUNTING THE DEAD.
i am not a soldier so i do not coment on the war. But please all the over opinionated guys behind the monitors. STFU

Well there we have it..the ultimate statement of delusional dishonesty.
We want to invade Iraq so that all the muslim fundimentalists will congregrate there to kill americans and they will not show up in alabama. Man its nice to hear from someone that has really been there.
Im sure the people of Iraq just love being the targets of both the US forces and the Muslim fundimentalists.
Nice to have some honesty out of someone who says he was there implementing the thing though. Was getting booring listening to all these brainwashed right wing nut jobs insisting it was something to do with freeing Iraq or finding WMD. It was really a big wasp trap with the US army as the sugar water and the Iraqi civilians as the victims.
What great strategy!

Who's being dishonest? I stated clearly exactly what it means to me and why it's important to me...honestly. Sure, it isn't the reason we went to the party, but it's a good enough reason to stay, IMO. I'm not at all surprised you disagree, but I must refer you to the spirit of paragraph 2 of my above post. Your opinion has been considered and appropriately filed.

your line of thought is impressive pongo. I dont believe I have ever read such lucidity coming from you and believe me, its a real treat.
Still, I am not swayed to your line of thinking. Not that there is a challenge in that. I just think you are wrong when all of the historical data is taken into consideration.

The war in Iraq? Well they didn't start that one did they? And your countrymen like Britains are paying for a political mistake.
As for NZ and it's leaders, NZ's leader hardly effects the world with it's decsions like Bush, what he does effects us all.

I would suggest taking this up with the U.N. They know how to handle despotic country leaders.

I applaud your honesty at cutting away the crap. I am afraid that your straw grasping to find some reason to continue is delusional. But the honest is refreshing.
-
So I'm being honest in a delusional dishonest way? What *are* you trying to say, anyway?
I'm not grasping at straws, either, Pongo. My motivations have not necessarily paralleled the President's all along. I have always thought this was a good idea, but not for the same reasons as many other supporters. I've never claimed otherwise.

Funked likes to fly the LP banner, but I don't think I've ever seen him argue the LP position (http://www.lp.org/press/archive.php?function=view&record=555) on Iraq. Making light of the latest Iraqi bodycount is much more his style. (http://www.talkaudio.co.uk/vbb/images/smilies/whatever.gif)

If you've never seen it then you haven't paid attention. Also my support of the party does not imply agreement with every LP statement or position. And I wasn't making fun of the body count, so much as the tardriffic "I SAW IT ON TEH INTERNETS IT MUST BE TRUE" statfest.

This part of your post is the only thing in it I can agree with totally. The "affecting us all" doesn't necessarily follow. That office does not make ALL decisions in this country much less towards all other nations.

Gas is a $1.30 a litre. Sure it's not the sole cause of the price hike but having a war in Iraq and so much instability thanks to Bush's stupidity and rush to war hardly helps.
Though thankfully the US dollar is very weak at the moment thanks again to Bush so the gas price could be alot worse.
...-Gixer

So exactly how is Bush personally responsible for the price of gas in a small country on the other side of the planet? I suppose there are no choices of whom to purchase oil that your country could use. :rolleyes:

If you don't know how the oil market works I'm not going to explain it look it up on the web.

p.s. Did they count the 200+ Iraqi Women and Children executed by insurgents in the Samarra Mosque in the 'civilian death count'?
p.p.s. Eagl just come clean. Everyone knows that all the newer JDAMs and LGBs have special 'Little Kid Seeker' packages. Just be glad all those 'freedom fighters' haven't figured out that they should stop hiding behind kids, in Mosques, etc. If they ever did figure it out we'd be in some serious trouble, no? :)
