An interesting view on America.

[Wobble]

hitting a city, and hitting a military target in the middle of a city are 2 verry different..

pilots lives are too valuable and weapons too expensive to be dropping them on the already ruined city.. when a bomb lands in one of those citys there is a 99% chance that it was aimed at and probably hit something of military value.. be a a com tower, or a bunker, or a radar dish.. etc..

the fact that bombing civilians is wrong and all that PC crap, there is very little to gain by doing it anyway, and its a wast of expensive fuel, ord and time.. not to mention the rick of a plane getting shot down.. they only attack targets that are worth the time, risk and money.. remember these arnt el-cheapo artillary shells and dumbfire zuni rockets.. this is either high dollar million dllar bombs, or dumb bombs being dropped by high dollar high risk (well sort of) multi million/billion dollar aircaft.

You boys are not reading what the Comrade has written.  Those ignorant rantings were written by persons that Comrade supposes we(the USA) support.

Hey Wobble, hows it going down in Vic'? I haven't been there for a couple of years, but it was growing pretty good at that point.  Have you ever gone out to that old airfield there and seen what is lying around in the weeds?

You can have a differing point of view Boroda, just don't be a banana about it...

The understanding of American culture was about as poor as the writers command of the English language. Why don't you just go live in Russia Boroda, oh wait...

The new laws giving the police and FBI greater powers have a time limit of 5 years, not permanent.

Even after that, we can still vote to change them any time we want to....we just don't want to right now.  Hell, there is nothing preventing the United States from enacting any law at any time.  Just the will of the people.  We even made drinking alcohol illegal once upon a time.  

The great part about American government isn't the government, it is us and our votes.

More empty wishful thinking. "we screwed up so we hope we get to watch THEM screw it up too..."

Gadfly, you got my point  

Where, WHERE did I say I agree with this article?

I just want to show you the ideology of the enemy. OUR enemy.

I am surprised that US officials still insist that Russia should start negotiations with Chechen terrorists and withdraw troops from Chechnya.

Boroda, if you could give me an opinion of what kind of news comes from this site appears to be middle ground fact only type stuff.  I read it periodically to see whats outside my little box

Well, he did title this thread "An interseting view on America". I find the article only ignorant and self-serving. He was kinda asking for it.

I disagree with Boroda about 99% of the time, but he makes an interesting point here that you've completely missed.  The fact is that the article is ignorant and self-serving, and that was his point.  It was written by those we in America tend to look upon as freedom fighters rather than American-hating terrorists, yet they espouse the same sort of anti-Americanism as the Taliban or Al Queda.
