Ludicrous.

The Iraqi's shot a surface to air missile ballistically in the general direction of an E-2. This has absolutely nothing to do with ICBMs or the ABM treaty.

Oh dear.

Why don't we just nuke the bastards. The only good Iraqi is a dead Iraqi.

I was joking.

But your plan has merit.  ;)

I was at a party once,some dude I knew was leaving to join the marines.
Nice party,lots of drugs and alcohol,music girls etc.
As usual,we ran out of beer,so I hopped in a car with the soon-to-be-marine`s stepdad and the neighbor.I`m in the backseat,and these two are talking about Bosnia.It was at the time when they sent in the first UN units.
They disaggreed with sending US troops there,and the neighbor came up with a different solution.
He said since nuking the place would be too harsh,the US should just use chemical weapons on them bosnians.
"WTF" I was thinkin` to myself

I say let the Danes rule the world.

There'd be such a common hatred towards taxes that we'd all just fight one government.

Maybe we could even have a designated siland where those who wanted could fight it out.

Would be cool.

It has everything to do with both.

I would just like to point out that the British still rule the world and always will do. George Bush is actualy controled by the british who have picutres of him buggering a sheep.

So the americans do what we say. The americans tell the Iraqies the oposite of what the british want them to do. Because the iraqies always do the oposite of what the americans tell them to they will actualy be doing what we want them to do. So in all fairness the british have control over the whole world.
