Quit bitching. don't we always cut you guys in on the booty?
Seriously though, you coming in here and throwing your blanket of guilt over all Americans shows the same mentality as firing mortars into a city. You don't care who you hit as long as the ones you consider to be guilty are on the receiving end. I voted for Kerry, as did most of the sailing states. You might consider developing more of a sniper-poster mentality. Scout |

Guess they should all fill out a request for new uniforms, send it off to HQ and then turn up at barracks for a fitting. Cheer up, when the fighting is over in Falluja we'll have a "Mission Accomplished II". GWB prancing around in his flight suit should bring a smile to your face. |

Use the power of Neotech for yourself! You can do it. Good words but you know me. I have to voice my concern, it's a matter of integrity. If I did nothing then how then could I reconcile my inaction with my dissent? Cheers |

It explicitly discusses treatment of civilians. Anyway, perhaps that is their uniform? Cheers |
No my intent is to prompt you to carry the ideas further.

You aren't afraid to parade your ignorance in public, are you? Is there not any subject that you don't know anything about? Regards Donal -- |
I remember what you said in the beginning about the occupation being much
more difficult than the war. Despite all the hoots and catcalls you stood your ground. You've my respect. Read that Neotech stuff. I think you will gain some insight from it.

Max Guess they should all fill out a request for new uniforms, send it off to HQ and then turn up at barracks for a fitting. It would be the thing to do, IF they wished to be accorded the protections of the Geneva Conventions. Something tells me they really don't care. Only the non-Islamic detractors of the US seem to find this to be an issue. Max |
