Blair needs to pop off 15 cruise missles now, and then give them about one hour to release the crew or send in another 15 missles. Joe Problem is that GB's only allies, aside from former British colonies like Canada and OZ, is us...so once again there would be no world backing for anything like that...the prevailing sentiment from the rest of the world is "Why were you there to begin with?" so there won't be any help that way..and the UN is a joke so you know there won't be any help there. It would be nice, though, if GB would lob something at someone as an initial action so they could take the heat instead of us for a change. Heat? Well if the rest of the world feels it's wrong to liberate people from a tyrant like Saddam, and go after mass murders like Al Queida then thats their problem. We do not need thier approval. Let's face it, they are jealous of America, so the only way they can feel good is to imigrate and become American, or find ways to try to tarnish our accomplishments. Hopefully theses ********s that bitch about America will some day move into the modern age and become sufficent enough to not be so angry and jealous. Joe |

Saddam and AQ are totally different. We should have gone after the latter. Instead, we went after the former. A war of choice rather than necessity. 3000 US soldiers dead, 25K wounded, 100s of 1000s of Iraqi innocents dead, and civil war. -- Capt. JG @@ www.sailnow.com |

The team surrendered Jon.... Never mind, you do not have a clue. Umm... you were making the point that you couldn't understand why they didn't fight back. I said that the Iranians were probably well-armed. Now, you say they were surrounded. Sounds like not dying was the right thing to do. Do you not have a clue? Probably. You don't have to actually hit someone to get a confession. Everyone knows the "confession" would be coerced, so why go through the actual beating. Would you confess to another country if you did no wrong? If I was threatened with torture, especially if I knew that no one would believe it.

So far, they haven't killed or likely tortured anyone. Such unmitigated BS. Saddam and AQ are totally different. Both were terrorist supporters that needed to be delt with. Bush lied about the reasons for attacking Iraq. If he would have said, because he's a bad guy and he's torturing/killing his own people, then maybe he wouldn't have 25% support and actually did the right thing for the right reason. Saddam was contained and not a threat to us. But, keep telling yourself he was if it makes you feel better. We should have gone after the latter. Instead, we went after the former.

BTW, how come you're not so upset about the 100s of 1000s in Darfur who are being killed by terrorists there? Or, do they not count because they have darker skin? -- Capt. JG @@ www.sailnow.com |

Sounds like not dying was the right thing to do. Do you not have a clue? Where did I say they were surrounded? Thought you did. I don't have access to the entire thread from my boat. And do you expect to loose every fight? Using the word "every" basically means that you're ignoring what I said. Fingernail extraction before dis-honoring my country. Knowing my commrades in arms are on they way to my rescue. Easy to say Joe until you're the one in the hot seat. Typical response if you don't value human life. So far, they haven't killed or likely tortured anyone. Typical bend over and take it liberal attitude. Typical response when you've run out of logic... attack the messenger. If we delt with Iran in 1979 then maybe hostage taking would not be so popular. Carter tried. Raygun attempted to bribe them. Did you miss the part about calling ahead and letting them know the targets so they can clear them? Huh? But, keep telling yourself he was if it makes you feel better. Keep your blinders on Jon, if you think he was a honest guy willing to live up the the surrender treaty he signed then go and keep thinking that if it makes you feel better. Never said Saddam was honest or willing to live up to his commitments. There was never a surrender treaty. We invaded Iraq based on lies and deception. The President and/or the Vice-President conspired to out an undercover CIA agent to punish Joe Wilson for speaking the truth. The Attorney General mislead Congress about his involvement in the firing of federal prosecuters. Bush lied about Rumsfeld. 1000s died, were horribly injured all because Bushco was fixated on Saddam. And, we attacked the Taliban and Al Queda in Afganistan. Nothing to do with Iraq. BTW, how come you're not so upset about the 100s of 1000s in Darfur who are being killed by terrorists there? Or, do they not count because they have darker skin? Why? We didn't wait to invade Iraq because of the Kurds... at least that's what the right-wing is now saying was the reason.

Why?, well maybe the folks in Dufar are not shooting missles at our pilots in the NO FLY ZONE. Maybe the folks in Dufar are not a clear and present danger to the USA. Whats wrong with other countries dealing with Dufar, they know we are busy. Joe I'm waiting for France or Russia, or Germany, China, Japan, Mexico, Cuba, or Canada to deal with Dufar. -- Capt. JG |
