If we didn't take out Saddam, Israel was going to try to and we would have been drawn is as Israel's ally when the war escalated, a far worse position than just being the cowboys with bad intel. This has little to do with Israel, even though that's a convenient forgetting of the facts. You are the one forgetting the "facts." Here's a fair rendering of Israel's influence on the Iraq war, written before it started by former CIA policy analysts: http://www.counterpunch.org/christison1213.html It will explain to you how the Jewish Zionists and the "end of days" Christian Zionists came together happily in the Bush administration. Might be too much for your attention span though. BTW, Zionism is all about Israel. You remind me of the lower to middle class Teabaggers who support Republicans, manipulated into thinking that party has their interests at heart. All part of winger knee jerk psychology. Unfortunately our Afghan war has still put is in the position of being at war with Islam. Only in the eyes of the radicals. Unfortunately, they're very good at spreading that lie. Look at the hatred people in _this_ country have toward Muslims. All part of Zionism of any stripe. Maybe with the departure of Wall Street multi-millionaire Rahm Emanuel (middle name Israel, former Israeli Defense Forces worker, son of an Irgun terrorist, Israeli citizen, etc) from the Obama administration, the Arabs will get a fair shake. Uh-oh. Looks like I'm an anti-Semite. Funny. I see that Rick Sanchez got canned from CNN for saying his Jewish bosses and Jon Stewart are hardly "oppressed minorities." He only spoke the truth, and that got him fired. Maybe he really got fired because he's an asshole who thinks because his name is Sanchez he is automatically "oppressed," but who knows? Jim - If ignorance works for you, go for it. You seem to be going for the ignorance constantly. Anyone who would come back here after what you did to John's wife is truly ignorant. I never did anything to John's wife. Nor did I make the above-referenced comment about Israel. I guess one of you assholes is ID copying me too. That's all you kiddies seem capable of doing, copying the IDs of other posters. You are using the ID of another poster. |

No I don't care how many the Taliban kill. We should get the hell out of there and let them all kill each other if they want. They won't be holding up Hellfire missile parts and blaming us. that's the joe biden approach. i think it has merit. |

Pakistan has blockaded out supplies over this exact thing. They are also not doing anything to protect the trucks stalled behind the blockade and they are being blown up as fast as the Taliban can get to them. You seem mightily concerned about AQ, but not so much with reducing the violent attacks in Afg. and around the world. Pakistan closed the road back in 2008 for a few days also. Get over it. |

Same with burning bridges when you move on to different work by choice. I've returned to work for 3 different employers - because I knew not to flap my jaws for no real purpose when I left them behind. Still think his bosses fired him more because he was a loose cannon. They weren't insulted or hurt by his comments, they've heard it all before. It was just a last straw symptom of Sanchez being an asshole. It was a short number of generations past when Jews were regularly set apart by this very society, just like blacks, asians, etc. There's a lot of people still alive who remember. And their children are still alive who know what was done to their relatives during WWII. A few have done well for themselves but guys like Sanchez are too stupid to understand that they're the exception and not part of a grand scheme of Jews taking over the world. He played right into well-hewn stereotypes and ****ed into the wind. Actually, in the context of the conversation he wasn't saying anything offensive. He was responding to the comment that Jon Stewart was an "oppressed minority," which is patent nonsense. If he had just said "That's nonsense," he would still be working for CNN. But as you say, some truths are best left unsaid because they have been soiled by nefarious purpose. And he probably started it all by claiming he was himself an "oppressed minority" because he's "Latino." He's too stupid to realize that his ethnic background and fluency in Spanish is why he's been making big bucks instead of loading trucks. I don't know all the details, but Sanchez always struck me as having a chip on his shoulder. All this BS can be avoided by not engaging in ethnic/religious identification in the first place, and viewing people as individuals. Or at least by remembering mama's rule "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything." It serves him right that he got **** in his face and lost his job. His "apology" was pathetic and the only crew who'd likely hire him now is the same group that'd love having Lou Dobbs. Read the wiki on Dobbs. Except for a couple lapses in his judgment you probably are aligned with his views. Of course his entertaining the birthers irrevocably destroyed his reputation. Some mistakes don't hurt bad, others kill you. Dobbs made the latter mistake with the birther BS. Fatal. Maybe he can join those idiots on the couch at Fox & Friends. Hardly. Maybe Telemundo. Jim - Clarity of thought only comes with continued thinking. Similar to getting to Carnegie Hall. |

Anybody capable of obscene phone calls is also capable of spoofing, and vice versa, so he might be skulking around here with Loogy. Doesn't matter. It will be overcome. I have a dream. I have a dream that rec.boat posters will one day live in a newsgroup where they will not be judged by the id they use but by the content of their posts. You might say about us all "If you prick us, do we not bleed? if you tickle us, do we not laugh?" But I'm not sure of that. Now it seems flajim wants his old id back. Maybe he's tired of spoofing. Good for him. I was probably rude to pick it up when he abandoned it. But I don't feel like changing the id just yet. Hey, nobody's perfect. Maybe I will if flajim keeps on using the id. Rolph Wolfheart might work. Even Wolf Rolphingheart. Or Urquhart Finstermiesterbothingham III. Pepe LePew? Kind of like those. Anything but Harry Krause or Loogypicker really.

This is a lot worse. Don't know... but there's certainly looting and selling the stuff in markets. Rampant capitalism.. we must wipe it out. Even the Taliban aren't doing that!

He wasn't in Hamburg where the plot was planned, he wasn't in Spain where the hijackers were trained and the Taliban did not have any involvement at all except letting him live there. They certainly did not know anything about airplanes crashing into buildings. Their fight is with the people who have invaded their country, no more no less. They were there before we arrived and they will be there when we leave. So, what you're saying is that if there's a known murderer living in your house, you're not really responsible for turning him in, because you weren't there when he murdered someone... |

I guess one of you assholes is ID copying me too. That's all you kiddies seem capable of doing, copying the IDs of other posters. A careful look at the headers supports your case. Different versions of Thunderbird. Forget about that. He's flajim, who first started the spoofing by becoming Harry, and abandoning his flajim id. When I came across this newsgroup and decided to post here I took his old id to post anonymously. Seemed fitting since my name is Jaime and I'm currently in Florida. Never called myself flajim though. The Jim that harassed John's wife was an insurance salesman from Ohio. Anybody capable of obscene phone calls is also capable of spoofing, and vice versa, so he might be skulking around here with Loogy. Doesn't matter. It will be overcome. I have a dream. I have a dream that rec.boat posters will one day live in a newsgroup where they will not be judged by the id they use but by the content of their posts. You might say about us all "If you prick us, do we not bleed? if you tickle us, do we not laugh?" But I'm not sure of that. Now it seems flajim wants his old id back. Maybe he's tired of spoofing. Good for him. I was probably rude to pick it up when he abandoned it. But I don't feel like changing the id just yet. Hey, nobody's perfect. Maybe I will if flajim keeps on using the id. Rolph Wolfheart might work. Even Wolf Rolphingheart. Or Urquhart Finstermiesterbothingham III. Pepe LePew? Kind of like those. Anything but Harry Krause or Loogypicker really. In the meantime you can easily enough discern the difference between us. I don't call others here names - directly anyway. Don't cuss too ****ing much either, that's for damn sure. Jim - What tangled webs we weave. I'm the real Harry Krause, and I never ever post anything on topic here. All of my posts are just insults and name calling. Same with my little buddy Don, and now Plume is getting with the program. |

Afghanistan never attacked us. That is as valid as the WMD argument ... from the same guy, your hero GW Bush. The Taliban were in control of the country. They supported and protected bin laden. We asked them to hand him over. They refused. He had killed 1000s of our people. And, your response is... do nothing. At least Bush initially went after bin laden. ... but Bin Laden is not there now. What part of that is so hard for you to understand. Have we demanded Pakistan turn over Bin Laden? Have we occupied Islamabad to force them to? Why not if your logic is solid? So, if we leave and he comes back, which would be fairly likely, then what? Are we pressuring Pakistan to do more in the wild, border areas? |

Karzai wants to throw out all private security and is talking about throwing out all contractors. Obama may have a convenient out. Where is that "Mission Accomplished" banner? Bush's biggest mistake was not believing the one behind him on the Carrier We could have brought home all the people from both wars that day and the end result would be the same. According to you, but not most other people just yet. |

You just finished a rant about how many Afghans the Taliban kill. Racist Hmm... well, perhaps if we hadn't invaded Iraq (for no reason), we'd be able to do something in say Rwanda? Gee.. you think? No we were not going to do anything about Rwanda. Not now. I agree. |

Gosh, it's a good thing Idi Amin didn't have oil under his country. You notice that since Clinton got his nose bloodied in Africa we are not really doing much war making there. Actually, we have lots of people on the ground there... special ops I think they're called. But, feel free to blame Clinton. I have no problems with a few special ops people being anywhere but it should be a black op without any direct link to the US. We used to be real good at that sort of thing. That is pour best chance of getting Bin Laden. A guy with a sniper rifle or a laser designator could get him but an army never will. ?? What's wrong with ties to the US? You're in favor of the policy of targeted murder, right? |
