There will always be a top five until there are no more leaders left to fill the ranks. You understand that....eh? Oh, what a spin!! So, I take it, then, that when you play chess, and someone takes your Queen, a Rook or a Knight becomes the Queen?? |

Kevin,
If the Queen of England dies, or the President of the US etc. dies, do you think someone else becomes the new Queen/King of England, or the President of the US etc? wrote in message oups.com... *JimH* wrote: Harry, Harry, Harry.

Harrry, you should have added the fact that you can do nothing but whine about it, 'cause you, like the rest of the liberals, have no ideas! John, I'm a liberal, and I have a plan. I explained it to you and NOYB over a year ago. It's absolutely perfect. It's derived from commonly accepted methods of discliplining children. Have you forgotten already? Yup. It must not have overly impressed me, or I didn't see it. Tell me again, please. But please don't adopt Harry's cut and run attitude, 'cause that won't fly. -- John 1) Indicate to Muslim-dominant countries that we have a lottery tumbler filled with balls containing the names of every town in their countries with a population greater than some number. Let's use 5,000 as a minimum population. Show a demo of the tumbler on television, being spun by a scantily clad woman. 2) Any time American property or life is attacked, anywhere, we will quickly determine if the attack appears to have been conducted by Islamic wackos. We don't need to know specifically who. One bunch or another usually claims responsibility. That's how radicals have always been, regardless of whether they're Irish, Colombian, skinheads, Italian, SDS, whatever. It's an ego thing. 3) Indicate to the list of governments that if an attack on us takes place anywhere, we will spin the lottery tumbler, pick a town, and level it completely. Might take a few days, since there's a limit as to how much weaponry a jet can carry, but we'll be sure to do a good job. It's important that the attack begin with seconds of the named ball falling from the lottery tumbler. No choking one's chicken for 8 months, as your president did with Iraq. 4) Get our troops out of whatever country these people are whining about at the moment. Like Iraq. Indicate to the list of potential offenders that it is now the job of their governments and clergy to keep their problems within their own borders, where they belong. In other words, "We're leaving, as you asked. Now you have nothing to cry and complain about. If you need to continue complaining, do it in your own rooms, with the doors closed and don't come out until you're ready to behave properly. If you find mullahs who still want to preach hatred and destruction, we will gladly help you 'calm' them down, via lobotomy, prison (here), or whatever is necessary. Drop them off at the nearest embassy and we'll handle it from there. We'll be doing the same with Pat Robertson, Dick Cheney, and some of our other mullahs". Of course, the world will think this is madness, so we should demonstrate, just once, on an unpopulated target. Sounds like a plan. Of course, when the first bomb was dropped all the liberals in the world would be screaming about the number of innocent civilians killed, regardless of how many American lives were lost. -- John H I'm a liberal. I wouldn't argue with discipline which was fairly and accurately explained before the misbehavior occurred. It's common sense, like raising kids. So you would punish one kid for the acts of the other? -- John H That's exactly what your president is doing in Iraq. I'd just change the plan to give bad people an opportunity to clean up their acts. Not much of an opportunity, but still...... The President is punishing no one now. He punished Saddam for the things Saddam did. Don't get me wrong. I love your idea. It's like a 'one way' MAD policy! I think it would make no difference to terrorist leaders who have shown their disregard for any life, except their own. -- John H MERRY CHRISTMAS! Wishing you peace, fellowship, and good humor as we celebrate the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ on the Christmas Holy Day. |

But, it just might give a few parents a reason to pause and think before they let their kids pursue the "seven virgins in paradise" bull****. That kind of glory isn't so much different than what youngsters here think they'll achieve if they join a gang and as part of the initiation rites, go out and kill a cop. Parents *do* have some effect, sometimes. |

Harry,
Kevin was not questioning the theory of a war of attrition. He didn't understand the basic concept of succession of command. Let's be honest with each other, don't you find Kevin to be very humorous? It would be hard to find someone as funny as Kevin if we tried. "Harry Krause" wrote in message ... John H. wrote: On 5 Dec 2005 05:16:28 -0800, wrote: *JimH* wrote: Harry, Harry, Harry.

It's important that the attack begin with seconds of the named ball falling from the lottery tumbler. No choking one's chicken for 8 months, as your president did with Iraq. I proposed a similar scenario a couple of years ago. Link each US city up with an equal-sized city in a "Muslim-dominant" country. For example, if NY gets hit (population 8.1 million), buh-bye to 3/4 of Tehran (population 12 million). But I favored nukes over conventional weapons. They're cheaper and put US forces at less risk. Only stupid people would actually advocate the use of nuclear weapons. They're cheaper and put US forces at less risk. |
