Stu (OP) User ID: 838921 United States 06/27/2010 02:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | "Why of course the people don't want war. Why should some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally the common people don't want war neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country." _____________________________________ Even the structure of the atom has been found by the mind. Therefore the mind is subtler than the atom.

FatalWishes User ID: 626707 United States 06/27/2010 02:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I actually called a radio show here in the DFW area (1080 KRLD) and got laughed off the air by one single question. That question was "I don't know if you remember but Russia almost went bankrupt trying to win a war over there and they failed. What makes you think the USA can do any better?" They laughed and laughed and hung up on me and went to the next caller. While the world may forget my question I think it's a good one. History is doomed to repeat itself and we won't succeed where Russia failed.

Great quote and so utterly absolutely true. Had some friends over for dinner last night and the topic of the Gulf came up. One person pointed out that BP shouldn't and couldn't be brought down because the pensions of 60% of the British workforce are tied up in BP. It ain't good, folks, when you have to lick the hand of your murderers. I'm just surprised they've finally come out in the open....we are truly fucked. |

ookie User ID: 865973 United States 06/27/2010 02:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The only solution to the war is to just kill everyone over there and then let people from the US settle in a new frontier type thing and then build up infrastructure and trade. The people there aren't smart enough to do it themselves. They insist on being backwards and violent. So let's show them some backwards violence and just flatten every structure in the country and bomb any survivors into dust. Ban using depleted Uranium so the new settlers don't all die of radiation poisoning. Think long term. We did it here with the Indians. We killed them all. We'll have to do it there to win. Do we have the strength of will to accomplish our goal? Last Edited by ookie on 06/27/2010 02:45 PM |

I have friends that did close to 5 years in Iraq and 1 year in Afghanistan and the pentagon just wants to send them back in for more. I've been told some people have been over there for even longer. This war has destroyed families. I'm talking husbands going home to no wive waiting for them. Uncle Sam owes the American people a lot more than just a pat on the back.

We made a substantial start on it with W's "shock and awe" campaign, which involved blowing up lots of the caves that people used to live in there in that desert landscape. You can consider their lifestyle "backward" if you want. They may not think much of yours either. Hard to blame them for being violent against invaders though. |
michiganfreedom User ID: 935368 United States 06/27/2010 03:04 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's not a war that can be won. Quoting: Khan 883493Right we defeated Soviet & British , now we will defeat them as well. get a fucking history book, Afghans defeated the USSR and UK because of outside supply of weapons. The USSR fought against a US supplied Afghan force and the UK fought against a Ottoman supplied force, the USSR was in no position to make war aginst the US over it, and the UK wasalready fighting the Turks who were supplying the afghans, today its Iran supplying the Taliban, and the US CAN do something about it. Once the US/Israel attack comes against Iran, after you see abacklash at first, youll see the end of Hamas, Hezbollah,AL Queda and the Taliban, as no one will supply them. I welcome that date.
