I said no but only because like Trav said one thing they do have in common is that be people get killed and wounded.

We're not as "Mired Down" as the press would have you believe. The Media are lying to the American Public. They are "Lies of Omission" but lies nontheless. They accentuate every negative thing they cand find and NEVER report any of our sucesses. Don't any of you find that a little strange? Why are they doing this? Do they have an "Agenda" in keeping us in the dark about good things that are happening in/with regards to Iraq? Do you suppose it's because they are pushing to get Kerry elected and need to make Bush look bad at every turn? The press is trying to control the outcome of this War just as they did during Vietnam. I blame the Media more than I blame the Politicians from that time frame.

It is not looking too damned good. If the draft is enacted it will 100%....a disaster.

If, and only if, it does become a second Vietnam, it will be the fault of the American people. Too damn many bleeding hearts in this country.

Give the bastards 24 hours to surrender Fallaja, it they do not, level the entire town. Men, women, dogs, cats, everything that is breathing dies. Go from there to the next town, give them 24 hours, same-same!

You see, most of what we are fighting in Iraq today, is not Iraqis. Sure there are a few who join the cause but the vast majority of insurgents are from Syria and Iran.

In another post it was recomended to launch cruise missles at those countries, not sure that is the right answer. Search them out and kill everyone of them that enters Iraq.

Thank-you Trav
My sentiments exactly! It's the" feel good flocks" that we can't have anyone hurt, do your job and protect us , but do not kill anyone. This war is nothing like Viet Nam. Our Country was attacked! It's on the news now Fallaja is now lit up , hopefully from our bombs!

Dakota...yes, they have C-130 gunships orbiting over the town and dropping death and destruction upon the heads of the cowering little bastards.

Kill one of mine and I will return the favor 10 fold, tomorrow same-same.

The only thing those little parasitic sand fleas know, so I say give it to them, everyone one them!
