Bush’s problem is that he half-asses everything. I wasn’t for invading Iraq, but now that we’re there we either have to be a bad muthafucka or we’re just going to put up with shit like this ad infinitum.
very well put. I could have went 50/50 on the invasion. But thats a moot point. We’re there, and we have to let them know that we’re not gonna put up with this shit.

The sad part is, the 200,000 is how many troops we try to maintain there, that doesn’t include the number of soldiers that have died thus far. If only it was 200,000 troops total…
Thank you and I miss you Nick Tomko, lost, but not forgotten.

i dont think a lack of troops is the problem. Its gonna end up the same as Israel. The Israeli’s could wipe them off the face of the map in an afternoon, but they cant because it would piss off the international community. So they play this kiddy game where it just goes back and forth. The palestinians blow up a bus, the Israeli’s hit back with a small helicopter attack. Back and forth, back and forth, and the body count just keeps getting higher and higher, unless of course, the US makes a stand and takes an EXTREMELY FIRM stance and makes it so that the repurcussions for such an attack are too much for the agressors to bear. These people didnt pull shit like this when Saddamm was in power, because they knew if they did, they were fucked. This is the only thing they know. They see us as weak, and the people over there that are planning this shit know how incidents like this can sway public opinion. They know the public cant stomach seeing americans drug through the streets. They know that the US cant use their full force because of the international criticism it would draw. I dont know how many times they compared this on the news to the shit that happened back in Somaila, and how it caused the removal of US troops from the area. These people aren’t dumb.
Originally posted by Darkstar ON a serious note, policy really failed us. There is NO WAY that should have went on. The police and soldiers should have descended on that crown in a heartbeat. Now, if they crowd would have got all uppity and tried to resist, then i see no problem with opening fire on them with M60’s. We allowed lawlessness, we let them have control. That should have NEVER happened. Now that the situation is all fucked up though, Fallujah needs to be made an example of. Declare martial law and start cracking skulls. GIve the women and children a 24 hour notice to get the fuck out, and let everyone know that anyone that stays behind is gonna be considered opposition force and will be shot on site. This is what gets our soldiers killed. Bush’s weak ass policy. He is so worried about being PC and everything since the election is right around the corner, he is afraid to do anything drastic in fear of pissing people off. He is putting politics before the lives of our troops.Just another reason why i fucking hate the guy.
my main problem is the U.S. always trying to keep the colateral damage to a minimum…Its war…those things happen.
Fuck the who thing about you can’t shoot until you are fire upon…if i was there and you even look at me funny your a dead man. I look at it like this its their life or mine…and if i have any control i’m gonna make sure i’m left standing.
In that type of enviroment everyone is suspicious and trying to me politically correct or whatever you want to call it gets people killed.

The only reason I dont interject either a “Seaman” joke, or call attention to the urban myth that all sailors engage in buttsex0rs while out at sea, is because i think it would be in poor taste to do so.

:embarass:
was thinkg the same thing when i read that but passed on it also
ever read about the 6 days war… i say let israel do it again. they were surrounded and outnumbered and had no international support and they fucked up 5 countries in a week. i say let them do it again, after all the shit they’ve taken (suicide bombers and generally anti-semitism) i’d love to watch someone regulate. i mean, an entire religion declared war on the US, white, jews, and christians, not a country… RELIGION which encompasses dozens of middle eastern countires. so to think that these brain washed simpletons are gonna listen to any body other than a reincarnation of muhammed is nuts. i say write them off as fuck ups, clean up the shit however you need to, do damage control later. i really believe bush could have done this right if it wasn’t an election year :wtcslap:
All we really need to Do is find the A-Team, give them a 78 nova, some torches, a few AK’s and let them take care of business. Really thou, We need to tell the rest of the world to fuck off and put it down on these fanatical motherfuckers. Its like that really big kid in grade school that was quiet, everyone knew he could kick some ass but that he wouldn’t so them kept pushing him and pushing him until one day he beat the piss outta someone. You ever see the pumpkin chuckin contest, you know those giant sling shots and air cannons, thats what we should do with these people’s heads. They wanna mutilate our people we can mutilate and humiliate. If they ever find Bin laden they should cut off his head and have it as the guest host of saturday night live.
Originally posted by Darkstar thats the difference between a good president and a crappy president.
:rolleyes:or we could let these nuts drive a motorboat into a naval battleship and blow the sides off, or maybe send troops w/o unilateral support into say africa or eastern europe, you see you can fuck up during non election years and no one mentions it (clinton) … no president EVER FROM ANY COUNTRY FOR THE REST OF TIME will make sweeping moves during an election year. the days of patriots are over, now we have politicians their job is more important to them than the ‘right thing to do’. and that holds true regardless of party lines
