Iraq War

[andrewrice07]

yes iseral is a very good fighting force...its the way that you worded what you said that makes you sound stupid...and get the idea of child solider out of every ones head, shampoo happens and children pick up guns....get over it

Sorry for pulling a JD and writing an excessively long post...

But thats a good thing.

You need to add about the people part where people say they "hate bush" or "bush is a dumb ass" or anything along those lines, they have no idea why yes, or they have heard some one else say why and gave you a half-ass attempt at a response, like my U.S. Government professor, save yourself go to a private college that cost an ass load. Or buy books off amazon, unless you can get "The Closing of the American Mind" from the Nicholas Public Library (without having to use them as a middle man) lol then you pull a "good will hunting" and come a job interview or test, you bedazzle them in brilliance, unless you plan to teach, or you want to join the forces.

And a great example of the medias ability to tell lies that the lefts government want you to hear is Bosnia! Marc Rich! To very miss guided or unguided occurrences in all of medias miss handling of things. And then there is the the current War, and the Presidents, always used, out of contest, "major fight in Iraq is over" comment, that was directed towards combat at organized military force, government funded and run. Not to say that a terrorist organization can't be funded and run by a government, but that they aren't waring their countries uniform(F.Y.I. we did the same thing in Bosnia, but we pulled one out of Hitlers play book, and used another countries uniform to stage our attack (two guess as what we painted on they sides of our plans...?))

It's really a joke, the uncomfortable part about it all is, say we go back to the way thing in the 1950's or when ever you thing America should go back to, our peers and we have lost is WHY things where the way they were. For example, why would I want my parents to pick my wife(if you want to go back that far)?

And if we knew why we would just be kidding ourselves today.

The thing about weapons in Syria is that if they have moved them already but we don't know it and go in, then everyone will think Bush is just a facsit warmonger.

We should send troops to Syria completely void of media attention or consultation of the UN. If people are unaware of the status of a mission to Syria then obviously they won't be against it. We could send small regiments just as Nixon did with Cambodia during Vietnam. I believe that we would have a successfull campaign without media swaying the populace.

Where will we get the soldiers for that?

[FThompson08]

As you said in an earlier post, " We ahve bases in 172 countries", we can divert troops from places like Korea and Germany. But I'm not particularly fond of War with Syria, I mean will stomp a mudhole in their ass, but we need time to regroup.

[nighthawk101]

We already have been diverting soldiers. We dont have enough men to clean up the mess in Iraq, let alone start a whole new offensive.

[mr.turtle]

how about we all just hold hands, cry, and watch some sad movie cuz i dont give a shampoo any more....its blah blah blah......lets not fight...well damn it if we didnt get our start from war...so why dont we just stick to what works

[FThompson08]

What are you talking about nighthawk, we have about 50,000 troops in Korea and Germany alone. That is not counting the other bases

[mr.turtle]

just a thought but how many do we have deployed in iraq anyway?

[nighthawk101]

What are you talking about nighthawk, we have about 50,000 troops in Korea and Germany alone. That is not counting the other bases

So our military is not grossly stretched?

[nighthawk101]

just a thought but how many do we have deployed in iraq anyway?

At or about 150,000.... I dont know the exact current number

some where in that neighborhood yes

[mr.turtle]

so how many soldiers do we have here at home?

[FThompson08]

We could easily have 300,000 troops in Iraq if we wanted. When you have enemies like China, Russia, and Iran we can't afford to look weak

[LORD MANN]

enemies like China, Russia

WTF there not are enemies

[FThompson08]

Are u kidding? China puts us at the top of their enemies list. The to general in China has been quoted as saying they would nuke us if we stood up for Taiwan. They also have a military alliance with Russia who under Vladimir Putin has stated that we are the cause of all the world's problems. No American assets in our enemies hands: just another reason to elect Fred Thompson for President.
