What is the symbol on tanks?
I've seen tanks with a symbol resembling a "private" rank. An old tank had a diamond shape symbol.

in any wars, you still have US politicians involved, do you think the world would be better without the USA.?

Years ago, when USA was only a tribe with native Americans(before 1700), there were not so many wars, but since America has been invaded by foreigners, the world is only chaos.
specially since the US want recognized only Israel as a country.

Has honesty become something our grandfather believed in?
Today I find myself surrounded by people who are obviously lying to me, and it's not just preachers, politicians, and used car salesmen.
It's ordinary people who testify on T.V. that if I use this product, I will loose 60lbs. in 60 days,or I will become a millionaire by next month.
Right now (on public T.V.) I'm watching a guy ,with a tripple chin, telling me how to get my body in shape.
Even the once respected medical Doctor might be advising me to have an unnecessary medical operation so that he can buy his wife that new Mercedes.
My mechanic even speaks a language he hopes I can't understand, so he can do an expensive repair.
Where in hell can we feel secure in this modern world?

Why is it most US military personell that have served in Iraq believe we need to be there? Why is it the military is not having a hard time getting Iraq war vets to voluntarily reenlist when there contracts end? Why do a vast majority of military personell support President Bush, unlike when Clinton was in office.

Is the military more informed in what is really happening over there or would you have the courage to say the military is full of idiots that should be glad they have an income of any sort?

That is how it appears when people that have never been there and are not going to be there discuss wether I should have been there.

I would tell you my views on quantum physics but since I don't know enough about it I will keep my mouth closed and not look like an idiot by pretending like I do.

Why are we in Iraq?


Why does our government allow tobacco corporations to continue to sell poisonous cigarettes?

Why does our government allow pharmaceutical companies to sell drugs with side-effects worse than the disease they're trying to cure?

Why does our government put fluoride in our water, that systemically poisons us, while trying to treat a topical oral problem?


Why does our government allow corporations to poison our food with additives, preservatives, with toxic amounts of fat and sugars?

Still think our government cares about people's health and welfare as long as it doesn't affect the bottomline?

Iraq is part of the war on terror, correct?

Therefore it follows that Iraq must have had terrorist organizations and terrorists for us to invade.

Can anyone name an incident where a terrorist from Iraq or a terrorist group based in Iraq attacked America or any American allies before we invaded Iraq?

Simple question.

Empires rose, empires fell; the Summerian, the ancient Egyptian, the Greek, the Roman, the Chinese, the hinu, the early Muslim, the Othomanian, not to mention some believe in Limura and Atlantis empires. They all were powerful, advanced and very sophisticated in their own ways, but still they all decayed and collapsed due to corruption; corruption we do practise now, ignoring history. What's wrong with the human race?!

So many times I see people say that Muslims in the west need to come out and condemn terror. I have seen many Muslims do this time and time again, but I still see people complaining that the condemnation isn't there. I don't see any Muslims in the US coming out and backing Al Qaeda unless they are extremists that the rest of the Muslim community wants nothing to do with. What more do Muslims have to do to show you that they want to be part of the solution?

What are the best states for Republicans, conservatives, and religious people? The South is an easy answer...what else is there?

My thoughts: Colorado, Utah, Ohio, and Wyoming. What do you think about those?

Seems more like the "political correctness" or "anti-original thinking" squad than the "abuse" squad. Or do they call it the "abuse" squad because they always abuse users? (And themselves??)
