Please don't answer questions about the military if you've never served. You don't have a clue about what you're talking about. "A friend of my sister's ex boyfriend's brother had this happen to him" doesn't cut it.

I just saw a guardian article that the Germans (it wold have to be) are developing scanners that can predict a persons intentions with a 70% success rate. Why can't the government just bugger off and leave us alone to get on with our lives. We managed before without all this crap, surely we can carry on without this stupid technology?

socialism

1.Any of various theories or systems of social organization in which the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a centralized government that often plans and controls the economy.

2.The stage in Marxist-Leninist theory intermediate between capitalism and communism, in which collective ownership of the economy under the dictatorship of the proletariat has not yet been successfully achieved.

This is the basic definitions of socialism.Now, below I will give the basic definitions of a liberal.Of course not all liberals will fit into the entire definition.Just like not all conservatives would fit into the definition of that.But, no where does the definition suggest that goods should be owned or produced by the government or that the government should plan and control the economy or have a dictator.Personally, I think being a liberal is a very good thing.Just look at the first three definitions.

The sons of liberty were important in leading the colonies to fight for independance from England. In the last 100 years Washington DC has become very corrupt, and this country is headed down a dark path. Are you one of those who believe in Thomas Jeffersons words "god forbid this country ever go 20 years without a rebellion" Well the rebellion is long overdue, and action is needed, even armed insurrection, if need be, to help straighten this country out, and restore the freedoms under the Constitution. If you are this type of person then please answer the question!

We are formally divorced since April,2006.
The written agreement which has value of Court's decision , she does not respect.
Problem is that she does not like to enable contact between me and our children. Sometimes objective reasons are stronger, but
personally I want to spend time and to build relationship with kids.
Now I was told that she needs my permission how she could take them to Canada - I do not want to speculate about details- for how long...and we are living on the ex Yugoslavia area
Why exists such condition?
Should I take a clear position for negotiations?
kids are about 4 and 5 years old

This is just as bad as the people that sue mcdonalds because they're fat or 7 eleven because they spill their coffee. Im fat but i'm nor suing mcdonalds for that.

Everyone Keeps telling us how to get out after we have the baby but how does she get out before. She doesn't want to have to ship off after she has the baby and have her be a stranger to the baby when she gets back, and we have lots of family and friends we want to take part in the baby's life. i also have a great paying job waiting for me back home if we can get her out.... Is there still a "chapter 8"?

I've recently been reading a manuscript by a submarine electrician about being a navy nuke, and I was wondering if he ever finished the book, and, if so, if he published it and where I can get the finished memoir. I ask because I was considering writing a book about my own experience until I found someone who did it first.

Can you evaluate the Soviet's stratege, and tacticts of fighting guerillas?

Were the Soviets bad at chasing after the Afghans?

I have read some articles that the Soviets were not good at this kind of guerilla fighting, as they landed the helicopters in the open field (which drew rocket attacks from the Afghans) and their calvary units being lured into closed terrain, being mass-killed.

But I want to know more. Were the Soviet tactics still based on the world war 2 experiences?

Overall, were the Soviets good fighters and inflicted many casualties to the Afghans?

Or were they stupid and just got killed?

I want to know as much information as possible.

I want to know their mistakes, favorite tactics, etc.

thanks.
