I know there has got to be all kinds of organizations that work with soldiers stationed far away from home during the holidays. I'd like to know what I can do. I would be honored to be a "Secret Santa" for anyone serving in Iraq or Afghanistan to a little one (or two) here in the Buffalo, New York area.

Perhaps we can put something together and make this a special holiday season for many people.

Anyone interested let me know. Anyone willing to be a Secret Santa in your area pay attention too.

The death toll for both the Iraqis and the US troops continuing to rise what is happenning out there? Theses are real people with real loving caring families behind them worrying about them, not just statistics or numbers! We don't seem to have any overall objective. Bush is confused himself saying that he's now "changing tactics". What were the tactics in the first place? What he tells us and what the facts tell us seem to be 2 different things. Surely we can't just continue like this, can we? Many of the troops are now themselevs asking to be bought home. If thats the case that just tells you how despearate the situation is getting!

Lately I have seen quite a few of our men and women in uniform who are stationed overseas answering questions here in these Forums. Call me a sensitive fool, but it is heartwarming knowing that we are not totally cutoff from all of you.

If you are serving in Iraq, Afghanistan or South Korea you know better than most what is really happening in those regions of the world.

I am interested in what you have to say. I would like to know what we back here at home may be able to do to help you get your message out.

I can't serve, I am physically incapable and relatively old. *wink*
I wish I could serve though. I believe in what you are doing for our country and it would be an honor to be next to you.

Anything we can do for you back here?

What qualifications do you need? I am asking on behalf of my niece who took and participated in several music courses, choirs, and bands throughout high school. She plays multiple instruments and is an accomplished singer and dancer. She is very good, but her grades weren't good enough to qualify for a scholarship...not bad...just not great. Her family does not have the money to send her to college to get her degree in music. I know the military will help her get the college credits AND she can use the discipline it will instill in her. Any thoughts? Any cautions on recruiter promises, etc.?

China supports North Korea when no other country will. Why? Because China knows that if Communism fell in North Korea there would be millions of Korean illegal immigrants entering China and they DON'T want that. But America is the bad guy not to take in 50 million illegal immigrants?

Ok, that was very broad, and I did that on purpose to get you attention. :)
I'm curious to know how it's possable to not support the war or our government, but to support the troops. As a veteran of the Iraq war and a newly re-enlisted soldier in the Army, I don't see the middle ground.

If this doesn't apply to you, you know who you are. So don't respond.

What do you think would happen if the war in Iraq was completely voluntary, when i say voluntary I mean they would go without pay, and they would be doing it purely for Iraqi freedom. What do you think most soldiers in iraq would do now if they were told they could go home if they wanted or they could stay if they wanted. Do you think most of our soldiers would want to fight for Iraqi freedom? Also Do you think that the majority of soldiers would want to fight if they didn't get paid or they didn't hope to have their college paid for. This question is just about the war in Iraq...Not about if they would want to stay here and be soldiers defending this country.

I am looking for color photos of Japan between 1945 and 1960 (during the Allied occupation and after). I already checked with the MacArthur Memorial and the Ohio State University Library. Is there any other institution, library, or individuals who might have color photos of Japan during these years? Thank you in advance for your help.

The other day in my history class the teacher asked, "who are the 2 most powerful military forces." Many students said China and the US or Visa Versa. When it came my turn to answer I said " all those who follow after Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Russia." The teacher then laughed and asked me why? And I said in modern day warfare all you need is the technology and people in the right places. Russia have the technology and know how along with a few hundred warheads to go with those who follow after Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in the right places. Besides we all know Russia is helping Mahmoud Ahmadinejad cause in destroying the western civilization. I notice there are at least 3 masque in every major city across the globe filled with fake muslims waiting for the green light, mini nukes are already here the EMP is a charged and ready, now all they need is probable cause. Look at it lke this they want to die and we want to live how do we compete with what seems like a lost cause? Then she kicked me out

The war in Iraq is a "pure failure" that has left Iraqis in a worse state than when they lived under Saddam Hussein, former United Nations chief weapons inspector Hans Blix said in comments published Wednesday.

"Iraq is a pure failure," Blix was quoted as saying in the Danish newspaper Politiken.

"If the Americans pull out, there is a risk that they will leave a country in civil war. At the same time it doesn't seem that the United States can help to stabilize the situation by staying there."

Blix, in comments that were seen as unusually critical for the diplomat, said the U.S. is facing a situation where neither staying to fight nor pulling its troops out of Iraq are good decisions.

Blix said Iraq would have been better off if the war had not happened.

"Saddam would still have been sitting in office. OK, that is negative and it would not have been joyful for the Iraqi people. But what we have gotten is undoubtedly worse," he was quoted as saying

What are you thinking about right now?
I'm thinking I need to say "Thank you" because I just peeked at my babies, and they are snug and sound asleep in their little beds. I love you, and I appreciate you ALL! My flag is weathered, but still flying on my front porch.
Penny for you thoughts. ;^)
