Military - October 2006

[Selected]: All categories Politics & Government Military

Last week some dude sent me hate mail for saying that the United States is responsible for 48,000 deaths in Iraq. Well, that may have been a bit conservative. How about 655,000. Yes, 655,000. Sure the team of American and Iraqi epidemiologists used a method of sampling the population that can be somewhat inaccurate. But, really, how much could they possibly be off? 300,000? Not that people care, it's only like, the number of people in Milwaukee, no biggie. I believe that Saddam Hussian was responsible for something like 800,000 deaths so, we've got that to shoot for.

It just goes to show how easily things can be hidden from the public. 600,000 unaccounted deaths. But it would take a massive conspiracy too large for even the most powerful government in the world to pull off to load some bulidings with explosives and then get some crazy dudes to fly airplanes into them. 600,000 deaths we can hide, but not that.

What pisses me off most is that people are oblivious to it.

I will try this again. The last time I asked this question it appeared that some answers were given thinking that I am against something. I am an NCO trying to take care of my soldiers. On a resent mission of a non-combat nature, where no lives were in danger, I felt those higher did not take the soldiers care into their planning process. We are now into three battles within the military, Iraq, Afganistan, and the battle of retention/referral. If we as NCO's don't fight for our soldiers, they will not stay in or recommend others to join. I felt my soldiers were being overworked on a mission of policital inportance. My question is again, what is the regulation regarding hours worked to time required for rest, both mental and physical. The Army has rules to follow like any other organization, just finding them are hard. Example, 24 hours on 24 hours off in a non-combat mission. How many days straight can they wor before we have to get them some mental as well as physical rest.

Remember, no nukes or chem bio.
There HAS to be a winner, no sitting on the fence.
No allies either, one on one. Like a backyard fight but on a slightly bigger scale!

I'm thinking that number can't be true because that number is way to high for me to still feel good about myself.

I have so many questions, but every time I ask a recruiter, I always get a different answer. My husband enlisted in the military. I want to know what will happen when he gets out of basic training. Like, when will we move? When does he know where we are going to live? What will I have to do when my husband leaves for Basic training. Any other advice to give me.... I'm just so lost..
I just wanna know when I get to move, where I will be, what I have to do to get there and who's moving our stuff.

Looks to me that Bush is teetering on an acceptance of the fact that the US military is stretched far too thin as it is. Not only that I really believe that he is afraid of further military action albeit his further rhetoric that the US "reserves all options to defend our friends in the region." (China has a HUGE military, much larger than the US. Why would they need the US?)

Pres. Bush called Wednesday for stiff sanctions on North Korea for its reported nuclear test. In a Rose Garden news conference, Bush said the United States "reserves all options to defend our friends in the region, and .
"remains committed to diplomacy. He also said that the "United States has "no intention of attacking" the reclusive regime."It didn't work in the past. ... I learned a lesson from that. You have a better diplomatic hand with others sending the message," Bush said.
He supports a resumption of six-way talks among North Korea, South Korea, China, Russia, Japan and the United States.
