Military - December 2006

AP reported that truckloads of cash from SA are being sent over to the insurgency.
If the US were to follow Bush's vision that "we will go after those that commit terror, and those that harbor it ", then does that mean we really have more enemies then we originally thought at this point?
Why would SA bother, what is their interest to help one side, and NOT help everybody...being they are supposedly so noble?
Should we sock them in the eye, or just turn our cheeks to this?
If we turn our cheeks...this GREATLY reduces Bush's already bad image. And our's.

And will it work out the whole middle east will war over oil-rich Iraq soon?

I believe Tony Blair and his mate George W Bush to be committed Christains. On that understanding, WHY, WHY, WHY, WHY would either of them even think, let alone consider, with-drawing ANY of our Armed Service personnel from Iraq or Afghanistan BEFORE they have completed thier mission? WHY? Why send our troops, and greatest asset to Iraq and Afghanistan with a specific aim and job to do, then pull the plug on them before they can complete the job? HAVE NO LESSONS BEEN LEARNT FROM THE FIRST GULF WAR in 1991 when the plug was pulled JUST before the job had been completed? WHY do politicians have to interfere just because they get some bad media publicity? Surely the mark of a good leader is - make THE decision then delegate to the person who knows how to get the job done, and stay out of the way until the expert returns with the words "job completed"...? Pulling troops out a SECOND time makes a mockery of those lost young lives given freely - for OUR peace!!

For shame on you both !

He seems adverse to listening to what the majority have to say on Iraq, does anybody really believe he will Uturn on Iraq or stick to his guns, and bombs, and soldiers etc... I think he wants it his way or no way.

When I lived in Asia back in the 70's and 80's, I had a lot of time spent with Japanese friends. WWII being one of my favorite subjects, I tried to converse with people my own age about it. They seemed to know almost nothing at all. Their schoolbooks seemed to only have a half page that mentioned Pearl Harbor and the Japanese victory then fast forwarded to Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the Japanese "retirement" from the war. No mention of the atrocities, the alliance with Hitler the madman or the fact that they had really been fighting the war since 1894, stirring up trouble in China. When they defeated the Russians in 1905, attacking before they declaired war (Hmmm), they annexed Korea shortly thereafter. They just kept gnawing away at China & building up island bastions until we began to notice in 33. They drummed up reasons for an out-and-out war by 37 and were absolutely merciless about it until we finally stopped them cold in 1945. Yet a modern Japanese seems to know nothing. Why?

By official statistics, in the 1948 war (for independence) 6500 were killed. There were a number of later wars and I would like to know the official amount of army victims in them,. on the Israeli side.

I am confused as to the Air Force potential. I want to be an engineer and apparently in the Air Force you need to be an officer. In the navy you just become an engineer according to your ASVAB. Is this true that you can't be an Engineer in the Air Force without a 4-year?

Would the world be better or worse and for whom, orwould it just different? After all Europe has been conquered and reconquered throughout its existence, many times by ruthless dictators. Would Germany be a superpower? Would the world have found out about the holocaust and would Israel exist?

If china got fed up with wal-mart and the u.s. could they successfully launch a full scale invasion of the west coast and set up shop in the us? F-22 Amraams can only kill 6 migs per flight, so with shear numbers and dense deployment patterns, could they do it?Would punks and geeks of CA be enough to resist them or have the free people gone soft?

Essentially, a few lines of text on some documents in some dusty drawer somewhere say it's okay and it's therefore morally okay? Hardly.

We're on the verge of conflict with Russia. I think it' a bout time, don't you? Let's invade them and establish them as one last jewel in the British Empire! Then we can covertly retake America, and this time we'll enforce the tea taxes with a firm hand! Do you second my proposal?
