Military - February 2007

As an old salt, I am interested in the mothball fleet. Navy websites list the location of many mothballed ships as the James River, but exactly where on the James are they located? Is there a visual access point or is it close to a road where you can see some of the ships? Any info would be appreciated.

"In the next century, the community of nations may see more and more the very kind of threat Iraq poses now -- a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction ready to use them or provide them to terrorists, drug traffickers or organized criminals who travel the world among us unnoticed.

If we fail to respond today, Saddam and all those who would follow in his footsteps will be emboldened tomorrow by the knowledge that they can act with impunity, even in the face of a clear message from the United Nations Security Council and clear evidence of a weapons of mass destruction program."

"I come to this debate, Mr. Speaker, as one at the end of 10 years in office on the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, where stopping the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction was one of my top priorities. I applaud the President on focusing on this issue and on taking the lead to disarm Saddam Hussein. ... Others have talked about this threat that is posed by Saddam Hussein. Yes, he has chemical weapons, he has biological weapons, he is trying to get nuclear weapons."

I really dig this airplane. I don't want to debate whether its safe, etc. I was just wondering when the marines plan to start using them, particularly in Iraq, etc. I am curious to see how they perfom in a combat situation, in the sand, etc.

I mean , other than the regular battle on ground. They say they are killing 'insurgents' in the scores ( at least ) daily but it seems nowadays helicopters are raining down on iraq . 4 out of some 58 in the past 2 weeks alone. How come there is no end to the supply of the so called ' Insurgents ' ??

WASHINGTON - The U.S. acknowledged Friday that Iraq is spiraling downward, with sectarian animosity growing and new Iraqi troops being added too slowly in a precarious mix that could draw the country's neighbors into the violence when the American troops leave.

The sobering assessment from the National Intelligence Council was seen by congressional Democrats — and some Republicans — as new evidence that President Bush's Iraq policy is failing in a big way.

"I do not see anything so far in the report that suggests the president's new plan is a winning strategy that protects America's national interest," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid , D-Nevada.

I saw a clip of the air force helping some U.S. marines by dropping a 2000 pound bomb on some insurgents who had the marines held up in a hotel... It was pretty freaking cool.

I've heard that the Korean War was never declared an "official" war by government terms, is this the same situation for the War in Iraq/Terrorism?

The US navy could defend Taiwan but China's military has been more modernizing in recent years. In a decade, China will have a nuclear aircraft carrier and a fleet of Su-27s and J-10 fighters. US f-22 raptors will not be in mass production. But the US will need to attack the factories in China to gain an edge plus China has the capability of taking down US satellites needed for reconnaisance. Japan would have a difficulty of supporting US in this war. Also, Taiwan has delayed buying US weaponry. Currently, China is getting Rolls Royce engines from Great Britain (England) even though there is a EU embargo in place. Well, Israel is selling missile technology to China developed from US investment. Who will win in a real war? China vs USA

Because when he starts to lose he resorts to making trades. I am affraid making trades in war by kicking out your commanders won't help the affair like it does to trade for a good pitcher or a homerun hitter in baseball like he did when running the texas rangers.
The biggest problem with Bush.... His ego.

How is it that America is getting ready to pump another 99 BILLION dollars into Iraq and we are getting our butts kicked by $5.00 homemade bombs?

America has become weak and effeminate. We now cower in fear from cartoon characters.

How can this nation of cowards ever hope to win another war?

Bush the benefit. Even though they dont really agree with the cause. I dont think for a sec that he forgot his own people, after all he has a wife, daughters and possibly grandchildren to think about too. He isnt gonna make this country ruins for them or us.
