Can physical abuse be due to PTSD (if the person was never that way before)?
If so, does it stop after the person with PTSD is treated?

Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama said yesterday he "would absolutely apologize" if he offended military families by saying American troops' lives have been "wasted" in the Iraq war.

But haven't they? With over 2500 lives lost and over 2500 Families in mourning;
Wouldn't those soldiers been better off protecting us from North Korea, Iran or Saudi Arabia than losing there lives in Iraq?

Why does the US ally itself with Britain when Britain was involved in collusion with Loyalist terrorists against innocent people in Ireland. I t has recently been proven by independent enquiries that Loyalist death squads wre in the pay of British intelligence throughout the troubles when they murdered countless innocent Catholics. America has a large Irish Catholic population who gave their support to the Irish Republican Volunteers who defended the Irish people against the British and their colleagues in the Loyalist terrorist groups like the UVF and UDA. The US government however supported the Brits throughout this despite the fact that America has also suffered from British imperialism in the past

Our politicians are caught lying all the time. They have lied to get us into every war and conflict. Americans are truly dumb. The European's news isn't as filtered as ours. They learn some of the truth. We never get the truth, so it's why we are so gullible. We are so stupid we not only think we have the right to barge into any country we want and do whatever we want. We are appauld if they even say anything negative about it. One soldier who came from Iraq with his foot shot off and his wife said, he was going back to show them what they had done to him. For one thing many people don't know that Israel is shooting our soldiers in Iraq. Israel is setting off bombs. Israel is the reason we are in Iraq and Israel is the reason we are going into Iran.

The Democratic led House will pass a non-binding resloution saying they have no faith whatsoever that the troops will be able to do their jobs and they should all leave.

Do you think they terrorists will just post this resolution on their websites, or will they also make posters out of it for moral support and justification for their fight against America?

If Democrats had any integrity and conviction, they would vote to cut funding and make President Bush return the troops home. But since they have no conviction, they will just pass a piece of paper demoralizing our troops and emboldening the terrorists.

Good job, Pelosi!

The Army has a program referred to WOFT (Warrant Officer Flight Training), where unlike any other Warrant Officer position; you dont have to belong to the Military before starting training and its often referred to "High School to FLight School". (It all has to do w/ helicopters, not fixed-wing)

Does any other branch, or the Army, have any other programs dealing w/ piloting? Or any other program where you go in the Military right after High School and it leaves you w/ a good job within the Military and skills you could use in the civillian world? (ex. like WOFT, leaving you w/ piloting skills and a Warrant Officer position)

Any advice/help would be great.

(It doesnt have to do w/ piloting, any program that leaves you w/ good training that doesnt associate itself w/ college; right out of High School)

I'm not talking about those of you who just disagree with Bush, and the prosecution of the Iraq War, but those of you who truly feel that you should NEVER fight, put the warfare in a "1 on 1, or several on 1" context.
Putting aside the natural instinct to just stay alive, If that's what you truly feel, why even defend yourself? Wouldn't you agree that there are situations in which you must fight?

Is the US really bothered about the Irani nuclear project or is it just an excuse to Poke them into action.
The Arab people are ancient and proud civilisations, if you send in a WOMAN diplomat to slap them in the face with a wet fish, how do you expect them to react?
Surley if you are in fear of the nuclear programme, simply bomb the plant before it is finnished every time. and in return supply Iran with FREE electricity.
