Military - March 2007

In this 'strategy', Pelosi proposes that we basically take our army as if it were in a dog fight, the US army being our dog, and basically shoot it in the leg so that it gets it's @$$ kicked before we throw in the towel. She proposes we cut funding by huge amounts (this being while we still have our troops in Iraq) and then spend the funds on other stuff, during war-time nonetheless.

In response, just simply tell me one adjective to describe this so-called strategy. I'm putting my vote in for "Irresponsible"

Should the US retrieve all the uranium it lent to country's outside this country, back in the eighties? If it isn't available to be returned, should the US insist on accountability from these nations as to its where abouts?

If this uranium has been spent, how was it disposed of? Does the US have an effective method of disposing of spent uranium, itself? Has either political party embraced this issue for the American people, or are they still stuck on minimum wage entitlements, for the illegals of California?

Think about it for a little while: First: We have lost just over 3000 soldiers of a deployed force of 144,000 active soldiers. Now while I'm sorry for the families of those lost soldiers, that's still nothing compared to the rest of the force and all the private military contractors we've employed over there also. Second: For the most part, terrorist attacks have been directed at civilian areas patrolled by US troops, not our military installations. And Third of all: We can't exactly pull out or it will be just another Vietnam. Us being there is the only thing keeping the groups from taking over the country, because the Iraqi government is not prepared enough to take on all the terrorists that are there.

One more thing I would like to add is that although we are in there, success does not depend on us alone, it also requires the effort of the Iraqi government, so you can't go blaming Bush every time something goes wrong. Think about it

Agree or disagree? Why? Any reasons? TY

I do not understand why some people are getting PH for sprained ankles but not for severe concussions after being hit with an IED. I also don't understand how people who receive BS/SS for meritorious service when they never did anything considered "out of the ordinary" when there are soldiers out there taking the brunt of an IED blow or insurgent attack who simply get ARCOMS with V device for saving the rest of the crew's life and limbs. I hope someone who has been there, done that (and with a brain) can answer this!

To those back home
I am gone
yet my memory will go on
kiss the kids I love them so
let them know I had to go
Tell my parents there are no regrets
to those who I fought beside
who came from nation wide
you are all my brothers and sisters
to my bride brush those tears aside
I am here so far yet so near
I am all around in the sky and in the ground
I am in our kids
in your heart
my love caries on
when u need me look to the sky
let your mind fly
I will be there holding your hand
goodbye to those I love
we will meet again one day
we will play in the heavens above

I have been to several funerals of U.S. Army soldiers and U.S. Marines in the past year and have NEVER heard taps played...the Soldier/Marine uses an electronic device in the bugle that plays for him. I went today to the funeral of a U.S. Marine and the bugler was standing across from the Patriot Guard Riders and he didn't even breath as taps was being played! A young school friend of mine who plays trumpet/bugle, etc said she'd be more than happy to play taps FOR REAL. What is with the military anymore that it doesn't have buglers who can play taps?

I don't know a lot about the Iraq war and stuff..so i was wondering if you guys could help me =)
Based on how we handled the situations in both Iraq and Afghanistan, define the approaches we took. Was it our best interest to act the way we did?
What is a better method of fighting--attack or defend?? and WHY?

I'm not saying that I want the war to continue, but every person fighting in Iraq is there because they volunteered at some point. Military families seem to believe that we need to stay and fight the terrorists, while many others just want to protect the troops and bring them home.

Do you think that the US government can protect our country from terrorism if we come home now?

I'd say if they had the will power, Japan and Germany.

Sure, they don't have the physical arms right now, but if provoked I think these countries could easily come up with what would be necessary to obliterate the U.S.

Strangely, I don't see Russia as ever being a threat. They're the opposite where they have the arms, but I can't see any will power there.
