I think he means that he's satisfied with the extent of the genocide.[/quote]
Stupid comment, Danny.

We'll be out soon enough.
Talk to the people actually over there--when there is real danger--our guys have to take care of it--the Iraqis puss out.
Like I said, behind the times. Many Americans, stationed in what were previously the most dangerous areas of Iraq, haven't fired their weapons in months. It's all over but the mop-up operations. It's time to celebrate, so go ahead and cut loose!
That is unless you feel bad about our triumph over the forces of darkness that was al Qaeda in Iraq. And if that's the case, just go fuck yourself.
And in other joyous news, that piece of crap Rashid Rauf, along with three of his cornhole buddies, just got his shit blown away by a Predator drone somewhere in "the border region of Pakistan". Party on!

Heck yeah I'll drink a beer to victory in Iraq !
A lot of sacrifice was made, but if it leaves a free, stable democracy there....then it just may have been worth it.

Yea I have mixed feelings about posting that. It's always easy to bash others. Working on your own flaws is tougher. That's what climbing is for.Why do we risk life and limb for a summit or to get to the chains? Having done so leaves us better prepared to deal with life's battles.

There's a lot of truth to that, though not all Christians, Muslims, and Jews hate each other. In fact, I'm sure the haters are in the minority, a very troublesome minority.

Just stating a fact is not saying anything negative about our troops. If you read what I said, my friends (the troops) told me that the Iraqi "military" folks are unwilling to do their own fighting. Like I said. It is only "over" while we stay there and fight their battles, which we cannot do indefinitely. As soon as we go--they will be right back at it. Sad but true.

If you have never been issued a weapon in defense of this country, you have NO right to an opinion about war. That should stir the pot.
