Body Count for this Week's Episode of "Over There"

Recommended Posts

Well, yea, it is splitting hairs - think this over---

But one foot in a bucket of water, a metal one. Attach the negative lead to the bucket. Then since the fucker is grounded - you can goose him until he sings like a castrated canary........

My mind is not a place you want to go - this is one of the TAME thoughts.....

Welcome back to the US.

Your opinion seems shaped by your experiences. Unfortunately your personal reality is not the same one as seen by the rest of the world, or recent history.

When you've decompressed a little more it's a discussion that could be continued.

Conversly you could read back over previous threads that discussed and illustrated the falsity of your statement in great detail.

TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

Ok, let me re-phrase?

Most of the terrorists in the Middle East are Muslim extremists.

I have experienced terrorism firsthand - it is an ugly thing, my friend. And to think that there are so many out there......

As far as my reality is concerned, I have had more than most, less than some - too much for anyone.

Decompress - interesting term. Easier said than done. Talking about it helps - thanks.

Just a few points for you to think about:

1) Most people in the Middle East are Muslims. Actually most victims of terrorism in Iraq are Muslims. So... the statement: Most terrorists are Muslims is like saying most murderers in the US are Christians.
2) There was no terrorism in Iraq prior to the Invasion. Saddam is/was a bad MoFu - but was invading Iraq the right strategy? And don't tell me it's part of "the war on terror" - Iraq had very little to do with Al Qaeda - if that was the purpose the US should have invaded Saudi Arabia instead.

I thought it over and I'm still not getting it. If you are using an automotive-type battery and jumper cables, I can see where the bucket of water (NOT deionized, and you might want to add some salt or something) would make it easy to get a decent contact for one of the cables, I don't see where grounding really has any affect.

And trust me, I don't mind going where your thoughts are.

Uh, well EVERY one of the bad guy's we took care of in the hospital asked for a Koran once they found out we would give them one. I have too many stories - they attack from mosques, schools, and hospitals. I experienced the culture FIRST HAND. There is so much more to the situation of Iraq, all you are getting back here is just the tip of the iceburg.

I don't think we need to be over there - we are playing world police more than anything. American Soldiers are dying for a country that will not care what we did for them.
