Made me sick reading this , wondered why do we bother ? :(
Because theres no other chance. America and England dug there hole moving into Iraq, now they gotta get out.
Methinks some of these militias are playing the media game, peat.Quote:

We? Canadian troops are not in Iraq last time I checked, although sending them is a good idea (I used to oppose the idea, but now that the US has gone in and turned the place to shit, every soldier helps in order to maintain peace).Quote:

There's plenty of British who would cheer a crash of a British helicopter, it's really a non-issue. When my age was in the single digits me and my friends got a good laugh watching the space shuttle Challenger explode on live TV, it was like if your gonna go for a rocket ride you just might die, just like they did.
I'll bet that Indonesian Christmas tsunami a while back really popped your cork, too, huh?Quote:

I think we have expect things like this. Occupying forces good or bad will always be the object of resentment at some level.
What worries me is the results of the Iraqi troop training. One group upon graduation mutinied when told they wouldn't be stationed next to their homes.
Hardball... iraqi soldiers report 2.4 mb
I suppose the "liberal press" is to blame :rolleyes:
How would you know, you FOXNEWS addict. :lol:Quote:
