trigger happy kiddie soldiers? Rashak Mani

Big talk from a guy who has trouble distinguishing between the use of nuclear weapons and DU armaments. I’m just saying, is all, that I haven’t been impressed by your own dispassionate judgement or deep understanding – seems like you’re mostly along for the “let’s put the boot into the US” ride.

Yawn. My point, as you well know, was that an administration that so vehmently condemns the use of WMD by other states yet is willing to use weapons that, I believe, clearly fall into any sustainable definition of weapons of mass destruction must give us concern about their future restraint for using more serious weapons. As pointed out in the other bits of the thread that you didn’t link to.

So I take it you haven’t managed to come up with a definition of WMD yet that allows you to exclude DU weapons, but include those fearsome rusty anthrax shells that Saddam was going to kill us all with?

So you think refining any of the procedures wouldn’t possibly help these situations in the future?

Of Bush’s making

Unlike you, I’m mature enough to seperate my disapproval of the war from the need for our soldiers to defend themselves

We realize they can’t pull out, they have to stay in, we don’t have choice.

Like him or not, you have to question whether invading Iraq was a good move.

Our “freedom fighters”? I’ve never seen a single post in this thread in support of the insurgents. Feel free to provide one, or feel free to shut the fuck up.

I support our troops, I don’t support the war. Too bad you’re too fucking stupid to realize the difference.

Like… just like… 9/11 happened get over it ?

Funny how some things must be accepted and left aside and other must continually be lauded as reasons for something to be done. This “accept it and leave it behind mentality” could have avoided some of the current circumstances. Still why should Iraqis and other countries accept the situation while the GOP keeps banging the drums of war and repeating 9/11 like a mantra ?

Don’t do yourself down World Eater . Why must there be a difference? ‘I support the troops so I don’t support the war’ is at least as logical as the reverse and probably more so.

Good point.

I’ll tell you what. I’ll drop five pounds of depleted uranium in the corner of my office. You drop an aerosol of five pounds of weaponized anthrax in the corner of yours. This will, I trust, make the distinction painfully clear to you.

You know I really think you wouldn’t, but this really isn’t the thread and I’d be repeating myself anyway if I tried to add anything to what I already said in the other thread.

Should remind you now or later that weaponized anthrax hasn’t been found in Iraq?

In fact the only item found (IIRC) was a rusty old sarin shell that exploded in the faces of the soldiers handling it. The WMD inside was so deadly that it took them an entire half hour to return to duty.

The point being of course that if SH or OBL were using depleted uranium in some fashion, we would spin it as a WMD so fast your head would twist off and ascend up to the sky like a flying saucer.

That has nothing to do with Avenger’s special idiocy. He has repeatedly made the claim that the use of depleted uranium is a WMD on the same order as anthrax or sarin. And it’s just not true.
I’m just saying that if you’re going to be flinging around terms like “ignorant twat”, it behooves you not to be one.

Hey, someone wants to imply that I support the actions of suicide bombers and terrorists just because I don’t accept without question the actions of any member of the US Army, I’ll call them an ignorant twat.

Let’s be realistic, if SH had some DU shells laying around, do you think the US would have spun them to be WMD, or related to WMD in some sense?

Be honest…

Honestly, it’s not worth it, I’ve already tried. The DU thing was actually only an aside rather than even the main point that I was arguing :frowning:

Easier to nail something down after the first one is in. :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah well, your a cunt, so I’m not surprised you can’t think of anything to say. :wally

Sure it would. But thats not the point dummy. the point is that your ilk wants to describe US soldiers as triggerhappy kiddies because you don’t like the war, Bush, or the current procedues. If you think I am wrong quote one person here who is in your corner who hasn’t used one of those three reasons to call the US sodiers triggerhappy. Or name one who has stated their case despite one of those 3 reasons.

What are you in like second grade? I know you are but what am I. LOL. Unlike most of you I never brought up wether I approve ir dissaprove of the war WRT troop actions now did I? But ieven in this fucking post you did. If you can seperate them then good for you, just don’t bring it up.

You really are one ignorant fuck, you know that? If you can seperate the war from the troops, then don’t fucking compare the two when you talk about troop actions. And if you personally did not say something I am refering to, then don’t act like a dipshit and assume I automatically mean you. You know you have to be one arrogant numbnuts to tell someone to shut up in their own thread. How about you stay the fuck out if you don’t like what you read ya dumbass. :slight_smile:

"It appears that in your increasingly militaristic society wearing an uniform is akin to having a licence to kill with impunity. Wave the flag, talk about some obscure goals somehow involving “freedom and the American Way” and blast anyone who gets in the way. Hell, it obviously doesn’t even matter if they are actually on your side. Yeah, some fuckin’ “heroes” these guys were.

Fuck them and fuck you!

Hail, Bush!"

"As I’ve often said – twice in this very thread – you lot are so predictable in your zeal to dismiss any wrongdoings by your nation and your Murderous Misleader & ruling cabal as to qualify for non-prescriptive sleeping aids:
Again, a mess to be sure, but one of your own making and one that some of you continue to support. Meanwhile, your nervous and trigger happy kids continue to mow down literally countless innocents. Just as the object of this worthless pitting originally stated.

I am pretty sure this dipshit considers the insurgents fighting against the “man”. I also consider his blatant biggotry towards the US as in lockstep with those terrorists.

Well said.

So don’t tell me not to question our rules of engagement if you yourself acknowledge that they can be improved. There have been many documented incidents in which a handful of inexperienced soldiers have been too quick on the trigger. This is fucking fact, and our feeling on the war and the admin waging it have fuck all to do with those facts.

I’m in my own corner here, let the others defend themselves. Point out where I’ve listed any of those reasons.

I don’t give a shit if you did or not, it doesn’t change the facts.

Where have I done such a thing?

Then don’t open pit threads. Say. when does your guest thing expire anyway. Let me know so I can count the days.

Btw, I would be equally upset if such an incident occured in Afghanistan, a war and a move I thought Bush was 100% correct in taking.

You know what sonny? If you can quote or even infer from some fucked up umagination that I tiold you that then you win a cookie. It seems you have imaginary conversations with me that I’m not privy to.

My god your an arrogant bastard. You have done nothing in your post 83 but defend others when you attack my accusations at other people for the things they have said. Before that post you wern’t part of the conversation at all except to snipe with some obscure comments that I basically ignored because I didn’t see it as part of the conversation everyone else was having. And unlike you, unless someone actually said something, I don’t attribute to them an accusation they never made.

The only fact I see is the one where you accused me of something you have no fucking basis but your demented imagination.

Say what? You wont be an arrogant numbnuts if I don’t open pit threads. And don’t get your hopes up about my guest expiration, there will still be people around to tell you what an ignoramus you can be. :cool:
