This is going to be my last post in this thread that has anything to do with you. You have personal feelings of distaste towards me and that is fueling you to continue an argument that is feeble and unsupported. Seriously, no civil war? After saying something that dumb, you should have no right to post in the politics section ever again. Sunni vs. Shiite moron... Its the basis to this whole freaking insurgency. Ugh..
Secondly, you didn't show us anything, you pointed out the same thing I did and interpreted it the way you wanted to.
Seriously? Are you that dumb? Everyone in America has rights, citizen or not. An alien to this country has the same right to a trial as I do, the fact that you would think differently is just sad... And the fact that we were only in Somalia for about a week is insignificant, and it even proves my point. Less people are dying now, so I'm not sure what you're trying to prove. Jesus...
If you're actually serious about comparing the war to counter strike in a serious and realistic manner, you're a moron. I invite you, even ASK of you to hop over to Ramadi and try to take "85 damage" from a grenade exploding at head level... You will be surprised.
Yes, the Germans gave the Japanese technology, but they didn't assist in Pearl Harbor, you have proven nothing. That is why that little "Declaration of War" you speak of didn't talk about the Germans, the Japs acted on their own there. And that same declaration of war wasn't meant to warn the USA about imminent attack, because that would just be plain dumb. "Uhm, yes, excuse-a-me. We are about to attack you, we just wanted to be-a-polite about it." So no, the Declaration was to make war final, not to give us a heads up.
You're right about Iran but I'm not saying we should pull out so I wont speak about that. Also, he was messing around about trading weapons to terrorists.. everyone knows you cant really do that. Plus, an embargo doesn't give the authority to seize properties once in its destination. You need a warrant for that.
Again, you're a moron, the Vietnam army was highly trained, as was the original Iraqi army we faced. They knew what they were doing. Think before you speak. Now we are facing insurgents, not trained soldiers.
We may not be able to bomb cities but we can damn sure use Javelins and Smart bombs to take out insurgency strongholds. It may not be all out bomb-rape, but a smart bomb can level a building with litle to know collateral damage. Plus our ground level guns out-match theirs so much that its almost sad. An AK is pretty much impossible to break, but that wood cant shoot like our steel.
Lastly, the topic of this whole thread is supposed to be the draft, so none of this proves anything to be honest. Nothing I said or you said. Just keep in mind that no matter what radical ignorants say or do, the men and women of this country can decide to not pursue the military. You can call them un-American and try to take away their rights but that makes you even worse than our enemies. They can call you ignorants, but that doesn't much help the troops.
Talking to actual members of the military you'll see a general consensus that
our volunteers army doesn't even want those people that don't want to join. If they don't want to be there, they don't have to be there. We want people that will put their whole hearts into fighting for this country. That is one of the reasons Vietnam was such a failure, because half the people there didn't want to be a part of it. I'm done on this topic because we fail to see each others points entirely and its going no where. May it please get back onto the topic of the draft?
