Occupation death toll of U.S. troops equal to that of war

Yeah, assuming he's anything more than fragments of taped voice to be spliced into a new audio tape every few months, and that if alive, he has enough room to even stand up in whatever little ****hole he's hiding in like some cur dog, he's probably boogieing down to Saturday Night Fever.

You wish...

We've really seen evidence of that "endless supply of recruits," haven't we? And even if he has new recruits, where are they going to train?

I didn't realise that one needed a great amount of training to be a suicide bomber.

Whatever gets you through the night.

Certainly not more of your tired militaristic ravings. Surely you have better things to do than stick up for a bunch of inbred Okies who shoot at their own side as much as at the enemy.

Doesn't matter, because the rest of the world is even weaker still.

That's not what he meant. He meant that the US public really has no stomach for a real fight (i.e. one in which Americans die). As far as I can see he has recent history on his side.

Nope.

It boils down to your attempt to establish a puppet vs their efforts in drawing blood.

This "freedom" thing rings so hollow now...

Agreed. The right might as well say "They hate our McDonalds" and they would have a more compelling case.

Once again for the record. The facts prove that the right have zero credibility on this issue. It was a BS war for BS reasons and it's leading to a BS outcome. You all lied about the war and you're lying about the peace. End of story really.. these attempts to salvage some credibility are growing increasingly amusing.

"our presence in the region is the key cause behind terrorisms' existence and it's focus on us..."

I don't think so or Saudi wouldn't have let us on their soil, no matter what the reason.

"And you don't think Osama chose those guys because of the relationship between SA and the US? It was his intent to create a rift between Arabs and the US."

They already didn't like us, all they think is we are the infidels that support Israel, state run media plays a major role here. We didn't have a chance from the start.

"If you attack Saudi Arabia, you create WW3... good plan"

Who will form an axis against us, Russia and China, not likely over Saudi, I am more worried about the massive loss of lives in Saudi if we did have to attack.

"We don't have to create democracy in Iraq... we need to stabilize the country. The security and safety of America is my primary concern... a stable Iraq is in everyone's best interest. Bush's strategy is destabilizing the region. It's like a grease fire... instinct tells you that water puts out fire... but throwing water on a grease fire is the wrong way to extinguish it"

You said it yourself, they have been fighting for thousands of years, only democracy can be a long term solution to a long term problem, if nothing else, if really hasn't been tried.

Agathon,
P-p-p-p-p-p-p-paranoia!
100 deaths per day from 1 in Iraq, really...............who is being paranoid? I have a better chance with an asteroid.

"And what does September the 11th have to do with Iraq? Nothing, until GWB attacked it and gave AQ a shot in the arm."

Read above and learn.

And the word is "ridiculous" dear boy...

Thanks honey. I couldn't have slept tonight without knowing that.

hey defiant, can you use the quote function please? it's getting harder to read your posts.

[Defiant]

It's not funny, I don't know how to do that, I will do it, now that I hopefully know how. Thanks.

An effort we were glad to help, and to stand by while the saud's funded it lavishly..after all, good God-fearing boys like Osama can only hate them Godless commies, no?

Of course, there are other orgs that seek to create Islamist states that don't particularly care to attack the US.

We threw a little bit of money at most everyone who wanted to kill a commie for mommy. It was called the cold war, remember?

So what evidence do you have that he's alive or doing anything in particular? The occasional audiotape shows up, but OBL hasn't been seen live on video (his preferred medium) for a while now.

I didn't realise that one needed a great amount of training to be a suicide bomber.

If you don't mind blowing yourself up at any time, and don't care if you panic, no. Infiltrating to the target and maintaining the presence of mind to get to the best spot and not be detected by security takes a bit of work.

Certainly not more of your tired militaristic ravings. Surely you have better things to do than stick up for a bunch of inbred Okies who shoot at their own side as much as at the enemy.

I'm much less certain that you can come up with something more substantive than nonsense like the above.

That's not what he meant. He meant that the US public really has no stomach for a real fight (i.e. one in which Americans die). As far as I can see he has recent history on his side.

We've gotten much better at killing a lot without dying a lot, so why should we fight these goat-eating dumbasses at their level?

I can understand misfires but how do you die while cleaning your rifle? Do you stab yourself in the eye with the cleaning rod?

A gunshot wound when cleaning a weapon incorrectly is a surprisingly common accident. Rifle cleaning accidents mainly involve incorrect safety procedure when loading and unloading or assembling and disassembling.

Some pistols are very dangerous to clean if not done correctly - especially those with a hidden magazine and chamber like the 9mm pistol.

I dont' think most of the Muslim world can point out the USA on a map,

Most Americans can't find IRAQ on a map. Let alone Lebenon, Syria, etc

[Alexander's Horse]

or spell Lebanon....

just because American kids are stupid, doesn't mean others are...

and here's a clue for ya if you vow to smite an enemy from the planet, you take 5 minutes to show your kids where the infidels live... trust me, they know who is dropping the bombs and where they come from.
