      These Jihadists weren't there before the invasion.

        Duh.. Iraq is a magnet for the terrorist who would otherwise be trying to get into the US.

          So basically, the US decided that rather than US citizens, it'd make Iraqis die in the crossfire of a fight between US and Jihadists?

              Yes, they were. The invasion just motivated them more.

                Ok, I got it. Iraqis don't matter so they're perfect for being made to suffer in place of Americans.

                You may carry on.

                  Actually - everyone matters less than me. You're just lucky it isn't Scandinavian terrorists running around.

                    Well that makes sense.

                    But as far as clothing and weapons, you would think the army would have all that figured out before they commited snipers to battle.

                      You implied they were wimps sitting at home getting off on sniper fantasies. They say they ARE professional snipers, though not all are in the army.

                      Am i the only one who remembers when it was the RIGHT that was all incensed about one particular federal sniper?

                        All of the soldiers I saw were very well equiped. The government gave me more crap then I knew what to do with.

                          Umhh.. I thought this was some students who were behind this. Now you say they are other snipers?

                            Funny you never hear about Scandinavian terrorists. Wonder why that is? Do they even exist?

                            Now Scandinavia you should get out there in the world and start pissing people off. All the while making your rich richer and then you can have your own little crusade.

                              "A U.S. university in Wisconsin has blocked an attempt by Republican students to raise money for a group called "Adopt a Sniper" that raises money for U.S. sharp-shooters in Iraq and Afghanistan.
                              The students were selling bracelets bearing the motto "1 Shot 1 Kill No Remorse I Decide." "

                              The group adopt a sniper is made up of professional snipers. The students were raising funds for the group, but they hadnt organized the effort. Should only doctors/scientists be allowed to raise money for cancer research? Is it wrong for students who dont want to become doctors to raise money to equip those who do?

                                dudn't make any sense. Scandinavian tellolists that is. It wouldn't be the same anyway, because it would be domestic problem, not international. Or several domestic ones. Because our govs are going to handle it, and unlike with some countries, we can cooperate with our friends. Besides, if it happens in here, it's our problem. If it happens there by us, then it's our mutual problem and we both work it honestly and with integrity. If it happens in here by you, then we both again work it out with honesty and integrity.
