Smartest meaning intelligent? The first thing I would have to ask is about what subject?
About military subjects, I think myself along with some of the other vets in here would know what is going on.
About JW issues, probably everyone else on this board except me being that I am a never been.
So what is my point? Simply this, I think it all depends on that individuals experiences. College degrees don't neccessarily mean that you are smart, it just means that you are able to learn.
BTW, I am definitely not the brightest lamp in my house.
could a war with iraq be more difficult than expected?
i found an interesting site, where they claim that iraq could indeed defeat the us.
tell me your comments after reading it.
No!
there have been many postings regarding the possible war with iraq.
there are many strong apposing views, as to be expected.. i personally am going to thank all those who are in the military; my hat is off to you, and i respect what you do, and i am very thankful.
you are the ones that must go out there and defend our freedoms.. i don't think most people desire war, but sometimes there seems to be little choice.
Pathofthorns, I agree with everything that you said.

<-----------Ain't wasting any more time talking to people who just don't see the facts.
Thanks to those who support the Armed Forces.
i just feel the need to tell eveyone on this board what a great friend xenaw has been to me.
she is thoughtful ,kind, generous, funny, and trustworthy.
i know there has been alot of things said in the last few days about her and i don't know the whole story to what all is being said, has been said, about this lastest gossip.
Can't we vote Skeptic off the island?"Skeptic, the tribe has spoken. It's time for you to go."
ROFLMAO

My God, they do give little boys real weapons to play with, don't they soldier boy. Do you have any idea how adolescent you sound? Obviously not! You should be more respectful towards your elders, and all those who were here long before you came along.
Do you think I care if I sound "adolescent" to you? I am not here to impress you or anyone else. What you need to keep in mind is that you slammed me first by miscomprehending my statement. I am just giving you a taste of your own medicine.
As for my elders, I respect those that earn my respect, which you have failed to do. If indeed you are my elder, of which I don't care to know anyway. Like I said, I am not here to impress anyone.
it hit me a few days ago.
what happens if the u.n. searchs iraq and they find nothing?
i mean it's kind of scary to think what will happen to bush's job approval rating if that happens.
I know what all of you wonderfull pacifists can do! Why dont you all send some Christmas cards to Saddam! Its going to the be the last Christmas he has..... ~ crazy151drinker
Hahahaha

XW, I have chatted with you a few times and I think you are cool. Besides that, you have a good looking sword!!
Hope to see you around.

Yardirf, lefty, whomever you want to be today, tomorrow, next week, said:
maximumflash,
Now for Yardirf and all of the Americans out there that can criticize and whine about the actions being taken, I urge you to leave the country and go some third world nation that restricts your movement in the country, right to vote, right to speak freely, right to practice religion freely, etc. Then see just how free you really are.
You and TR both exihibit the same spirit as those who persecuted the JWs in Malawi for their refusal to bow down to President Banda's silly requirement. I don't doubt for a second that the two of you are just as capable of brutally mistreating other humans.
You "urge" me to leave the country? Why don't you try and make me leave, sir? Wouldn't you like to do that? Like I've already said, I'm NOT a pacifist.
.
Soldiers in the United States Armed Forces do not get to pick and choose their own wars, that decision is left to the US Government. It is our duty to uphold those decisions so people like you can pick and choose what it is that you wish to do in this Nation. The thing that irritates me is people like you that disrespect veterans that make your lifestyle possible.
As for brutally mistreating other humans, I will tell you that if and when I get deployed to a hostile nation where other soldiers/terrorists are trying to take my life, I will not hessitate to shoot first and ask questions later. I charish my life and my country too much for it to be taken by the hands of someone else. Being, as I doubt, that you have never served in the armed forces, I also doubt you will be able to understand this concept.
Why don't I make you leave the country, "sissy

I thought too how interesting it is, that those who are now in the military, or have been, basically support the possible war with Iraq. These are the people who really have their ass on the line. THEY will be there, not the majority of us. And they support the issue. Could be that perhaps they have more of clear idea what is going on?
I also noticed, that those who are supporting the war if it were to happen, and those that maybe don't support it but do support the people who serve, act very similar. There is a certain sense of calmness; not so quick to call others names, etc. Very level headed.
Maybe, just maybe, those who are in a position to actually make the decisions on this and other military actions, are thinking very clearly and rationally. Maybe they are not so quite eager to go to war than people would like to assume. Maybe the reasons for going are quite a bit more deep than we think.
Well said. Although my clearheaded reply above is getting cloudy.

What a lame excuse for a reply.
We are willing to stand up against the brutal people that would brutalize you...as an American. Are you willing to do the same? What an ingrate you are. Now go play with your RC cars, and be glad that patriotic Americans made it possible.

My hat is off to you Lew. Along with all the other veterans that are out there. I salute you all.The color of purity thing has got me stumped. I was sure that the color purity inTo Max and Yeru, I again extend my hearty thanks for being there to go and protect us all. TO Trauma, may I remind you that an attack did occur on American soil. And, it will again if these people are not dealt withBut, believe it or not and no thanks expected, it's been guys like me, Max and Yeru, as well as Animal, TR, and many others who have actually put our butts on the line or at least been willing to, just so you can drive that "color of purity" Dodge truck and also act like a complete ass whenever you feel like it.screw Yadirf and Lefty, both of himLew W
