The war in Iraq is WON, the definitive PIC!

Why do they need US troops to defend their pipeline to Israel? PERMANENTLY?

Oh, wait, maybe because the general opulation of IRAQ HATES the fact that their oil is being piped there?
And here I was thinking you were a fun-loving guy.
Turns out you're a Democrat. :rolleyes:
That's what I get for thinkin'.

That movie actually was paraphrasing this famous line:

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. ...

The War in Iraq is a total FAILURE..

Anyone who thinks a cross on a church means victory..is well, a little slow.
For months, years, Al Q tried to divide the Sunnis and Shiites

With beheadings, Mosque bombings etc

Religion against religion

Christian Churches burned, Priests killed

Muslim against Muslim, sects against sects

Our own MSM gleefully played that angle up with the attendant, THEY ARE FIGHTING A CIVIL WAR

Maybe they were, maybe there was truth to that

The tide seems to have turned

Will it last, will it stick?

We should all hope that it does.

To so hopefully look forward to watching it disintegrate and to so hopefull denigrate the positive events

Paints those that do, as the EVIL ONES!

Oh, this PIC and this development may be but one isolated and forgotten event,

It may indeed be an ICONIC moment

The turning point

We all should hope so!

The DUMZ/LIBZ/MSM wont, its NOT their hoped for end result

Lets remeber

When the Iwo pic was taken, months of deadly fighting remained

BUT VICTORY THEN WAS ASSURED, AS VICTORY NOW IS ASSURED

But for the DUMZ that stand in the way!
 
he seems to be intelligent

but I do believe that TROOFERS are mostly NUTS

how else to explain their belief in what is mostly insanity?



there is a

psychological term for it (which escapes me now) that semingly normal and bright people in ALL aspects of life, are INSANE over one or two issues!

You can't remember your own diagnosis? Call your Therapist, I'm sure he has it written down in big black letters across the top of your file.

If you start comparing Iraq to Vietnam, I swear, I am gonna kick your ass.


It's WORSE than Vietnam...

A Republican started it and Democrats don't end wars without going nuclear...




:D :D :D
 
It’s one of those photographs that takes the breath - there is a feeling of cognitive dissonance. Some of us on one side - who perhaps have never understood why we went to Iraq in the first place - may look at this picture and say, “but…but…Iraq is a hell-hole, an unmanageable, unwinnable, place of civil strife, death and occupied people who hate us!”

Some on the other side, who - overwhelmed with images of burned flags and screaming mobs - may have forgotten the humanity of the Iraqi people (people we let down once before, and who had reason to distrust us and our commitment) may see these Muslims and Christians raising a cross together, in a language of brotherhood and gratitude, and say, “but…but…all those people are bad people…”

Some of us will discover that we have said or thought both things at one time or another. It’s not important which one of those people you are. It’s important, though, to get a sense of what is going on over there, where our people are serving, living and dying. It’s important to realize that where there is danger and tragedy, there is also progress and hope. In the major media outlets, we get big servings of the first two and very niggardly helpings of the latter. We need a more balanced diet of information.

In truth, we know so little. So much of the information we get from Iraq is filtered and delivered from “safe” locations. So little of it is unfiltered and delivered from the Iraqi streets.

Yon is delivering Iraq to us from the streets, and he’s doing it on donated dimes.

Wretchard compares this photo, in spirit, to the raising of the flag at Iwo Jima. Rand Simberg calls it Pulitzer-worthy. I don’t know; I’m no judge of such things.

What I see in this picture is something more than a historic moment - I don’t even know if that’s what we should call it - I see the sort of thing people do when they are neighbors, when they are working together for their neighborhood, for the good of all who live there, and that makes it seem less “historic” than calmly, wonderfully normal, ordinary, wholesome and sane. I see tolerance, which so many are so certain cannot exist in Iraq - or anywhere in the Middle East. Tolerance in the best sense of the word - converting no one, insisting on nothing beyond ordinary acceptance; tolerance that gives people room to live their lives.

French President Nicolas Sarkozy, in a stirring speech I urge you to read in its entirety, just said to Congress:

America did not tell the millions of men and women who came from every country in the world and who—with their hands, their intelligence and their heart—built the greatest nation in the world: “Come, and everything will be given to you.” She said: “Come, and the only limits to what you’ll be able to achieve will be your own courage and your own talent.” America embodies this extraordinary ability to grant each and every person a second chance.

Sarkozy is right; America is the land of second chances, and to me that is what we see in this photograph. A second chance for the Iraqi people, to take their lives and fortunes into their own hands after decades of oppression and tyranny. A second chance for trust to be built - between Iraq and America - where it was once squandered. A second chance for America, itself, which went into Iraq with noble intentions but unreal expectations, and which has managed to adapt and learn. This photograph is a defiant positive in a story of relentless negatives.

Will the photo help bring about a “moment,” of national coalescence on the war? Doubtful. But it should be seen and discussed. I do think the photo might become iconic, if it disseminated through the mainstream press.

Sarkozy also declared:

What made America great was her ability to transform her own dream into hope for all mankind.

This picture says that. Profoundly.
 
From an Iraqi

It says it all!

Can they love their country more than they hate their president?

Often times the truth is much easier to see from the outside. This truth about too many Americans is easy for this Iraqi to see:

Frankly, I don’t understand why so many mock us for wanting a future for Iraq. Is your hatred for George Bush so great that you prefer to see millions of civilians suffer just to prove him wrong?

It really comes down to this: you are determined to see Iraq become a permanent hellhole because you hate Bush. And we are determined to see Iraq become a success, because we want to live.
 
You know Nancy just HATES France now that she knows what the world thinks of us aside from Hugo, Fidel, Arm'nHammerJabber...

Oh please, please, please, let me answer the question. I'm good at the easy ones...

YES! OI!
 
its "funny" how the DUMZ keep saying the WORLD hates us and THEY will restore LOVE to us

when in fact,

the recent elections in Germany and France show EXACTLY the opposite

Oh yes, SOME in the world HATE us,

the DICTATORS, the TERRORISTS and THE LIBZ/DUMZ!
