War notes from flyover country, where we support the war.

Let's start up where we left off last night with those fawking idiots, the p_p_DonWAVIANS and the NHRE crowd...

“En route, Marines ordered every passing vehicle to pull to the side of the road; passengers got out and put their hands over their heads. The roadside was strewn with black combat boots, discarded by Iraqi men who no longer wanted to be identified as soldiers.”

Didn’t I tell you so? Two types of Iraqi soldiers as predicted by Barry Faber based on Isreal's REAL experience with fighting Arabs, especially the Iraqi's






Don't listen to ANYONE from Europe (or the Canadian and Aussie Euros for that matter).

Media mogul Rupert Murdoch said Wednesday Americans have an inferiority complex about the world's opinion and that Iraqis eventually will welcome U.S. troops as liberators.

"We worry about what people think about us too much in this country. We have an inferiority complex, it seems," Murdoch said at the Milken Institute Global Conference. "I think what's important is that the world respects us, much more important than they love us."

Agreed!






America, I predict is soon going to have a new hero. A new kind of hero.

LYNCH, A 19-YEAR-OLD supply clerk, continued firing at the Iraqis even after she sustained multiple gunshot wounds and watched several other soldiers in her unit die around her in fighting March 23, one official said. The ambush took place after a 507th convoy, supporting the advancing 3rd Infantry Division, took a wrong turn near the southern city of Nasiriyah.

‘FIGHTING TO THE DEATH’
“She was fighting to the death,” the official said. “She did not want to be taken alive.” Lynch was also stabbed when Iraqi forces closed in on her position, the official said, noting that initial intelligence reports indicated that she had been stabbed to death. No official gave any indication yesterday, however, that Lynch’s wounds had been life-threatening.

I hope the brave woman heals up both mentaly and physicaly. She served her country and her country can be proud.

I think she will, even that degenerate p_p_man was full of admiration for her family. I think she'll be fine.

that degenerate p_p_man

That's a bit derogatory to all us other degenerates!

LOL - What country did p_p_ emigrate from and is he in country legally?

He's indigenous to that part of the Thames, bloody odd crowd.

If he did but know I lived there about 28 yearsago!

Can you provide GPS coordinates?

The bombers ARE taking off from England and we have already "Accidently" hit Iran.

Notice they aren't screaming too loudly... I still wonder what we accidently hit... Like when we accidently hit the Chinese Embassy in Belgrad, was it...?

You're safe. Now any one in Paris, on the other hand...

I'm in Japan....where we don't get Fox News, and wouldn't believe it anyway.

So far, on Japanese TV and in the newspapers, we get a very different story from what you've been told in the USA. Our media networks actually analyze the news, not just report what the Pentagon or the US government or Tony Blair or George W. Bush says as if it was gospel truth.

They make comparisons with other sources, they use pictures taken by commercial satellites, they ask lots of questions, they ring-up Japanese people travelling through or staying in Iraq and other places in the Middle-East.

We see what the US & British news networks are saying, and most of the time, it's obvious that they are telling very big lies and only acting as propaganda tools for the US/UK military.

You can trick yourselves into a delusionary world where the USA is always right....but the lies don't work in the rest of the world. I hope you wake-up from your blind belief and start to tell your government that it's lied too much, that too many have died for all the wrong reasons....you need to learn to be more cynical.

The casualties are mounting, ON ALL SIDES in this stupid war, and those who watch only the public media broadcasts in the USA, UK, and Australia are being fed a pretty picture of illusionary successes.

At least the Australians are cynical about the garbage they're being fed, but it's about time the people of the USA started asking a lot more questions and thinking instead of allowing yourselves to be so easly manipulated.

Otherwise, you'll wake up one morning and realize that you're not living in a democracy (by any stretch of the imagination), and wonder what country you are living in...and it'll be way too late to free yourselves again....

It's too sad too watch, it's like seeing a best friend going mad.

Iran aint moaning, neither is Turkey who could as two Cruise missles landed there. The reason - they know better. An Iranian prof was quoted on the BBC (third hand info) that if they critised the coalition too much it would have 'negative' effects on Iran after the war.

The Russians have a think tank, but Neil Boortz won't give the website, that is giving the best sitreps of all and The Regime is collapsing and our forces are advancing.

Allied casualties British and American, not deaths, but all catagories, are still under 100. In fact we got some back...

Isn't Japan pretty much bankrupt anyway? Morally Japan must be, because just like in South Korea, it has become very fashionable to spit on the people whom keep the both of those states from becoming tributary vassal states to China and North Korea. Everyone hates America.

That's okay. We want respect and fear walks, talks, and smells like respect, so that's good enough in my book too. What you deep thinkers fail to realize is the defeat or the collapse of the United States leaves some of your neighbors a bit freer to operate. Tell me again, how that is going to be a GOOD thing?

HAHHAHAAAA! YOU NUT!


Anyhow, about that little Lynch girl ...

She fought like a raving banshee, didn't she?
I'm so glad that she's safe and sound now.

Shit, Astro, last week we all but declared war on Syria and Iran.

It's just that the world's press is SO SURE that we are losing, that they really didn't bother to report it and passed it off as empty rhetoric, while spoon-feeding us Iraq's promises of coaltion defeat. Same threat we issued to Afghanistan, then Iraq. I think Iran is finally listening and paying attention. And, they have troubles at home. They just may suddenly decide to divest themselves of the Terrorism business.

Not Syria, though. Their leadership is based on the Arab-Tyrant model and about as in touch with reality as Herr Saddam was. They'll get whacked next.

Me, too, Cherry.

Here's something I was meaning to get to, but got side-tracked:

"I've just watched Jessica Lynch's family...
giving a press conference.

A very, very impressive group of people. Their inner strength and fortitude shone through in everything they said...

Nice people...

ppman"

Nyah nyah nyah, Lovelynotsonice ...

Now tell us about North Korea firing Land to Ship missiles at you.

Good fawking point...

If we withdrew today in compliance with the wishes of that crowd.

Would bankrupt Japan even be able to field a defense? Does South Korea really have a sound enough economy to hold off China (Who, btw, is quietly assimilating Asian Russia...)?

I feel for Jessica Lynch. Glad she was found.

But I've talked to enough Nam vets not to presume she's going to be just hunky dory after the physical wounds heal.

Ever hear of PTSD?

There is also a matter of time. Her time in field and captivity was short. We have learned a lot and she will get the very best of care and from the strength of her family, the support.

It will be interesting to see how women deal with the stresses of war - even though they are not in "direct combat" postitions.

 

[]ooooo(chained)]

See, that's one of the points about women in combat. In war there is no such thing as a non-combat MOS. Anyone in field is a soldier and better be ready to do a soldiers work as Jessie has learned.

Seems they're certainly close enough to the combat.

Thinking in terms of the youth of the forces and the tendency for females to mature faster than males it wouldn't surprize me if the women actually do better than the guys. I'm sure it will be an individual thing, though.

I wonder what preparation for the emotional side of the war the troops get and if those trained for direct combat get a different psych prep than those who are not.
