Originally posted by John Number of people killed by Saddam: 2,000,000
Of 25 million killed in war, Saddam's victims account for: 8%
Think the post says 25 million killed in war. The 2 million victims of Saddam's tyranny weren't likely to be included in it. It wasn't a traditional war, ie ...
Originally posted by 64bit I agree in spirit with your second point about what this war is about. I wouldn't have used "unintended" but you are correct. I think Saddam Hussein or who ever is in power now in Iraq has the most say over who has died and how many must still die.

Before this war started, all we heard France do was piss and moan. The protested any use of force against Iraq. They protested the American military buildup in the Gulf region. They ...
People like you are the reason that so many people in this world live in an oppressed, slave like existence. What is humane about standing in your living room in your peacefull little country and trying to convince others that a insane dictator (who ...
Youve got to understand this. Like Bouncer so aplty put, the U.S. itself has decides to get involved in the operations it does, not the U.N. It makes its decisions with independance.
As well, if you were aware of all the good work the U.N does, (ie. peacekeeping, food programs, development ...
because we have a policy of encouraging, spreading, and supporting democracy everywhere.
It may be Bush's mantra, but nothing could be further from the truth. As Downhill rightly mentions, the U.S. dealings with countries such as Saudi Arabia, Columbia, Chile, Nicaragua, Venezula, Panama, etc ...

I've studied the subject quite in depth, (university papers et al.), and American Intelligence was under the suspicion that it would only be a matter of days before Japan would surrender. As someone has pointed out earlier, the only holdback was the ...
Originally posted by UOD haha....the statistics are per capita which is EXACTLY my point...for only having 30 million people...why are the stats so high per hundred thousand?

The figures are quoted in number of population per 100000 to use as a bench in ...

Why you didnt tell them who sent it to ya, i dont know. I left my nick at the bottom of the page. Btw, it wasnt your sig which bothered me (though i strongly disagree with its suggestions), but your rant about how hardcore and deserving you are, when it had NOTHING to do with the subject at hand ...
Originally posted by uod2001 Perspective, I along with many others here have failed to see your point. I think that maybe, you don't really have a point. I think you may have an agenda and I think I have heard it all before.
I've said this many many times to newcomers and members of the old boys ...
Like the others said post your ideas in your own thread. You waged war with the wrong crowd. You call me an idiot but you started it all with a first post using an alternate identity...coward.
Maybe i shoulda started my own threat...but I knew this one would illicit a response. And jesus, ask ...
Originally posted by GoldenSpoon American Pride is something your born with black, white or whatever You don't automatically have it once you immigrate you a**. It's something that you have to earn as a immigrant. Something you have yet to prove here on the forum.
Originally posted by GoldenSpoon I went in the military because it was a way out of the streets. To better my life....education...college funding. I learned RESPECT, HONOR (Honour in Canada) and a true connection to my country. Something you have no idea about. I didn't go into the military to ...
don't give a rats *** if your brother is in the Candian Reserves. I live up here remember? And your military is hardware etc is well over 35 years old and depended upon the US military might. Even was said by the PM himself.
Damn right our stuff is ****. No kidding. Again, you dont respond, you ...
My bro is in the CND. reserves. The MAJORITY of soldier are in it, (this is irrespective of who they serve for) because of: (a) The action, playing with big guns, blowing things up, etc.\ (b) Commaraderie (?) (c) Paying job, other fringe benefits.
sounds like your girlfriend is just there for the money, and your second paragraph makes you sound drunk, isnt it funny that no one asked you to post in this thread yet you still registered and posted over 30 times just to piss people off

Im not throwing differences around..Im hoping to point out our incredible similarities..we are all people. But a lot has been said about America being unique, and it is not. No one has proven otherwise. And Brembo, again, you should walk away ...
Its easy to pick out the problems, its much harder to try to fix them. I gotta edal with the problems that affect(effect?) my life before I can worry about other people problems. So, my lack of "worldly" ways works in my favor. I can concentrate on what ails me. No, thats not selfish. Its realistic ...
