Originally posted by J'Mal:tell that to the innocent Iraqis. they are probably pretty terrified right now.
Originally posted by sonickteam2:Don't confuse the subject. A lot of things bother me about the war in iraq.
but doesnt it bother you that the US didnt REALLY attack Iraq because of 9/11??
But that does not mean that the war in iraq is in any way similar to terrorism.
maybe terrorism isnt really cut and dry.
(just a thought, i never said the US were terrorists, nor do i really care if they are!)
Good to see the Russian Army keeping busy:
MOSCOW, Russia – Russian troops have retrieved 10 tons of beer trapped
under Siberian ice, the Itar-Tass news agency has reported.
The truck carrying the beer sank when trying to cross the frozen Irtysh
river, near the Siberian city of Omsk, around 2,200 km (1,400 miles)
from Moscow.
The driver and his partner managed to escape, leaving the beer-laden
truck.
The rescue team of six divers, 10 workers and a modified T-72 tank from
the Emergencies Ministry managed to save the load after a week-long
operation.
They pulled the truck to an ice hole, opened the doors, and managed to
pull out the kegs and bottles of beer.
But as they were ready to retrieve the truck, the rope tore, leaving
the truck on the bottom of the river, deputy head of the Cherlak
district administration Vasily Yatkovsky told Tass.
The Rosar brewery in Omsk, part of the Interbrew Belgian group, says it
is ready to take the beer back.
With temperatures around minus 27 degrees Celsius (minus 17 degrees
Fahrenheit) in the area, the brewery told Tass the beer was still in
good condition.
Tass quoted the brewery as saying it will sell the beer as a rarity,
but with a discount.

BTW, does anyone watch Whoopi? I love the little digs they always get in at Bush, his administration and right wing nutjobs in general.
It was a good one last night when the Iranian ("HE'S NOT AN ARAB") was wishing everyone happy "orange" day.

Originally posted by sonickteam2:for some reason i was watching mtv, and one of their little news things came on. . and they have a "reporter" in iraq checking in on the entertainment scene there. well, this one report enquired about american movies and whatnot. turns out that there's quite a business for pirated movies. . .a couple of guys buy original vhs or dvd movies, copy them a couple of times, and then open a store where they either sell or rent those movies. they also open "arcades" and charge people to play on their playstation and whatnot.
tell that to the innocent Iraqis. they are probably pretty terrified right now.
they didn't seem all that terrified. . .now, if you mentioned hilary rosen, then that might have gotten them.

Originally posted by sonickteam2:A lot has been made of this Niger thing. Perhaps that was an overstatement. Perhaps it was an outright falsehood. It's such a small part of the larger case that it is inconsequential. The case for Iraq possessing a WMD program was built on much more than that single item.
but doesnt it bother you that the US didnt REALLY attack Iraq because of 9/11??
It may turn out that the intelligence was all wrong.
Hey, I give the Reps cred on that – they're relentless and the Dems are too disorganized to do any good with the Administration's weaknesses.

Why do politicians, of any party, insist on wearing ill-fitting suits and really bad haircuts?
because they're straight American males and that's the norm for straight American males…complete disregard for fashion
