Hey Stu:

I believe no name was given was to give American's pride for all of our soldiers, because each one of those brave one's are our sons and daughters. Unity builds strength, and strength builds pride. God bless them all, and America as well.

[biger-e]

Oh please. Hower4 has been bashing Americans all along and as soon as someone gives him a little taste back he cries foul. the joke wasn't about caring for an elderly person, it was about weekly bathes. and when you say American "friendly fire" you sound like your trying to say someone did it on purpose. Yeah, you know the US soldiers that have fought love to take out friendlys. the "I hope you both die old and alone in a pool of your own waste." is a nice touch from such a sophisticated and advanced Brit (Im assuming Brit but perhaps some other sophisticated progressive Euro.) really got your undies in a bunch. and as much as i disagree with you, i don't hope you die alone in a pool of your own filth. but maybe I am not sophisticated enough for that level of thinking.

[Questionews]

You can amuse us best by taking a writing class. A typo is a random spelling error or an error in sentence structure. It's not it's own language.

[noloyalisti]

You are dead on, I can even ignore the poor typing. This is what happens (bombing of 4 countries for profits) when big corporations run EVERYTHING. They have the media completely and are able to pound out propaganda nightly on Faux News Channel and CNN. They can take out democratically elected governments like Haiti and most recently Honduras. They held the taxpayers hostage as they extorted our money for their banks. Etc., etc., etc.

[hower4]

At least have the courage to say what you think! You agree with the use of torture on terrorist suspects, don't you?

[callingoutthestupidity]

You can call the soldier whatever you want. Kidnapped? Captured? Doesn't matter. This is just another attempt to muddy up the argument. The trash at Gitmo are where they should be. Just have the Taliban drop leaflets there at our prison in Cuba if you like. Or better yet, remember that we are at war and the "militants" should put bear their markings for uniformity, stop hiding in the population, and "civilians" should clear the area and stop supporting them.

[taxchurches]

pardon my two typoes

[chonder2]

Way to go go, both sides. That degenerated into a schoolyard brawl.

[hower4]

Yes, I do speak German. I'll discuss any issue you like, and in either language. You can't even discuss in English. All you can do is throw pathetic juvenile insults. Come on, answer the point..............

[Wayne5319]

And pray tell, just how does kidnapping, beheading, the killing of civilians and terrorism not violate the Geneva conventions? If the Taliban refuses to fight in accordance with the Geneva convention, then what obligation should we have? If you believe we are obligated, then I welcome you to a boxing match, with you in gloves and me with a pair of brass knuckles. Then talk about "civilized" fighting, while I clean your clock.
