"About wars. How about if nationnal armies were outlawed? Only have an International Law Enforcement forces that would be deployed only when necessary, that is when a country shows any sign of enroling a local militia. I'm sure that would keep most countries quiet and peaceful." Isn't that what Hitler wanted to do? And obviously the UN isn't effective in being any type of deterant to the likes of Saddam Hussain and Bin Laden and his rag tag crew... It's ok though... Fr
I think a more accurate way of looking at it is that there are 50 States (countries) unified under a central entity (America)... It's the premise of what they are working off of in the development of the EU.. And can it be done, yes, it sure can... You don't see people from Texas wanting to start a war with people in Arizona... <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN=
I've liven in Pakistan, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Brussels, France and England. There goes your first theory out the window. We're not in this just to protect ourselves. Who was there to protect the Kurds when Saddam used mustard gas on them? We are doing this to protect innocent people from the drastic outlashings of an insane tyrant. A person who is known to have a desire to kill many amounts of people and who has done so in the past. It does not matter if they are American, or British,
and I say again..... "FOR THOSE WHO HAVE FOUGHT FOR IT, FREEDOM HAS A TASTE THE PROTECTED WILL NEVER KNOW YOU CAN DISGRACE MY LEADERS YOU CAN SPIT ON ME YOU CAN THINK WHAT YOU WANT YOU CAN SAY WHAT YOU WANT YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU WANT BECAUSE I AM THERE TO PROTECT YOUR RIGHTS I DIE SO YOU DO NOT HAVE TO I CHOOSE TO GIVE MY LIFE UP FOR THIS COUNTRY I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU DO WITH IT BUT I MAKE IT SO YOU HAVE A CHOICE TO DO WHATEVER YOU WANT" <A HREF="https://www.wincustomize.com/i
Firstly, it's "Knights in shining armor" Secondly, I used mother and wife, bacause Saddam is not accused of raping a man... Thirdly, I can bring up any issue I want, it's my constitutional right to do so. Fourthly, didn't realize it was such a sore topic for you, you may want to seek treatment for that. Perhaps read a book to better understand your devastating psychological taumas. Fifthly, "You think putting people through war is any better than putting women
I always felt a bit more pride in raising the flag than lowering it... When I was on Embassy duty, it was great to have foreign nationals stop and watch when we'd have colors... A lot of people would always comment afterwards how impressed our professionalism and patriotims showed as we honored our flag... Then they would joke about how pathetically their country handles their standards... <BR
Regardless, as I said, the ignorance is bliss... She prob didn't take the time to read it, but saw it was in caps and decided to make some great gesture and reprimand me. Sheesh... isn't it great when people can't see the forest for the trees?
Green Armani, A lot of times I bite my tongue when people ask me what my travels and experiences were like in the military. I take on a silence and most of the time just mutter, "I'd rather not talk about it". It's similar to Vietnam Vets not talking about their experiences. Most of the time I'll get strange looks from people when I say I don't want to talk about it, but the simple reason that I DON'T talk about it is that they can not comprehend it. It is not right to expect people to

If I recall correctly, Stardock (Wincustomize) has dealt with both MS and Apple with regards to this issue in the past and it seems that they've "resolved" their differences in a suitable manner to appease all parties. I'd be comfortable in saying that whatever appears on Wincusto or Stardock's sites, meets up with mutually agreed upon criteria. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/images/smiles/sb.gif" border=0 ALIGN="
