We are now at war! I really hope the conscripts give up without a fight! I really feel for these guys due to the fact they have the Royal Marine Commandos, Royal Paracute Regiment and the 101st Airbourne attacking them. They don't stand a fecking chance! They are under equipped under trained and under dedicated soldiers. They are jus guys like me fighting a war they don't understand why is happening. I really hope they surrender.

Man this is so wrong!

    I hope everything goes well. The only major concern is Saddam ordering WMD attacks against highly populated areas.

    President Bush just made a speech about the war, and PM Blair will be making a speech in 10 mins. From CNN-American cruise missiles and F-117's attacked a location believed to be used (maybe even occupied) by Saddam and his top officials.

    All i ask, is that regardless of your position on the war (and their are many of them), think of the families involved in this war and that some people may have more emotional value in these situations than you do. Keep in mind that it might be thier father, mother, brother, or sister or in Iraq right now, fighting this threat. If somethine happens or you see a news update about the US inside the war, Keep you F*ck'n mouth shut. Because you dunno who might be reading or hearing what you say.

    Someone could have been wounded or ever worse, killed, that was very close to them. On these updates, don't use it as a soap box for your opinion, use a little ****'n respect for those who are fighting to keep peace in the world.

    Just a little respect is all i ask.

    War is the most idiodic way to solve a problem as trivial as this.

    Hopefully that asteroid will come flying by and knock some sense into the species *shakes head*

    While I agree with your plea for respect, I'd like to point out that following this argumentation, one may not be jubilant about American <i>victories</i>, either - the other side is just as convinced of fighting for the good cause, after all.

    From CNN: More Iraqi soldiers have crossed the border and surrendered. Also the 11th and 51st divisions are on the verge of defection.

    To make peace, you must prepare for war...

    The 1st Marine Expeditionary Force has just crossed the DMZ into Iraq. Iraqi oilfields have been set ablaze. Fighting has broken out at the Kuwaiti border. And Turkey has allowed coalition forces to use its airspace.

    If they keep demonstrating fiercely in Turkey this won't last for long ! (hopefully in France too)
    Carrying supplies by train is unthinkable in Turkey for now. Railroad workers managed to halt the traffic to Iraq.

    **sigh**


    I suppose we should just let the UN take another 12 years to do sod all about the situation. The UN has failed once again to do it's job just like in Kosovo.

    Anybody think that those 16 that died in a helicopet might have been something like black ops or something and its a cover up?

    I find it strange that the supposedly civilised nations of today cant seem to solve anything by proper diplomatic means, instead, those supposedly civilised nations have to resort dropping chemical compounds that violently react on each other to solve their differences.

    Bombing one nation just becuase of their leader is not the way to go about this. If the US wants saddam out, then simply get an assasin to do it. Minimum risk, minimum cost, minimum lives lost. It seems that the US government just wishes to flex it's military might once more...

    I stand by my comments. I really do hope that asteroid comes flying by soon...

    Or the monolith will wake up, whichever comes first...

    well, see the us wants to do it with "minimum casualties", an assasin would result in many casualties because **bitching**

    Well for diplomacy it takes two sides actively trying to reach a compromise, not just one side talking to the wall. Assassination of Saddam would just create a power vaccum which might be filled by someone worse then him, or it might have brought a good leader to power. Assassinations for political change are useless unless the revolutionaries have a force to support them.

    Assanation is almost impossible Saddam Hussien has the most ruthless security (pauses to think of somebody to compare it to but cant) ever. He has mock revolutions just to see who would be on the revolutionary side.

    Not to mention his sons are just as nasty if not worse so taking him out will only lead to thier take over.
