Where do you come up with this crap???  Some netherworld reality that the rest of us ignorant sheep aren't privy to.  Where is a link to how many non-combatants have been killed by US or Northern Alliance forces in this action.  I am asking you for a link so that I might see these figures for yourself.

Somewhere in one of your posts, it seems that I recall that you said you have fought for your country in our military.  If I remember that correctly, would you please say when and where.

Do you actually [b]believe[/b] that the Saudis or Kuwaitis will let us operate from airbases on their soil when we unilaterally attack either Iran or Iraq (or both)?

I will admit that Turkey is more likely to allow us to use their airbases during a war against Iran and/or Iraq, but I wouldn't go so far as to say they [b]will[/b] let us - I doubt they want the entire rest of the Muslim world angry at them and starting suicide bombing targets in Turkey.

You said right LarryG. A lot of times U.S. Army, Navy and AIr FOrce shoot on their own soldiers or allied soldiers, sometimes for dozen of minutes, but this is always forgotten.
Ask to Vietnam Veterans or historians. Happened also during II W.W. When it's Israel the act is "deliberate and evil". Killing civilians in Afghanistan by US. Army during retaliation for the infamous terror act of the WTC is a "collateral damage". Killing civilians in Palestine is "deliberate and evil" if done by IDF as retaliation for terror attacks by Palestinians murderer. Putting in jail foreigner "suspects" without trial and without a lawyer is ok in USA "to favour an easier acton against terrorism", but to do the same in Israel is "III Reich behaviour". Double standards.
I say that this people is very one sided and narrow minded.


Never mind that Israel has gun laws that most of wish we had here.  I've seen reports where Israeli's pick up soldiers and civilians carrying M16's and no one gets freaked out.  I wish we had that attitude here.

Sorry to delude you Larry. The civilians that you saw with M16 are under army jurisdiction and M16 cannot be privately owned in Israel.

You guys take the Palestinian trolls WAY too seriously.

They are either
1) Just frustrated pimply faced 12 year olds looking for attention (and something new to strap to their airsoft

2) Maladjusted 20 somethings looking to take their mind off of STILL living with their parents


3) Non hacking adults that have a fetish for people that blow themselves up (Maybe someday they will grow a pair and we wont have to listen to their drivel anymore)

4) Representatives of an ethnic segment that our (Israel and the US) armed forces are kicking the shit out of. ( In which case they will soon get to find out about that main gun and blast effects at point blank range)


Either way debating is a total waste of time. Ridicule them, laugh at the moronic response, move on.

Paolo, I know English isn't your native tongue.  So maybe you misunderstood my statement. I was talking about bases in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.

Israel [b]wanted[/b] to attack Iraq during desert storm.  Knowing this would destroy the coalition, the US did some arm twisting to keep Israel out of it (which they did).

We also stationed Patriot missiles in Israel to protect them from Scuds.

There will be a similar arrangement to keep Israel out of the fray this time too.

I never claimed that you used "unilaterally attack" or that I didn't. [b]When[/b] we attack one of these countries (Iraq because it's Iraq, Iran because it's one member of the "axis of evil") we'll need bases nearby, and Saudi Arabia and Kuwait won't let us use theirs? Why not? Because they're not in danger this time. Both nations are only our friends when they need something from us. This time they'll see it as a US attack on fellow Muslims and will most likely refuse to get involved on our side. The entire Muslim/Arab world will be against us when we attack, and few if any western nations will back us. Now, even if the Saudis or Kuwaitis [b]do[/b] let us operate from their bases, I think that the nation we attack will call for a [i]jihad[/i] and that other Arab/Muslim nations will attack us in the host countries. Israel is our best bet to keep these guys from coming in behind us, so to speak.

No bets will be called off due to the Israelis "meddling" in the action, because we'll be [b]alone[/b] this time and won't have to keep the Israelis out of the fight to preserve the coalition.

However, if you scroll the page, looking in the left hand column, you may see some pretty good sources. Check 'em out..... What would I have done about 9/11?? You said inaction caused it. A predictable outcome wouldn't you say? Maybe on purpose? For starters, if I was really serious, I would have CLOSED our borders. TIGHT! Then I would have gone after Saudi Arabia & Pakistan. BIG TIME! You see, the goat herds in Afghanistan;
1) Didn't do it
2) Ain't goin nowhere
The money boys and govt of Saudi is who we should nail. The Pakistani ISI put them in business. BTW, do you remember the "Tonkin Gulf Incident"?

As often as I diagree with the Hunster, it looks like you've misread him here.  Was his point not about how some call the US terrorists because of some civilians being killed?

So what makes you think he would categorize it as "collateral damage?"

"collateral damage" is an unfortunate term that gained popularity in Desert Storm.  Far from serving the purpose of absolving us for responsibility for mistargeting or strays, it made the Pentagon seem like callous spin doctors hoping to make it go away by dehumanizing the victims.  

Better to express regrets at the accident or sorrow that they were being used as shields by the agressors.

Anyone ever hear about the Hebron riots? (1930s) Mind you, this is long before the state of Israel ever existed. Basically groups of Arabs wanted the land of Jewish families that had lived there for hundreds of years.

They (the arabs) murdered hundreds (if not thousands) of Jews by raiding their homes and hacking them to death with machetes.


The Jews are the only people on the face of the earth that would put up with it as long as they have. When they snap, it’s going to be a very LOUD snap indeed.

Like it or not, that’s exactly what the Arabs position is regarding Israel and the US. You would have me believe that’s because of the Jews. I would tell you it’s because we fail to bow to an arbitrary point in the sky three times a day (and know how to use toilet paper).


Sanction my victimization? – FUCK NO
Sanction poisoning all twelve fresh water sources in Saudi (during the Haj) and watching them flop around like dead fish? – OH heck yea.

No. The Mufti of jerusalem inciting Muslim to wipe out Jews of Palestine. Why not only pursue settlements in Rehovot, Rishon le Zion and other new ones? The community in Hevron wa one of the few ALWAYS present in Palestine. ANd was almost completely exterminated.

The problem is, dude, that if it's right to give back houses to indigenous populations, maybe you have to start to give back your house to apaches, comances, shoshonis and so on... they lived in America long time ago. If not, so why the f*ck the Israelis (that anyway have 2000 years old cultural links to this land) should do it? Because you don't like them?

Yes, I agree. But hope springs eternal

Yes, indeed, the truth is often said in jest, as the Bard reminded us.

Fortunately, our country is not as Facist as would be required for Kar98's hopes to be realized.

At least not [u]yet[/u]!

But I'd imagine that for Kar98 'hope springs eternal' for that, as well!

Well, well, Paolo, my friend, do you not see a clear pattern here?

Friends of the Nazis? Friends of Al Qaeda? Friends of the Neo-Nazis?

The Palestinian people have never been able to pick out either (1) the good guys, or (2) the winners in history!

They are the quinessential idiots of world history:

They are doomed never to forget - they are doomed never to learn.

And they reproduce at alarming rates!

USN 1969-1973.  I looked at the link.  Christ, man, look at the sources, all with an anti-US agenda.  As for the goatherder question, why didn't these people overthrow the Taliban instead of standing by idly while thousands of their countrymen are executed by them.  If some extremeist group took over the US, would we do that?  I think not.  I don't believe the figures quoted on that page.  It's all progaganda by those that hate the US.

I'll ask you one question.  What would you have us do in response to Sept 11?  Inaction by this country emboldened people like Bin Laden to become more violent in their actions against the US.

Oh, and Larry, some extremist group HAS taken over the US, they are called the Council on Foreign Relations, their members are an offshoot of the british "Roundtable" group (funded by Cecil Rhodes, and now his foundation), and they hold almost every high political, bureaucratic, and corporate position in our country. Their Goal? World Socialist Government!

Anyone ever hear about the Hebron riots? (1930s) Mind you, this is long before the state of Israel ever existed. Basically groups of Arabs wanted the land of Jewish families that had lived there for hundreds of years.
They (the arabs) murdered hundreds (if not thousands) of Jews by raiding their homes and hacking them to death with machetes.

Instant_Karma, you are thinking of the "1936 Uprising" and you've got your "facts" all mucked up (as usual)!

Background:  The Zionists had been settling in Palestine and displacing more and more Arab peasants and Bedouins since the '20s.  By 1935 the Zionists owned 1/3 of the arable land, controlled 872 of the total of 1,212 industrial firms and were awarded 90% of the economic infrastructure (road projects, Dead Sea minerals, ports, etc.).  This was done with the approval of the British government, which was heavily influenced by Zionist capital.

The British had kept the Zionist immigration and the Palestinian displacement "under control" (meaning to levels where the Palestinians wouldn't revolt).  But events in Europe (in Poland and Germany) lead to a massive increase in Zionist immigration in 1935-1936 (with subsequent Palestinian "displacement"). The Palestinians realised that their loss of land and repression was going to continue and get even worse.

Your statement about "Arabs wanting the land of jewish families who had been there for hundreds of years", is pure bunk!  In fact, quite the opposite is true.  The massive Zionist immigration was displacing Palestinian FAMILIES who had lived on the land for hundreds of years.

The British reaction to the 1936 Uprising was immediate and harsh.  Martial law was declared and anyone suspected of organizing or sympathizing with the general strike or other resistance, were detained and their houses blown up.  Does that tactic sound familiar?

After WWII, the Zionists pulled out all the stops and turned on the British. They took what they wanted by force of arms.

And the feud has continued to this day!

DaMan, you forgot to mention the "Balfour Declaration", which was a result of a deal cut between the great european banking houses (read Jewish), and the british govt. Deal was, if brits would issue a policy statement supporting a jewish homeland, the bankers would stop supporting the German war machine during ww1....

OH, I FEEL SOOOOOO SILLY! I always thought WWII ended in 1945 and Resolution 181 of the United Nations wasn't passed until November 1947!

Now what could have happened in the meantime?

Irgun and Stern gangs doing nasty stuff at that time?  Bombing of the King David Hotel...... wasn't that 1946??!!!  Whoah! No force of arms there! [:P]  

Yes, Eric!  Let's be perfectly accurate! [:P]

1) "Illegal" immigration was something that was tolerated by the British up to the beginning of WWII. In the "White Book" issued by the Mandate authoriy the number of LEGAL permit, in the eve of the Holocaust, was reduced and not the contrary.

2) The jews were too much busy to be slaughtered to have any chance to immigrate, legally or illegally, to "Palestine"...

Can you explain me one thing?

In 1947, in the plan to divide Palestine into two states, one Jewish and another one Arab, stated that Jerusalem wouldn't be jewish, but arabian and in Jerusalem Israel could keep only some jewish [i]enclaves[/i] (Mount Scopus and few others). The virtual govt. of Israel accepted, because they relized that starting to have a finally a home would be the best thing for the jewish people.They accepted, far before 1947, a division plan of the British that planned an even smaller Israel.

Arafat, in the Camp David negotiation, with his refusal (and his cowardice to afford his own extremists, things that is facing now anyway) didn't show the same concern to his people.

So, why on one side there is a concern for the condition of their own people and on the other no?

And if Arafat has no concern for Palestinians, why Israel should have?

Thanks for your kind answer, dude...
