Fallujah is going to be wiped off the face of the planet |
|
I saw a news broadcast of a wake for the eight Marines that were killed the other day and it was not good. They were talking about their fallen brethren mostly then this one jarhead gets up there and says that they are going to burn Fallujah to the ground in revenge for what happened because that is what their dead comrades would want. I could not believe it. The talking head that did the lead in to the video clip even used the word revenge talking about the clip. No outrage, they all just seemed like this was normal and that revenge was justified. I've said it once but here it is again. I will not support the troops anymore. NO MORE FUCKING WAR!!!

2. They get what they deserve for supporting W. |
|
And I like the suggestion someone made yesterday to carry recruiter business cards on you and when you meet a Bush supporter, hand them a card and tell them they need to go support their leader, support their troops by volunteering themselves or their children.
Not MY President. Not MY War. Screw them.

.....that the Waffen SS died out after Germany lost.
USMC Looking For a Few Good Men, To Kill Women and Children. (Because fighting a real military would be Hard Work)
Now I'd like to see that on a recruiting poster!!!!
Edit: This is not directed at those former Marines who are here, just those over in Iraq that follow orders without question. If they do it over there, they will do it over here as well.

Fallujah get annihilated. More Iraqii's join the insurgency (Scott Ritter predicted: invade Iraq and you will have 23 million insurgents). Najaf protesters are gunned down. Muslim's all over the world are outraged. More countries begin to believe they need to band together to resist control by an imperialistic, aggressive US. The Economic Union makes a statement expressing opposition to the carnage and occupation. The UN considers sanctions against the US. The US leaves the UN. More countries pull out of the Iraq coalition. Iran gets very nervous and continues to develop weapons, since many of their neighbors have nuclear weapons and since they believe they are next to be occupied. Israel preventively strikes Iran . The people of Saudi Arabia rebel against their leaders who are buddies with the US and join an effort with Iran against Israel. Saudi Arabia stops exporting oil to US. US closes embassies in Europe, middle east, and throughout muslim indonesia. US is fighting in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Syria and is worried about Idonesia, China, N. Korea, and the European Economic Union.
We are alone.
On the other hand, maybe we turn Fallujah and its people into rubble and the rest of Iraq will see that we really are liberators.

9. "But if the cause be not good, |
|
the king himself hath a heavy reckoning to make, when all those legs and arms and heads, chopped off in a battle, shall join together at the latter day and cry all `We died at such a place;' some swearing, some crying for a surgeon, some upon their wives left poor behind them, some upon their children rawly left. . . . Now if these men do not die well, it will be a black matter for the king that led them to it..."

15. I care about Fallujah and Iraq |
|
We have to care. No matter what. There are innocent Iraqi's that are being killed and will continue to be killed. Most of you know about the recent report that 100,000 innocent Iraqi's have been killed since the start of the invasion. America is responsible for these deaths.
This Iraq war is wrong and bu$h is only going to create thousands more terrorists. We are wrong not to fight to stop our war machine. Make sure you get involved in the anti-war movement, it is becoming active once again, now that the election is over.
We have to keep fighting the media, and the public perception that we can win this war.

We need to generate some heat. Look, we're all reponsible for this war if we don't do something about it. I call for civil disobediance. Let's get out there and demonstrate against this assministration.
We need passion . Passion generates heat. We need to make some headlines in the newspapers. The blood of innocent Iraqis are on hands. It's our country, not this miserable assministration. Strike now while we're all hot under the collar. Don't wait till we all cool off.

this is what happens when people kill each other. It just gets worse and worse until people wake up and realize they're on a dead end road to hell.

I expect that the insurgents will bring the war to our shores some time in the near future. At least if they do we can get rid of one of the rights fantasies.

27. The US is a colonial power in a country in revolt |
|
The US hasn't had much experience with this. These words are fool hearty bluster. The rebellion will probably continue to frustrate the occupiers until they they wear them down. It is possible that chimp has mobilized Jihadis from the entire region. If this is the case The US military and their Iraqi born "security force" will never have the luxury of any form of security and will have to remain in fortified battlements and isolated forts forever.

You are correct. Our attempts at colonizing other nations have failed horribly in the past and usually left those countries in turmoil (Korea, Vietnam, Iraq) Usually, our militaristic foreign policy involves going into very small nations that are so fractured, that they can not put up a resistance, install our dictator and then vacate(Panama, Grenada, Dominican Republic, etc.) when we try to tackle mid-sized countries they tend to put up a resistance.

28. And we have no opposition party here in the US....no one to speak up. |
|
It breaks my heart. Not a single Democrat is able to speak up because it would not be politically correct.
Even though they admit the president lied about Iraq, they are afraid to speak up in case they hurt their careers.
So they die there because we are politically correct here.
:cry:

29. Welcome to Iraqnam ... |
|
Now that the election is over, the real dying and slaughter will begin!!!
Our boys will start dying in 100s instead of tens. Bush will escalate the war, then they'll start dying in THOUSANDS instead of 100s!!!
I say it's a matter of months before Bush allows another terrorist attack to slip through in order to justify a general draft in a "Fortress America" style mentality!!!!

Like among the lines of Tet in 1968.
Bush may have to answer for this mess much sooner than we all thought. Maybe now eyes will open.

34. Does it matter? Bush will lose Iraq. Bank on it. |
|
Bush is gonna lose his war. And he may also lose Saudi Arabia. Serves the motherfucker right.
And this time, Bush and the 'Pukes have no one to blame but themselves. They have NO allies out there. Not even Israel has indicated they will help. Everyone else is staying out - I just heard that Doctors Without Borders is closing shop in Iraq.
Sit tight and enjoy the show. Bush is gonna fall HARD.
