I made many mods mad in LBN, I'm sorry. I've been here for a very long time. I'm sorry once again. I can only hope I'll be forgiven and not banned.

My heart is broken tonight for us all.

2. Me too.
I don't know what you said, but I just had a fucking meltdown myself. I still don't know if it was wrong...how's that for confusion?

I'm furious with those who want to marginalize the gay community, who are blaming them for our loss. I exploded. I only feel marginally guilty and usually I'm the queen of guilt.

You wanted to save Falluja. So do I, but the evil Chimperor is going to kill more and more Iraqis. Fuck him. 100,000 aren't enough????

My heart is broken, too.

3. I understand your frustration
and agony anarchy1999. And I too am very sad. I read Riverbends recent blog entry and it made me cry. It helps me to think that what goes around comes around and these bastards will pay. It doesn't help those in Fallujah but I think we are helpless to stop it.

5. I cry for Fallujah
and I dread an attack, but there is nothing you or I can do about it.

Iraqis have said though, that if Fallujah is attacked, there will be a massive assault like the Americans have never seen. New types of attacks, and new weapons.

I'm not happy about any of it. Or either side attacking. But I have to believe Iraqis know how to take care of themselves. They've had centuries of practice with invaders.

Peace.

6. Fallujah and Ramadi
All initial focus is on Fallujah but, trust me, Ramadi will get hit too (they are trying to destroy the insurgency so it would have to be targetted.) The 5th Marines will hit Ramadi, 1st Marines hit Fallujah. Bet on it.

Poor Bastards. I pray any innocent women and children can escape Fallujah but I think we all know that's not going to be the case...

Like I said, I can't stand four more years of THIS

:puke:

8. Thank you all, my heart is still broken.
The people of this country did not ask for nor did they deserve what we "Americans" have dished out upon them. I'm sorry and I'm going to bed. If I'm banned then so be it.

9. The sad part is...
Edited on Fri Nov-05-04 03:27 AM by huellewig
that the people the military want have all probably left the area by now. Put your gun down and walk out and pick up new gun. Live to fight another day. Unfortunately, the innocent people can't (don't) leave. I guess the same mentality would apply that some Americans use to justify to the patriot act. I haven't done anything wrong why should I be afraid? But the collateral damage from an assault will sure as hell make many more pissed off husbands, sisters, and sons.
