…and don’t forget the other Holocaust in Cambodia that followed our departure. War is terrible but people need to have the will to fight whenit’s necessary.
we shall see, i have no doubt he would jump at that opportunity though, that way he escapes blame if your fear of riot and civil unrest insue…
If you want to speak to the oil barons, better start learning French.
Does your brother feel the same way as you? Just curious.we shall see, i have no doubt he would jump at that opportunity though, that way he escapes blame if your fear of riot and civil unrest insue…
i also have no doubt we will probably be there for years, but not as watch dogs however, but as oil barons…
Oil is the whole reason we are there, IMO…
The source for that bogus statistic is a Lancet article that has already been thoroughly debunked, see below:
if you speak of the brother that is currently in the Abu Gharib Prison(not sure i spelled that right) working as a contrator, believe it or not, he does… now, he and I differ on other subjects, but he too feels we have no business in Iraq…
i have not read your source, but Time Magazine, is the last place i saw the figure, and Meet the Press with Tim Russert is where I heard the number when he was interviewing a couple of former Chief’s of staff…
Both Time and Russert were quoting the number based on the now discredited Lancent article. That is the only original source I know of for that number. It is bogus, please don’t use it anymore.
Neither does your understanding of English grammar. I think the context of the sentence makes it clear that I was not quoting “Saddam’s people”. The Native Americans population was largely decimated by smallpox, not by European or American weaponry. Indeed contemporary reports by settlers moving west indicated that some had thought that the land had been already cleared of Natives before they arrived. You get the tsk, tsk for not reading my source before responding.:tsktsk:i have not read your source, but Time Magazine, is the last place i saw the figure, and Meet the Press with Tim Russert is where I heard the number when he was interviewing a couple of former Chief’s of staff…
i find it interesting you would quote "Saddam’s" people as a source
How many thousands of native americans did we genocide…
Sorry INRI… doesn’t wash…:tsktsk:
Your post is analogous to a story Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt used to tell - when asked what were her most vivid memories of the War - with all her traveling, all she’d done and seen, she told the story of going through the President’s mail which was volumninous in those days (no email) and reading one where they wished her sons ill in the war. She said it simply was one of the cruelest things she’d ever had done to her. Some things never change I guess. I sincerely hope you never hold a position of responsibility and have to risk the welfre of others.
That’s a subject you need to take up with the UN - they know a lot about that subject but they aren’t talking. Perhpas with your “way with words” you can send a letter and get some action.
