All that is really happening is staunch geurilla resistance. Then the US will "win the war" and hand their stinky mess to the UN to "solve" along with peacekeepers from canada and other nations. Yes, you need medical care. |

I am not talking for myself but this seems to be the general opinion. That’s just the way it is and you guys keep on giving us reasons to dislike you...best change your attitude like al travellers do when they go abroad... Gee, wish I'd known that last week when having many conversations with a couple from Amsterdam who had rented an RV and were touring the U.S. I may not have been as hospitiable, although "origins" hardly entered our discussions. They were more interested in learning about interesting destinations and relaying their (very good) experiences to-date. They are having a "trip of their lifetime." MTV And this just on the wire services. "Ugly Dutch?" Jun 3, 11:01 am ET AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - A planned nudist bicycle tour in the Netherland's so called bible-belt has upset local churchmen who are holding their own youth charity bike ride the same day. They have tried in vain to get local authorities to ban the nudists to stop them clashing with the youth chapter of the Reformed Church when they both take to the road in the eastern town of Apeldoorn on June 12. The nudist tour is part of the World Naked Bike Ride which also takes place in London, Chicago, Los Angeles, Montreal, Toronto and Pforzheim in Germany. The organizer of the church bike tour told the ANP news agency Thursday he had tried to coordinate the routes with the nudist tour to avoid any embarrassing meeting but had obtained no reply. He is now asking the 300 or so cyclists on his youth tour to call the police if they see any nudists. "Nudity in public is provocative and illegal," he said. |

d these united States have not been at war since 1945. Nice exercise in semantics. The US did not lose a war in Vietnam because they have decided that technically it was not a war, presumably? The United States did not lose the Vietnam militarily. They lost it politically. According to most Americans, you didn't lose the War of 1812 either. |

After failing to achieve a military victory and losing 60,000 troops and many times that coming home wounded, they lost interest and wanted out. |

Having screwedd everything up royally, they would like to hand it over to the UN to clean up the mess... and pay the bills. Yes, you need medical care. |

So is a dose of gonorrhea especially if you have to take a **** but that doesn't mean it's a good thing. Much of the comments in this thread are based on experiential evidence, thus I assume you have experienced this sensation as you describe it. I really don't know, nor want to know that sensation. Not true confession time on my part, BUT I sincerely hope you were/are cured of the aforementioned gonorrhea if you did indeed have it. |

Then the US will "win the war" and hand their stinky mess to the UN to "solve" along with peacekeepers from canada and other nations. So you're suggesting instead the US maintain control in Iraq? How do you think the Iraqi government is going greet your suggestion? The US won't "win" and will hand over the stinking mess they started (with their invasion) for someone else to deal with while at the same time extolling their mattra "WE won the war!! WE won the war!! What revisionistic bull****. Your superpower does not have the ability to create peace, just to "win" by killing all opposition and flattening the country. Kinda like the German Panzer division did when they opened up on the Polish Calvary at the beginning of WW II. Even though they overran Poland they had nothing but trouble for the rest of the "war". Then the Germans were defeated. The US won't win the peace offensive because they do NOT have the capability. If they did have that capability why do they pass off the destroyed countryside to someone else AND ask them to get involved in the peace process. |
