Re: Veterans Day

I understand the desire to feel like we should remember all those who died defending their country. However, American soldiers wouldn't have died if others didn't start the war. And veterans day is for honoring surviving american vets. Memorial day is for american war dead. Now no one says you can't...

Re: The Forgotten Soldier Movie Update

Buck, I never thought of it that way. But unless it was at least a two parter, it would not do TFS justice.

Re: Did you know....?

Pzrmeyer2???? So what you are saying is Germany was justified in attacking Poland, taking over the entire country, setting up concentration camps and murdering anyone who did not agree with German occupation of Poland because Poland wouldn't give up Danzig. The ensuing invasions of Belgium, France a...

Re: The Forgotten Soldier Movie Update

I'm not sure if it's true or not because I found it on wikipedia but "Dambusters" is already involved in controversy. According to wikipedia, the squadron mascot had a politically incorrect name which throughout history has been used to refer to black people. There was much nashing of teet...

Re: The Forgotten Soldier Movie Update

I saw Letters from Iwo Jima before I saw Flag of our Fathers. I liked them both. I think the atrocities committed by the Japanese were not as well known by the general public as what happened in Europe. As much as I hate to admit it, I think there is a bias against showing German soldiers in a posit...

Re: The Forgotten Soldier Movie Update

PK, I googled "Dambusters but all I got was the IMHD web site. It had no cast info. All it said was it was in production and gave the directors name which I forgot. As far as Brad goes, like I said I don't like him so I pay little attention to him. I don't read celeb news even in legit papers o...

Re: chicago Sheriff.....I think a decent person

Maybe it disappeared after states started putting moratoriums on foreclosures. In California there was a moraturium for a time. Now the companies are starting to work with people. Heck all I did was write a letter about my son's medical bills and my wifes sudden unemplyment status. I asked for an ap...

Re: chicago Sheriff.....I think a decent person

All I found was an article from October 2008. It basically outlines his issues with what was happening to people in Chicago. Here it is: By Don Babwin The Associated Press CHICAGO — Diane Limas was already planning a protest as she walked out of the Cook County Sheriff's office. She and other renter...

Re: chicago Sheriff.....I think a decent person

Ok, I agree.. Let me correct one small thought. I have never believed nor would I ever hold it against all Germans for what a few did. I do and always will disagree that those who didn't directly participate in torture etc. were not guilty. On that issue I will not give in for the reasons earlier st...

Re: chicago Sheriff.....I think a decent person

John I think you misunderstood my post. I have no sympathy for the 82 year old former dog handler. Even if you were just a perimeter guard or a dog handler, you knew what was going on in the camps. If you stopped the inmates from leaving or escaping than you were complicit in their illegal imprisonm...

Re: The Forgotten Soldier Movie Update

Ok I remember Her Harrer(ok I googled him) and "7 years in Tibet" but why was there a scandal and why does the Bradster need a lawyer. I personally think he is a pompus arrogant windbag. I think he plays heroic types on screen because he is a poncy bastard in real life.
