Heh heh :wink:

Instead of the "money train," the strike team went after the "WMD train" but came up empty. Oh well, too late to stop them now...

Will this Iraq mess ever end? Time to turn off the BBC news and turn on The Shield!

I'm really happy that this post is attracting more responses still, but to be quite honest at this juncture in time i feel it would be prudent to resist the temptation to point out americas flaws particularily as the american army is busy sacrificing thier young men in fallujah,

It seems that however much they are a convieniant butt for jokes, they are suffering heavy losses as they fight, and you can't fault thier courage or resolve :?

so wether right or wrong for oil or freedom, thier boys are dying (as are ours) so lets give the yanks a break and close this thread okay?

So whether right or wrong ... their boys are dying.
Please consider that getting killed alone is no virtue. Even the Einsatzgruppen suffered losses. So I prefer even Bushs flawed logic about what he believes to be right or wrong to the moral indifference that your comment could possibly imply (without any conscious intent on your part, I presume).
