I also said I was all for people like you, if your claims are true. Claims you made after my statement, btw. If you cant accept that, well then, its no surprise - you're hardly the most diplomatic person I've ever had the misfortune of exchanging text with. but - you are a typical yank GI - so its ...

btw since when does being a subject of occupation make your perspective MORE important than the occupiers? if anything, if you were halfway reasonable, i'd be suspect of your perspective just based on that fact, like those foaming throngs of dirty chanters in sadr city your mind would be clouded wit...

you called me a fat ass bigot. and from what i've read on the board so far people seem to think of you as someone who just spouts of things to get people pissed. your personal comments are completely out of line. it's a big and touchy topic, you seem to want to make it small and dualistic. you're ju...

I'll say it again, if oppression were the key, Tibetan Buddists, sub-Saharan Africans, and the US intercity poor would be the ultimate terrorists. I'm not trying to say all muslims are terrorists; far from it. The vast, vast majority are not. But to argue that islam is a religion of peace, and then...

the fact is that the vast majority of muslims (at least in the middle east) are largely uneducated and barely, if at all, literate. thats just not true .. is it your guess or do you have some kind of source? my uncle used to work in lybia (as a surgent during the early eighties). he's also been doi...

did you mis the 'hazard a guess' bit ? oh and that's not a cop-out? you're as transparent as a sparrow's fart. i guess it was a hazard to guess huh? not that you put anything other than an insignificant and transient element of intellectual integrity on the line. but since you asked, i was in the u...

yes grenades rolling downhill is always a huge thing to remember.

i never saw enemy fire, but i always assumed that on a personal level survival is either all chance or all providence. either way thinking about anything besides getting to the next cover position as fast as possible is suicidal.

i know there's little more i can contribute to anyone's worldviews as we all seem to be set in our ways adults. but there is something i think is worth considering about this whole islam vs the west thing. people need to consider that 99% of what we see here about the insanity of the muslim world is...

oh EASILY for cinematography, sound design and special effects too, i'd say best original screenplay too...

it was like 1984, but "real". like you could see it all better cause it was all right there in front of us.
