If Turkey invades Iraq, what happens

[mviale]

I have no idea Chicos, care to explain Mviale. It seems that in Iraq, some things weren't figured out in the '30's since we're there now trying to figure out another problem...or is it the same one?

Seems to me that we had a balance of power until we broke it.

[muwarrior87]

If by balance of power you mean pre 9-11 then ok, but I think they would have broken it and if a country is harboring the people that will blow up or fly a plane into a building or hijack a subway or set off a car bomb in a populated area, then that country should really be put in a position where it can't harbor these types of people. So in a sense, they broke the balance of power.

[mviale]

Are you saying Iraq was a safehaven for Al queda?  Then you have been fooled by the propaganda machine and not sure if this discussion will go anywhere.

[Murffieus]

no propaganda machine-----Iraq was a "safe haven" for any sunni jihadists that wanted refuge (Saddam himself was one)---Saddam harbored Aswar Islam an offshoot of Al Quida which camped out in northern Iraq and also harbored Zawqari pre invasion while he (Saddam) was ripping off the UN and using some of that money to pay the families of palestinian suicide bombers----and only God knows who else he was harboring or suppling with munitions or selling WMD formulas to.

Mviale----you try to make it sound like Saddam's Iraq was on our side!

[muwarrior87]

BOO-YAH!!  (I can't believe I just 'boo-yah'd' something murf backed me up on.)

[mviale]

Why dont you booyah on over to Iraq and volunteer then?

[muwarrior87]

because I have complete and total respect for anyone that has the guts to do that for their country but I could not do that.  I do not have the personal will power or drive to do that. That is why I will always support my troops and if it came to that, I would join them but as for now, we have plenty of ppl enlisting and there is no need for the draft.

Just like I'd never join the men's soccer team at marquette cuz i don't have the drive to do that but could if they needed me too.

Lame.


If we had a draft you might be on to something, but we have a volunteer military.

Now, could you answer the question.  You said we should fight Al Queda and we know Al Queda is in Iraq yet you want our troops out.  How, then, do we fight Al Queda?

Typical chicken hawks - squawk,  squawk...

Not at all.  I have a wife with Graves disease and Glaucoma and raising two kids on one income.  So, no, I won't be going over.  If I was asked (i.e drafted), yes I would.  I most certainly wouldn't go to Canada and duck it I can tell you that. 

If I was already in the service and my wife had those conditions, I would go to satisfy my duties.  Meanwhile people are enlisting and re-enlisting all the time. God Bless them all.  They are incredible human beings.


But we can play this game all the time. 

You supported the war in Afghanistan....why aren't you there?   










As a liberal, why aren't you driving a hybrid? 
Why are you on the computer burning up electricity and not saving mother earth? 
Why haven't you given back your tax refunds since the tax cuts are for only the rich?

Shall we go on?

[mviale]

chicos - I am sure they could use someone like yourself in Iraq.  Since it is the war to save western civilization.

[Murffieus]

mviale-----war is a young man's occupation so let's not be ridiculous and ask why people here 35-70 years old don't volunteer.

But you are correct on one thing-----in this day of WMD and suicide- bombers------this is indeed a fight to keep western civilization as we now know it!

[ChicosBailBonds]

Mviale...maybe that's why I'm a huge Duncan Hunter fan....he's running for President and his son is over in Afghanistan as we speak.


Look, it's funny that you talk about history and repeating mistakes.  Perhaps it is you that should look back on history and western civilization and the groups that were involved then and now.  Amazing how it's repeating itself, isn't it? 

Again...why aren't you in Afghanistan since you supported us going in there?  If anything, you are consistent as hell in not answering questions.  You have that down pat...ignore, ignore, ignore, drive by shoot, ignore, ignore, drive by shoot, ignore, ignore. Mojo used to do the same thing...has anyone ever seen Mojo and Mviale in the same place at the same time?
