skully78? Waitaminut....... I thought you said that about Dirk Brandts! skully78's troll????Like I said, you've been owned more times than an old Volare.
You know, when you stop a truck, and it is loaded with brand new weapons, made in Iran and dated in 2006, you get some idea that these weapons were made in Iran and imported to Iraq.Get ready, Bush is seeing weapons again.
President Bush says he's certain the Iranian government is supplying weapons used by fighters in Iraq against U.S. troops, even if he can't prove that the orders came from top Iranian leaders.
I don't know how anybody could take him seriously at this point. It's pretty clear everything we were told about Iraq was a lie. Its also pretty clear that action against Iran has been an agenda for a while.
We have a record of lying and misconstrued intelligence to forward an agenda in Iraq. Now we've known for a while that Iran has been on the agenda for quite a while and suddenly they're making a case. Tell me why anybody should believe them. And if they happen to be right this time they should learn about the fable "The Boy Who Cried Wolf". To me its like Deja Vu. Same rhetoric different country. This administration lacks creativity.
don't really care, never heard it. Wasn't Mel Gibson in an Air America movie about post-Viet Nam airlines or something?Gee, I thought this was going to be an Air America going bankrupt and then having a funding drive to liberate dumbass liberals from their scheckles.
Hey, have you heard Air America lately?
No?
Neither has anyone else, they went bankrupt just like I said they would. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif" alt="" />

Here’s a guy that caused 3000 U.S. soldiers to be killed, thousands injured, destroyed a country and drove them into civil war, spent all of the U.S.’s money, and destroyed every thing America stood for. Why, because he had this imaginary friend that told him there were weapons in Iraq. Now he’s seeing them again.Do you really hate America so much that you would deny prima facie evidence? That you would argue against truth that comes from the gut in order to make America a loser in Iraq?
okay, I did hear about air America, but mostly from you. But really, I don't care, I never listen to it, and wouldn't know where I could listen to it if I wanted to, and I wouldn't know why I would want to even if I knew where I could listen to it."don't really care, never heard it."
Bullshit.
You have a bad case of the sniffles because that putrid stench on the airwaves is gone. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif" alt="" />
Funny how you will condemn a US president but not a dictator that killed in genocide. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif" alt="" />
Right on. Know what Bush and Disco have in common,See that's just it... not one liberal I know listens to Air America. I wouldn't even know where to look for it - is it AM, FM, internet? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/shrug.gif" alt="" /> Tex knows more about it than pretty much any "liberal" here. Bankruptcy? News to me! "Rent free", Tex <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif" alt="" />okay, I did hear about air America, but mostly from you.

If you're talking about Sadam, I did and do condemn him and am glad he's dead, really I am. But his death isn't worth what Bush did to get him dead.
And Bush has done more damage to the U.S. than any Axis of evil guy ever will.
But in Tex's deluded little worldview:
- anyone who didn't vote for Bush has their home decorated with posters of, and wears nothing but T-shirts of, Che Guavara
- if you oppose the war you love Saddam
- if you didn't post on this forum condemning Clinton going into Bosnia then you cannot criticize Bush for going into Iraq
- anyone who criticizes the Bush administration is a fully paid-up member of Moveon.org (refer to the above Air America example for the extent of my knowledge on moveon.org, too)
- he consistently "owns" liberals on this forum with his rapier-sharp use of rolling smileys and avoidance of questions posed to him (by this thinking he'd win UFC 68 by running around the ring wearing a clown mask while refusing to actually fight)
- disapproval of the handling of the Iraq war equates to full support of any number of homicidal dictators that Tex can think of (except Pinochet - he's OK in Tex's eyes because all his murdering was good for the Chilean economy <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/socrazy.gif" alt="" />)
Al Franken deserves props for being a very entertaining party hack. He wrote some great old acts for SNL, too! But the funniest part of Al's shtick was what it revealed about the liberals who thought his jokes were sooooo hilarious!Hey, have you heard Air America lately? No? Neither has anyone else, they went bankrupt just like I said they would.
None of those were prima facie.You know, when you stop a truck, and it is loaded with brand new weapons, made in Iran and dated in 2006, you get some idea that these weapons were made in Iran and imported to Iraq.Get ready, Bush is seeing weapons again.

When you see a lot of the highest tech Iranian mines/mortars in use, also manufactured in the last year, you get an idea that someone in the Iranian military is doing this.

You see, unlike the WMDs which were based on huge misrepresentations of flimsy intel, in this case military commanders in Iraq have weapons they have seized from insurgents that are high level Iranian military arms.
Kinda like back in the early 60s when Kennedy pulled out the pics of Russian nukes being unloaded in the Caribbean...
Do you really hate America so much that you would deny prima facie evidence? That you would argue against truth that comes from the gut in order to make America a loser in Iraq?
Lets see this administration told us about WMD's, yellow cake uranium, aluminum tubes, chemical and bio-weapon stockpiles, uunmanned aircraft that could distribute bio and chemical weapons over thousands of miles, mushroom clouds over American cities and on and on. How much of that turned out to be true? So now why would I believe the same source when they tell me the next country on their list is supplying them with weapons? It might very well be true. But I just can't believe this administration. You can buy into the hype all you want.
yes, they want to keep the oil from pumping, guess who wants to get the oil pumping.He's wrong...
The Sunnis are also being propped up by international aid...
from the Saudis....
But Iran has a HUGE interest in maintaining chaos in Iraq...they want to keep the oil from pumping...they could care less about the Shia, really, after all the Persian Shia don't really break bread with the Arabic Shia anyway.
Because as soon as Iraq comes online, oil prices will drop dramatically, and Iran will take it where it hurts, in the wallet.
The same is true of the Sunni nations and their funding of the insurgents.
The Iraqi nationals who have never benefited from the oil profits need to kick arse and get the oil back online, then there will be plenty of $$ to keep law and order intact.
The US, in order to win, needs to close off international aid to insurgents from BOTH sides. This structural change, more than any troop surge, will lead to the US winning in Iraq.
What do you have against winning, anyway?
