Quote from reg:
If one should go back and look at all of mahram's posts, it is very clear that he expresses glee everytime the U.S. is put in a bad light.
He claims to care for the alleged victims of US military brutality, but says nothing about the savagery American soldiers face at the hands of the enemy (as in the case of the two soldiers recently captured and beheaded by Iraqi insurgents).
This Iranian enjoying the comforts of western capitalism and freedom by living in Canada cannot seem to understand that military brutality against civilians and even enemy combatants are NOT U.S. policy.
No soldier is taught or encouraged to INTENTIONALLY harm civilians. Those who are caught engaging in this type of action are investigated and punished if found guilty, which is happening right now with regards to the incident that mahram is referring to.
If it was American policy to indiscriminately bomb suspected insurgent locations and kill any person even remotely suspected of being the enemy without regard for civilian lives like what Saddam Hussein did while he was in power, let me assure you this war would have been over in 2 weeks.
I think it is best that we ignore the future posts of this pedophile troll called mahram and deny him the attention he so much craves.
Quote from mahram:
no, just saying I told you so. Everybody was saying this wasn't like vietnam. Well iraq has become a vietnam echo. But all the lessons still not learned. And those lessons are taken out on the people of iraq.
Idahook, as a fromer marine, if a marine raped,beatup, and murdered your daughter, and killed your family, how would you react when you hear people going its war it happens. Would you go that is life, or go these people really dont care about us.
Idahook, if the united states want to help iraq. How come, the united states aren't willing to make the monetary or military sacrifices. Why are teh americans so afraid to spend the money necessary, even if it means a recession and hard times for americans for the wellbeing of iraqis. Or start a draft to really secure the borders of iraq?

Kudos mahram, he called it, you have to have been right about something pretty damn big to be as offhand in reporting, where tradernik, et al simply line up the o'l accusatory blunderbuss.
Quote from acronym:
Actually, the exclamation marks in the title were a bit much.
Further, this is standard practice of most military forces, throughout history.
Including the us , in the firebombing campaigns of korea, vietnam, WW2, in fact way back, its standard practice .
I wouldn't like to draw the line as to what constitutes a "modern" army, because the reality is , rape, murder, pillage, torture and genocide have always been the primary weapons of war.

First paragraph - You never told me anything.
Second paragraph - If you actually read my post you would see how saddened these tragedies make me.
Third paragraph - I cant speak for the governments policies. I`m my own man and a proud Libertarian. W was not my candidate.
Whatever your beliefs your entitled to them. Just as you are entitled to trade the USA`s capital markets(ironic since you think the worst of its citizens represent all of us). Just dont try and pretend to be biased on this subject. You embrace the horrors.....or else you would not be placing "smileys" around them.
Dont bother responding....i`m done here.
