Exposing troops to this is BS, send professional medical personnel

[14SLTZ71]

If they want to send people, send volunteer professionals in the medical field and provide funding. Why do military troops need to be exposed to this, of course if called upon they have no choice.

Edit: have we forgotten that other countries have their own military forces and that other sympathetic countries can provide security forces, why does it always have to be US.

Just an FYI, this site is allergic to political posts, so you'll know why it disappears.

 

Two facts;

The only business the US still leads the world in by a wide margin is "defense technology"

 

And we are in constant wars inside countries with oil.

 

I think that pretty much explains everything.

Close the gates and lock them. Build them where aren't any. If someone wants to help the sick very good, as long as they get isolated when they return. If that sickness gets here, well we really need to secure our borders, that should be a no brainer.

All a part of Obama's plan. I'd say more, but I'd probably get banned! Hey, that rhymes!

I think the general public for the most part disagrees with the move.

 

On the topic if isis they need to be blown off the map.

Why? Because they are killing children, beheading people?

 

Thats happening in Mexico. In fact, its happened when Mexican citizens have crossed the border and killed American ranchers resisting the drug incursions on their land. They have killed American law enforcement and agents. I've heard a while back Border Patrol has been forbidden against defending themselves if the assailant are on the other side of the border, they are supposed to retreat.

 

People are worried about these guy coming here and killing Americans. The same people aren't thinking about the fact the Drug Cartels are already doing the SAME thing yards from the border(on both sides).

 

Why aren't we invading Mexico?

 

We aren't doing anything about it, really.

 

Correct me if I'm wrong, and I'm NOT saying they are good or need to be around, but, ISIL

 

Has there been any actual proof of half the claims about the atrocities? Think about it, the beheading video doesn't show an actual beheading, no video has been publically released that shows it. What's strange is you can find beheading videos in other uprising events of the last few years. If this is the "big one", why hasn't it shown up on live leaks yet?

 

The victims are completely calm. If someone was going to behead you, are you going to read their BS and then calmly wait until they start sawing? Seems like fighting to the bitter end(getting shot trying to escape) is the better method. Maybe it's just me.

 

In one of the videos the bad guys are wearing white nike's?

Any of you soldiers/marines run into the terrorists wearing Nike's in the middle of no where? If the terrorists know their own land, don't they know they need boots out there?

 

Since the Kurds, our allies, have taken over the Iraqi oil fields, gas and oil prices have dropped or been fairly steady. That's interesting.

 

 

Using the guise of " national security " is BS. Crap like this has gone on in Africa daily for decades, hasn't it?

[RyanbabZ71]

I agree about being calm before being beheaded. It's either 1. Fake or 2. They are drugged

They do fake set ups to those people almost daily to get them numb to it. They think its another fake session. The oil prices are dropping because there has been so much more found here, and we are using less. People are spending more money elsewhere just to break even, driving less. (Obama Care Anyone) My insurance went up 300$ per month, same with the wife. Iraq proof really? Remember 911? We have to be the bad ass good guys or the world goes to hell. We should have bases in Iraq and Afganistan, just like Germany and South Korea. If we have to use some of their oil to fund it. Look around China advancing Russia is advancing, we win against the bad guys and give it back. We give people freedom, sometimes we have to hold their hand awhile till the can handle it. What dose the other side give them?

[SnakeEyeSS]

911 wasn't Iraq. It was people from Afghanistan. Bush even pointed that out during the Shock and Awe speech. He said we were going because of WMDs.

 

It is NOT our job to give people freedom. It is THEIR job to get themselves freedom. That's why its failing miserably, they have no personal involvement. It's like the people that win a lottery and go broke in 5 years. Same principle. They had our weapons and training, ISIL marched in with Toyotas and 20 year old AK's and then the charity cases started running.

 

Let's revisit REAL history, for a moment, shall we?

France DID NOT come over here and start fighting the British so the American Colonies would be free. France only helped after we begged them and convinced them we were worth the fight.

 

Where is China advancing? In military tech? Well in that mindset everyone else should attack us right now before we conquer the world.

 

Russia? The 1st world nations of Europe have Nuke's. Enough Nuke's. Let them use them.

Pearl Harbor, 911, nothing to worry about. Just a fluke never happen again. Leave our borders open, no screening, no problems. The little virus going around, getting school kids sick, wonder where that came from? Resistant strain of TB, no problem. In history when we stay counties thrive, when we don't counties fail. East Germany ,West Germany. We can just stay out let Iran get the bomb, pull out of Germany, south Korea etc . Let those nukes fly over there Im sure none would stray over hear. Like you said even we had a little help getting started. I think we just have to agree to disagree.

If that is your response, you didn't understand my last post, remember MAD, if you nuke us, we nuke you. Everyone loses, no one wins.

 

It would be very simple, since we like dropping propaganda leaflets:

 

If you, your country, or its inhabitants attack us, fire will rain from the sky, the sand will turn to glass, and your land will be uninhabitable for generations.

 

They don't have nukes. Their choice is to clean out their country themselves, or we do it for them in one day.

 

Did you know that the Japanese Emperor DID NOT WANT to surrender after the bombs? The Japanese people "convinced" them.

 

You REALLY need to watch the 15 year old documentary History Channel(back when it was legit) made on X-Day. Thank God it didn't happen. We had ships on the way with men to invade Japan. The plan was this: Continuously drop nukes a mile from the troops as they advanced, so there would be little to no resistance.

 

Think about that. It would have KILLED ALL our troops. The US Armed Forces thought the scientist s were just blowing the whole radiation thing out of purportion.

If that is your response, you didn't understand my last post.

That could be, my wife says Im hard headed, ill read again real slow. This stuff really rattles me.

I just added some more to my last post, 2 up, (and removed a line that sounded buttheaded). I am all for killing evil and protecting our country. The first huge hint a few years ago was when this came out.

 

I have never heard of the site before but this is the summary, i just googled it to give you some reference.

What boggles my mind is people who can't stand Obama, and think he is lying, believe him on this.

 

Second guess your government. Our Found Father's left plenty of quotes trying to drill this into our heads

Now I am curious, why does that boggle your mind?
