only 935?

I served in the army because I chose to.
I should be able to pay the way for my childrens freedom by the time they are grown.

how has our country ever been victorious in a war? besides the revolutionary war.

even when we win, we end up losing by paying to "rebuild infrastructure" which usually means setting up corporate business ventures for the proponents of each particular war in the losing countries, which means digging us further into debt and fostering world wide hatred at the same time.

and for FYI no, no I, nor anyone that I know personally has profited from this war, or any war. I do know casualties.

I also know that Dick Cheney has made over $50 million since the 2003 invasion of Iraq, what's the salary of a vice pres. of the US anyway?

I think any soldier in the field profits from any war, they are not doing it for free?

And OBL does not fit your own listed definition?


"Other uses
Another political use of "regime" concerns international regulatory agencies (see International regime), which lie outside of the control of national governments. These have more power over a greater range than postal or telecommunications agreements, for example, and constrain national governments."


Reach for something else now... You gave OBL up on your own

the taliban is about as political as the mafia, they thug their way into wielding influence.

if they were a real political power, political pressure would have them handing OBL over to us for the trial he so desperately deserves.

The Taliban was the ruling organization of Afghanistan. How exactly were they not political? It's like if the Mafia were openly in political control of Sicily, but still killed people, well, that wouldn't make it any less of a political power.

WTF are we doing in Iraq?

no, but the point of the this thread was the deceptions that led us into Iraq.

MISINFORMATION about WMD's
Iraq's connection with AQ (is fact) However the way certain sides SPIN it is that Because we claim he has ties with AQ means he was involved in 9/11

If AQ had NOT attacked New york, would they be good guys?

Because Saddam was not involved with 9/11 but is involvedwith AQ make him a good guy?



there is an article at the beginning that explains it far better than I can, with all research involved.

Then by your definition, I guess the National Socialists were not a political power in Germany either.

FIXT.

where do I begin?

much like our government, the national socialist party (which did not start out as a political power) chose the King of Liars as there leader and he then used the press to spread his lies, deciet and misinformation regarding his false flag terror operations against his own country to spread his hateful twisted propaganda much to the detriment and eventual ruin of "his" country.

then , ultimate coward that he was at heart, he killed himself and let his former supporters swing in the wind (literally) and his subjugated citizens and their progeny pay the price to this day.

I believe your original question was if AQ had not attacked new york would they be good guys? well there was a time when America thought they were, so much so, in fact that we even supplied them with the weapons they were using to fight the Russians for us.
