Yes, and I'm glad he's dead and you'll notice I said so, and hoped the killing would decrease.But cmon, your argument doesnt hold water if you cant tell me which conflicts we should be helping in, or should have helped in.

All I know is that he is the bastard that sawed Nick Bergs head off and videotaped it. They also found, from what I read, up to 17 heads in boxes in the compound where he was killed. This sick {censored}er was collecting heads. Those are good enough reasons for me to celebrate his death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 17 Tubes Posted June 9, 2006 Members Share Posted June 9, 2006 Originally posted by cloudnine Canada has done more than its share in the conflicts of the past and had one of the highest ratios of population to enlisted men, so please, dont try it. The only thing you guys have defended us from recently are our fair shake of softwood lumber money. Yes we benefit, of course. Doesnt mean I cant criticize the American administration. I admitted almost as much. And you're right. I derserve some admonishment. I think you are undervaluing your benefits from the USA, and that is just my opinion.

Believe me, the economic benefits are many and obviously NATO, spearheaded by the US, keeps us safe from an attack that will never happen ( ). I love my American brethren. The admin, not so much.

Members Highgrade Posted June 9, 2006 Members Share Posted June 9, 2006 From CNN:'The most wanted man in Iraq died in a U.S. airstrike Wednesday evening when two 500-pound bombs slammed into a safe house near Baquba, according to U.S. Army Maj.

Members cloudnine Posted June 9, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 9, 2006 Originally posted by Roccaforte Amps ] those are very small numbers. I think the main point thats getting lost here, the US is the only country that has put major effort into liberating other countries. Sorry, but Canada has never come close. They have helped, but IMO it was miniscule. Uh, Europe And, if we wanted to be more specific:www.holland.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cloudnine Posted June 9, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 9, 2006 Also, not every country that the US has attacked recently can be said to have been liberated, and I dont know if any of them really asked for liberation. But hey, Grenada was a hellhole, man. You cant un-see that kind of {censored}. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Simon Garlick Posted June 9, 2006 Members Share Posted June 9, 2006 Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, barely forty and barely literate, a Bedouin from the Bani Hassan tribe, was until recently almost unknown outside his native Jordan. Then, on February 5, 2003, Secretary of State Colin Powell catapulted him onto the world stage. In his address to the United Nations making the case for war in Iraq, Powell identified al-Zarqawi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take this one since I'm Air Force. You have bombs that are made to penetrate a building, then explode, and you have bombs that explode on impact. Depending on the building's construction, the bombs blast can do different types of damage. You could have a gaping hole in the middle and collapsing around the edges with slabs of concrete in a stack adjacent. I'm sure he died from being nailed with debris from the explosion and/or suffocated inside what was left of the building.There are no hocus pocus tricks here. He's dead.
