Should The USA Accept the Truce?

[MSgt]

I hear what you're saying, but let's be real, everyone's political viewpoints, especially when it comes to matters of war, are influenced by emotion in one way or another. I don't flatter myself to be one with all the right answers, but I suspect the right path, as always, is somewhere in the middle. Thus, making it not only right, but necessary, to consider all viewpoints. Plus, I tend to give people credit for having a thoughtful viewpoint at all.....so many people just don't care and are ready to accept whatever choices are made on their behalf.

Yeah, but I'm a firm believer that if an individual's opinion doesn't match mine then it must be wrong. It's the arrogance in me.

I know. I really do. Most of the time I don't even mean to.

WP does not make a mushroom cloud, in fact it makes what looks much like a standard fireworks chrysanthemum. Long smoke trails arching out form a central point and falling back to earth with a bright spark at the lead.

What they are describing sounds more like napalm.

What are you so afraid of?

The USS Liberty for example was bombed by the Israelis.If you used leftist ant-semitc sites then the attack was a case of terrorism agaisnt the US commited by Israelis.Now if you look around through different sites then you will find out that two days prior to the ship being bomb the US announced to the world "that it had no warships within hundreds of miles of the combat zone."

I understand the point you are making. And it is a valid one. But it is not the case in the context of this discussion. What I am saying is that something has occured. In your scenario, there was an attack on the USS Liberty. Many people on this board try to say to me that they don't believe the USS Liberty was attacked because the information I used came from a biased source.

Snakes. Vile serpents of Satan.

Isn't that amazing? I will clear buildings, attack into an attack, search for IED's, and lead patrols into fire fights, but you place a snake in my path and I am useless.
