Other's get life for participating in murder.
And she can always sell it when she leaves the military and gets thrown on the unemployment scrapheap of US capitalism.
And after Tennessee, Iraq must have given her a taste of sophistication.

The other two will most likely recover, though one will forever have a bullet lodged between second and third ribs below his heart. No word on the three COSCOM soldiers wounded in the initial volleys.

Glanecia said:Naughty Nurse is right. Murder is unlawful. Killing an enemy isn't.
Glanecia said:"Heart?" That's different--but cute!
Irony doesn't change the fact that she's right.
Urethra Franklin said:I hope Mr. Bush is proud of what he's inflicted on his own people..
Urethra Franklin said:Mmm, would that be that melting pot where a lot of you actually live in white only/black only communities? Would that be that melting pot that has the distiction of being the only country out of many visited, where I ever got any hassle for being on the arm of a black man?..
Urethra Franklin said:I hate that innocent youngsters get sent out in the name of nations to kill other innocent youngsters, on the strangth of a lie for the profit of a priveliged few.
Urethra Franklin said:Nor the fact that "she" is a man.
You wouldn't be gender stereotyping by any chance would you?
Must have been a real kick in the pants for the Islamic militants to get defeated by a couple of well trained girls and their buddies.
akyron said:It is also a fondue restaurant in Indianapolis but whats your point? Everyone has problems.

akyron said:Actually they were driving along in a supply convoy and were attacked by people looking for more hostages to behead over the internet.

Glanecia said:Even if Bush's agenda was merely one of "political and economic gain", I'd support the War on Terrorism. More power to him. :2razz:
"Liberating the Iraqis"? I'm betting that will happen with or without his "political and economic gain". After all, America cares. :lol:
Glanecia said:Argumentum ad hominem is a sign of weakness, you know.
Would that be why you started with your "stupid question" quip?
So why aren't you in Uzbekistan? Oil interest.
Saudi Arabia? Oil interest.
Zimbabwe? Nothing to gain economically.
"America" (by which I'm sure you mean the United States) cares about it's own profit.
Naughty Nurse said:"America-Cares Bear" - shoting the crap out of innocent foreigners - but in a cuddly kind of way? Puh-leeze! And you're a teacher?
Naughty Nurse said:All sound sadly like indoctrination to me.
Glanecia said:I just added more ramblings in my last post.
Indoctrination? Nope.
Indoctrination = telling one how they should think
Education = teaching one how to think
Naughty Nurse said:They will have learned the Pledge of Allegiance by the age of 6, according to yourself. That is "teaching" children parrot fashion in the hiope that it will become deeply imbedded befor they are old enough to understand it. Have you read Brave New World?
Glanecia said:No, I have not read Brave New World. I'd like to hear more about it.
I Pledge Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands,
one Nation under God,
indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
I see nothing wrong with that, other than the "God" aspect. *giggle*
Though I have learned the pledge word for word, I have also learned what it means -word for word.
Children learn about the symbolism, its historical evolution and most importantly -they learn that they have the right to refuse the pledge due to religious beliefs.

My classmate, Troy, never said the pledge due to his beliefs as a Jehovah’s Witness.
My Point? This is hardly indoctrination.
