Fine you old farts, I will make a ping lister for you. Give me 15 minutes.

[Marine_Uncle]

I surely can go along with that suggestion!

[Marine_Uncle]

I know. This has been rather ridiculus and sad at the same time.
Surely at this point he must realize force must be applied to prove they are dead serious about ending both the sectarian problem as well as the insurgency in general.
They keep pussy footing around. Why he cannot state he agrees with the US policy, and is not a puppet of the US is beyond me. That is, is he really serious about ending all the blood shed. Perhaps this is a major move getting rid of a lot of people that are not going along with a more elaborate program they want to put in place.
Perhaps is the best I would venture. To many arguments we can use to show he could be just full of hot air.

Thank you, young whippersnapper!

[Marine_Uncle]

I know. I had meant to do that a few years back. Lazy taint I.

Check out the date of the original article: Tuesday, 21 November 2006

Yes?

[Edit35]

those elements that ...(wont) work through the political process, ... will be dealt with in a kinetic manner with direct action,” Caldwell said.

What the freak kind of language is THAT??

Those who wont cooperate will be TERMNATED

[Libertina]

LOL Not YOU, the subject of the article. :)

[The Old Hoosier]

'bout time. A step in the right direction. But I wonder how many more there are...

[Gene Eric]

>> These findings confirm that Iraqis want to live in a unified, multi-ethnic country

As does the vast majority of the human race. Oddly enough, the vast majority of the human race doesn't appear to be interested in the case of the Iraqi people.

Malarchey?
Were you seeking to spell Maliki?

[Danae]

LOL Same thing. Its just PC Military speak LOL. Kinetic meaning ACTIVE ENERGY I am sure LOL

[quesney]

Geez Louise. Ya gotta wonder who he might've missed.

[Tarantulas]

Is this more milspeak, or just poor proofreading?

"They're moving forward and addressing some of the people within that ministry that are not swearing allegiance to first and instead maybe in fact have allegiance to some other element," Caldwell said.

If you swear allegiance to first, then who's on second?

[freema]

Ping

[freema]

It's good for my heart and mind to see a prayer here.

[sure_fine]

doesn't something like this always happen just ahead a big meeting that is coming up now?

[RedRover]

Bump.

[TexKat]

Yes?

Yes?

Pointing out that this is something that has already happened, (the title reads as if it is something that is currently happening (fires instead of fired).

The above article is regarding a speech that Maj. Gen. William B. Caldwell IV gave on November 20 in which he mentions the firing of 3,0000 employees which happened, and was reported in Oct 2006.

Iraqi ministry fires 3,000 accused of abuses; will change top leaders October 15, 2006

Just trying to be clear on whether or not it was the same 3,000 or an additional 3,000.
