I'm glad to hear you express gratitude for America's saving Australia from Japanese slavery in WW2. Certainly, we saved your Dad's generation from forced labor and your mother's generation from worse.

So please, let's now hear your utter condemnation of all the errant bombs and shells which killed so many Japanese civilians, not to mention the dead in Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Tokyo.

That is if you want to be consistant.

Otherwise, you should shut your trap about our less than perfect bombing in Afghanistan, or just hang the selective morality tag of the hypocrite on your door. That is, you express gratitude for the USA saving you in WW2, imperfect bombs and all, but you condemn our far more accurate bombs in Afghanistan.

Our strategic target is the Al Qaida and Taliban leadership, and this is a war, not a negotiation. They started it on 9-11, and now we will finish it.

If they want to hide among civilians, that's on them.

Travis, You sure are tenacious bull dog. ... You just never quit!
You're just going to have to learn that some folks are simply to screwed up to learn. It's a waste of time, effort and spleen strain to deal with them.. Our boy "down under" is just such a case...

Have you ever heard again from our young Gulf War "stinger" lad? I forgot his user name. I exchanged several freep mails with him - and in private conversation he comes across as VERY different from his posting persona.
Semper Fi

"We"?

He he he.

Trav, please don't include a keyboard warrior like yourself amongst the generation who actually fought fascism in the 40s. I've never met an ex-soldier who loves the thought of spilling blood the way you do.
