When this is all over, Iraq and Iran will be liberated and the North Koreans will belong to a new nation, Korea. We will all just shake our heads and wonder , "How did we do that?" It sure is great having the adults in charge.

Beautiful prayer, Bumped above!

[American in Israel]

Interesting that Korea is causing trouble now, trying to create a diversion?

Bush was right when he called it an axis of evil. They are allies together against the free world.

Just a thought, but if military strategic planning were as simple as watching the lunar calendar, than we could all be military planners.

The Lunar calendar is most important in a nation that we do not already have Air Superiority over. We are taking out his AA systems daily now, we do not need the stealth systems to break through, we did that years ago. I agree with you, I would place the attack a week or two after the lunar date. Sadam will push his guys to top alert during the Lunar low, holding them at high alert tires them out. The best foe is a weary one.

I hope not, loose lips sink ships.

Dolly,

I am also very concerned about the coming hostilities. It totaslly stresses me out at times. Nevertheless, it is time to deal with the issues seriously. These people intend to kill everyone of us.

They despise Americans and they have been plotting to undermine our economy and our entire way of Life!

You should not underestimate these fanatical zealots. They have used WMD on their own citizens.

I see that you only recently signed up on this account. Perhaps you might want to read some more and follow some of the links to other sites. There are a lot of web pages on the Internet that are providing evidence about the true nature of Iraq that is not logically disputable.

Iraq is indeed a Rogue Nation led by a madman!

War is a scary and frightening thing, but it is not the worst thing!

There are many things that are worse than War!

"That would be me. I'm on the USS TARAWA (LHA-1). We've been ready for a few weeks though!"

Is the USS TARAWA a sister ship to the USS BATAAN? My younger brother is on that ship. If he has gotten any orders he hasn't told us, but we told him to not tell us anything unless he was sure it was ok to say it.

God bless all of you who are fighting for all of US.

Close enough.... The TARAWA is an LHA and the BATAAN is the newer LHD class. They can hold more LCAC's (Landing Craft Air Cushing) and have more room on the flight deck. Thank you for your blessings!

Thank you all for your kind words and thoughts and prayers.

Let's Roll!!!
