Liby, me and a buddy or two are gona come down to your town and try to kill you, you'll know who we are becase we drive extreemly loud vehicles, and we all wear the same cloths (wich are conspicuosly diferent from everyone else's in the area by design), we'll be doing this about six months from now so feel free to do whatever you want to prepare in the mean time. and you better becase I'm realy freaking rich and I can get get any weapons I want.

who do you think will win?

[Bobboau]

and.. what Aldo said.

[ionia23]

I'm telling ya.  24 hour warning notice for surrender and departure, then nerve gas the whole joint.  Problem solved.

[Bobboau]

just when people forget sbout the last time you sudgested gassing.

[Rictor]

no, I do believe last time it was nukes. Its so hard to keep tracks of these things, I should start writing them down for future reference.

I just hope someone has the balls to go in and do what the media is supposed to be doing, try to get the truth out despite the media blackout by our dear friends.

Oh well, another day another few thousand dead foreigners.

[ionia23]

*shrug* It's an option,  I never said it was a good one.  Nukes would be too messy.  No point in irradiating an area you're planning on colonising.  But all this is neither here nor there.

It's the new Vietnam and will have the same outcome as the last one.  After a lengthy ass kicking and stacks of dead on both sides, we'll leave a nice big mess behind us to be remembered for generations.

However, not my fault.  I didn't vote for these people.

[Rictor]

Then why do you feel it is necessary to support their actions and act as an apologist what are quite clearly criminal actions?

[Bobboau]

see they forgot!

[Rictor]

say what?

Well, obviously those criminal acts (gassing Fallujah, for example), is never going to happen.  I simply call the situation out for what it is.  Crappy.

I'm not so stupid as to be sold on the concept that this is a 'humanitarian' operation at all.  If my government truly wants to deploy US troops for humanitarian causes, they can get their righteous asses down to the Sudan, Rwanda, Sierra-Leone and do some ****ing good instead of this retarded farce.

When I discuss 'extremist' positions I am blatantly ignoring everything going on around the situation.

News Update: (Unless already mentioned)

Air support will be comprised of GPS or Laser Guided Bombs, not extremely high-explosive, but enough to level a building. The bomb have a severly low chance of missing at all (we've all seen the videos, those suckers nail their target)

Chances of just randomly dropping bombs like in Berlin in WWII is extremely different.

[ionia23]

Unfortunately with the way cities are built, it's not the impact of the bombs you have to worry about, but the collapse of the buildings affecting other locations.

[Bobboau]

you know, the MOAB. with a half kilometer total destruction zone, is GPS guided to within half a centemeter of acuracy of it's intended target.

just sort of a random interesting fact like thing I felt like mentioning.

[.::Tin Can::.]

As I said, non high-explosive bombs. Nothing to level blocks or anything.

[Rictor]

Well yes, but this is all assuming that thr actualt targeting info is correct. That it is indeed an insurgents stronghold, and not, say...a residential building. Kind of hard to tell from sattelite photos.

Precision guidance just means that you hit the target that you intended, not that the target you intended is in fact the right target.

[Bobboau]

yeah, were talking about an inteligentce sevice that marked the chinees embasy as a SAM site, 'knew' there was a nation load of WMD that... didn't exsist, lost Usama. need I go on.

and a 500 lb bomb no mater how close it hits it's target is going to cause masive damage. to anything within a fairly large reagon.

News flash for you mate, in Kosovo over 700 armoured vehicles were claimed killed by US led forces using smart munitions, guess how many wrecks the ground troops found: 2 dozen. If a pilot at a couple of thousand feet up cant tell the difference between a tank and a yugo with a drainpipe sticking out of its windscreen how the **** are they going to be able to tell the difference between an insurgent and some poor pricks running for cover?

Anyways not to piss on your parade but from what I can see the main bombardment is artillery, which is neither gps or laser guided.

[Bobboau]

"they dont apply to you guys seeing how your the champions of freedom and all that bollox."

more like, they dont apply to us becase no one is willing to enforce them. do you want to get a gun and stop us? then quit *****ing, you are just as inefectual as the UN.

Allegedly the Embassy was broadcasting Serb military traffic, probably in return for something from the F117 the serbs shot down.

Actually the belgians are. As for getting a gun and stopping yis meself, if it was a viable option I'd have set about it with great enthusiasm a long time ago, sadly it aint.

[Rictor]

isn't that the Norwegians? where its legal to try any head of state for war crimes, even if they are still in power. Or am I thinking of something else?
