War

[Freak93]

*I was sure to generalize with country just for you Cooljay*

My answer though, no, not in the current situation.

[I am a huge CUNT]

I would go.

[cooljayhu]

Just wondering spartan but why would you die because some politician wants to exert influence over a soveriegn foreign country?

I would rather go the Ali route and rot in jail before I would go to a war in the middle east.

On the other hand if there was some "great danger" or tyranny occuring there I would sign up in a minute. Say we were going into darfur or rwanda or if we lived 70 years ago when the Nazis threathened to take over the world I would be there.

And freak thanks for the equality.

Canadians are people too. Don't ever let anyone tell you different. Unless they are wearing a funny hat, that you just play by ear.

I would just go because I think things are going to get very bad here in the next few years. I want to help it not get that way. I want to take out as many of those terrorist bastards as I could.

Iran scares me. I don't want it to get nuclear.

Which is why I have a Canadien Tuxedo.

[JackTheRipper]

Yes, only because I wouldn't have to fight.

[Sportsbuck]

Yes, I'd go.

[cooljayhu]

just cause you dont fight doesn't mean you can't die. Ask the Canadians occupying Afghanistan. Most if not all the casulties of war there occur during some random bullshit patrol where they're hit by a roadside bomb or worse they get and in an accident and die.

And Spartan the terrorists are people just like you and me who are fighting for what they believe in except they just hate America and everyone in it (hmm.... kinda like me ) Seriously America had no business invading Iraq and will have no business invading Iran unless Iran does something seriously F'd up to provoke it. Did I think Hussein was a douche bag murderer? Yes. Did I enjoy hearing of his death? Absolutely. But it is not hussein who suffered a great injustice it is the innocent men, women and children of Iraq who now have little to no future and if you think that America was justified in murder countless innocents then you are seriously f'd up and need to consult the neares psychiatrist.

[Freak93]

I agree with you on Iran cooljay. I will be pissed if we go in there. When people say we should just nuke them, nothing eats at me more. Think of all of the innocent citizens there who will die because they have some douchebags over there. If someone nuked the U.S. because of our douchebag president, I would be pretty pissed.

[cooljayhu]

But the thing is there really isn't any douche bags there from what I can tell. As far as I know all there doing right is researching ways to use nuclear power for energy purposes. Could they potentially weaponize them? Sure, but they would actually have to be mentally handicapped to start a nuclear war (or any war for that matter) with pretty much the entire world. Not only would Iran get permenantly f'd up but so would the rest of the world to. You think global warming is bad wait for a nuclear disaster.

No douchebags in Iran?

You do realize that they threatened to shoot a U.S. Navy boat looking for a missing sailor off of the Iranian coast, right..?

(I think you meant no douchebags in Iran, if you didn't, just ignore this post)

[cooljayhu]

Do you know the whole story though cause the details were sketchy at best. It may have just been a serious misunderstanding

[Loki]

We know nothing that is actually reality, so why speak on the matter at all? Seriously, everything we hear is just that, hearsay. We'll never know. We'll never know the truth about anything that has and will occur during our lifetime. Our government is just as dirty as the rest of the world's, whether you want to believe it or not.

I said no by the way. What am I fighting for? The worst world leader since Hitler? No thanks. Put me in prison, call me a traitor, but I won't fight Satan's war.

Pretty much the truth..

Which is why I love the end of COD4. You stop the nuclear missles that were launched by the rebels, nearly die and everything getting out of there, and then the Russian Gov't calls it an accidental launch.. realism at it's finest.

[Just Blaze]

If you are called to war, you have to go. I dont know if anyone else has done it yet but I heard signing up for selective service is mandatory. If you are called and chose not to go, you're going to end up in jail.

I just hope a draft doesnt come back.

[detroitbasketball]

Isn't the law that, you have six months from when you turn 18 to register for selective service or else you face prosecution? I'm pretty sure that's it.

[Sportsbuck]

Yeah, DB, that's the law.

[Keeper]

No, these nations present ZERO threat to us what so ever, even if they were hell bent on their hatred of America.

I don't know how Iran scares anyone. They have a crazy leader, sure, but they simply don't have the technology to pose as a viable threat.

So, this: "Iran continues to move on two other components of what would be necessary to deliver a nuclear weapon, both on enrichment and on delivery mechanisms" doesn't scare you at all. I realize this isn't saying they have them yet, but still the fact that they are moving closer to it would scare anybody..

The mere thought of Iran with nuclear weapons scares me..
