DogOnPorch Posted March 12, 2012 Report Posted March 12, 2012 Ever been to Vancouver? You could have said Ottawa and you'd be more correct. Of course I've been to Vancouver. The Millenium Bomber made his bomb in Vancouver and then took the Port Angeles ferry from Victoria. BTW, today the MB's sentance was overturned (22 yrs) for being not enough hard time.

Shady Posted March 12, 2012 Report Posted March 12, 2012 So if a bunch of Saudis trained in Russia, NATO would have invaded Russia? It depends. Are the Saudis there training at the invitation of the Russian government? Quote
Shady Posted March 12, 2012 Report Posted March 12, 2012 you realize that ..that would have been nuclear war then right? my god, its like you forgot who your adversary was during the middle to end part of the last century The Soviet Union was everyone's adversary. At least those of us that believe in freedom. I'm beginning to understand you a little better now. Quote

DogOnPorch Posted March 12, 2012 Report Posted March 12, 2012 Meanwhile, in Iraq, at least 14 kids have been stoned with bricks for wearing Western clothes or sporting Western haircuts.

I'd chat with BC-2004 about that. He's the only one here to have his finger on the button. Quote Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris.
Jack Weber Posted March 12, 2012 Report Posted March 12, 2012 Its called protecting your national interests So... If the US used/uses proxies it's a sign of weakness... If the Russians and the Chinese use proxies it's about protecting thier national interests... Gotcha... Quote The beatings will continue until morale improves!!!
olpfan1 Posted March 12, 2012 Report Posted March 12, 2012 That might/could still happen... See Iran right now... No THAT WOULD HAVE ALREADY HAPPENED if as you "intellects" claim that the U.S would have invaded Russia if AQ trained there Quote

U.S had no interests in South Vietnam prior to the war other than to stop communism Same with North / South Korea While China & Russia had strategic interests in those countries Edited March 12, 2012 by olpfan1 Quote
eyeball Posted March 12, 2012 Report Posted March 12, 2012 Right. I'd chat with BC-2004 about that. He's the only one here to have his finger on the button. Too bad he doesn't have the launch codes eh? Quote A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.
Jack Weber Posted March 12, 2012 Report Posted March 12, 2012 (edited) No THAT WOULD HAVE ALREADY HAPPENED if as you "intellects" claim that the U.S would have invaded Russia if AQ trained there I'm not certain the Russians have alot of affinity for Islamofascists...In fact,I'm certain they don't... See the problems in Georgia and Chechnya and the bombings in the Moscow subway... I'm thinking they would get rid of Al Qaeda members if they could...
