Iraq



I have a friend in Iraq, and maybe you guys won't care, but I would like to summarize a conversation I just had with him...
He told me that he does not want to get in firefights anymore because off all the paperwork the sissy liberal lawyers make him fill out everytime...
The stories in the paper that they do not have proper training is crap...how can you train 100% for Muslims shooting rockets at you from all over and to get shot at by people that look the same as any people you see every day....especailly why you have so many damn rules to follow and your enemy has NONE....

I respect your friend and wish him the best.

That said, you have said that the proper training stuff is crap and then you immediately say they are not trained.

Second, if he feels there is too much paperwork (which I'm sorry, but I've never heard that one before from anyone) then he better get his ass out of there because he is not doing his fellow soldiers any good by not wanting to kill the enemy or defend his mates.

"Sissy liberal lawyers"? Why do you hate America?

That being said,jumbled one,the
fact that the playing field is not even,is major frustration while trying hard not to get killed.

but jim doesn't care that our soldiers have to abide by all the rules or be on the front page of the Times, but the enemy is just fine doing whatever they want...

Yep, that's YOUR argument. Somehow I'm percieved as emotional. I guess that makes me wrong. But it's just more bullshit, game, because there is no particular "emotion" demonstrated in my post.

As if emotion is a bad thing.

There is jim being all emotional again...
I am talking about all the extra and pointless things our military has to do because of lawyers...and Jim turns it into an emotional rant about not having any rules...can't argue with you...all I can do is hope your ilk never gets control of the military or our govt again.

Lawyers. Which lawyers are those again?

Sorry, don't get it Game. I guess "emotional" is your word for "logical", because I don't see anything in my post that would warrant any characterization of emotional unless you're talking about the part where I'm playing your soldier without rules of engagement. You keep using that word about my perfectly logical responses, so I guess that's the word for "logical" you learned in school.

No other explanation.
