Krip 2 #1 May 19, 2011 Hi Folk According to the Stars and Stripes. As the american troops are leaving iraq. They will be replaced by Mercs, oops "contractors. Google is your friend look it up. The state dept has already a short list of american companies that will supply the Merc's oops contractor's. The generals will be able to meet their timetable for troop drawdown in iraq due to their master plan for winning the war. Anyone want to take a wag who's going to pay the salaries for the merc's. And all the associated costs that come with the treating wounded. The coalition or the iraq's. The US/coalition has been training and arming the Iraqi's for how many yr's ? And they still can't handle their own security. Mission accomplishedOne Jump Wonder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi BR Neither.I have no problem with your profession, it's been around for 1000's of yr's.AFAIK labeling Merc's "contractors" didn't start until the coalition got involved in the sand pile. Similer to the terms "Enhansed interagtion (torture). The first time I heard the term "Ethnic" cleansing was during the CF in "Bosnia" . Slick willy testified under oath he "never had "sex with that women". Until the DNA results "came out" on the womens dress that she saved. The Sperm samples were from afaik came oral "sex " It is what it is depending on your "definition of what is is"I could do the google thing and come up with a link to the definition of a mercernary, but why bother. Or dazzle folks with a link to the Geneva convention. But whats the point, this is SC and it is what it is. Depending on your what definition of what is is. I will admit that I wish the definition of oral sex had been changed when I was in high schoolOne Jump Wonder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will admit that I wish the definition of oral sex had been changed when I was in high school That definition is regionally significant and has a powerful religious component as well. Some portions of our culture and certainly many other cultures prize a hymen above nearly all else. "Come on baby..... its not really sex" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wsd 0 #5 May 19, 2011 To me and my family for generations Mercenary was a profession to be proud of, it was after all what we did. This is going all the way back to King Frederick I at the very least, starting around 1700 my family took this up as the official profession much as other became farmers or blacksmiths. It also explains why we have physical attributes that are genetically predisposed to being of value in this area of employment, after all if we were not good at it we would have died off or become whining professors who rant from their positions of meaningless authority.

Turkey would shit a brick if we let the Kurds form their own country, and Iran vs the Sunnis and Saudi Arabia vs the Shiites. Best to just have left well enough alone. We should never have gotten in there to begin with.

shah269 0 #10 May 19, 2011 Air drop porn and beer and built a Mc Donalds and a Pizza hut...stand back and enjoy the show! Look deep down the peopel of Iraq are no different than you and I. They just want to live in peace. It's that there are these small number of assholes who think that everyone should live in the "good old days" which keep fucking shit up.Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay. The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
