Name, Rank, and Number

Does this mean a calvinist serving in the military doesn't have to follow these codes?
Sorry, couldn't resist...

 

It's amazing how quickly some people, who are sitting on their butts, are willing to pass judgment on others who are in harm's way!

 

Is theological? Die for the flag = die for Jesus? Let someone else kill you=free pass to Heaven?

I'd rather see my kids go to Canada than get killed for Bush oil buddies.

 

I'm passing judgement on the people in charge. This whole thing stinks. More reason why a U.S. serviceman should never serve under a U.N. flag.

 

Find out the US/UN manning in the Sinai between Egypt & Israel.
Compare to US/Allied manning in Afghanistan.

How long has the Sinai peace keeping force been there?
Since 1967? 1976?

 

This must be within the 95% of the time we agree. :thumbs: Seems the UN is something I wish both our countries would get away from.

Ed, I am going for 67... is there a prize?

I stand by what I wrote.

 

This whole affair has siginificantly lowered the reputation of Britain on the world stage: at each turn of events our Dear Leader and his useless Foreign Secretary have been wrong-footed by Mr Ahmanidinnerjacket (or whatever his name is), who has come out of this smelling of roses at least as far as his home audience are concerned.

I guess we'll have to leave it to the Israelis to wipe the smirk off his face with a pre-emptive strike before the summer's out; I hope his nuclear site-workers are being paid danger money...
