Kinda. There was this guy who was in my Math 2 class Sophomore year, Mike Anderson I think his name was (I'd have to look it up in the year book). I wasn't friends with the guy, but he used to sit a few seats behind me and graduated in my class. 4 years later, while I'm checking the bulletins at my job, I see a flyer posted up that had his picture wearing combat attire saying RIP. He died in Iraq. I was actually a little stunned when I saw that. Didn't break down or cry or anything, but it was a "Oh shit " moment.

You say common knowledge, but i don't see that anywhere around North America.

thats funny because i just saw a commercial for the magic bullet the other day. Wow whoever thought of that was a genius.

Originally posted by VAR you tread water very well, very nice. a word of advice, if you can't cash that check, then do NOT sign it. COR version- just shut the fuck up before you trip and fall.

Why dont you take a page out of your own book then and stop being such a cry baby. While the deaths of americans (lets leave the foreigners out for the sake of argument) are tragic for the immediate familly and friends, noboday else actually cares as their deaths dont really affect anyone or anything else. The money spent, the debt acquired on the other hand will affect the country, and posssibly the world, for years to come.

US drone targets Somalian terrorists

http://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...xZrH_story.html

quote:

A U.S. drone aircraft fired on two leaders of a militant Somali organization tied to al-Qaeda, apparently wounding them, a senior U.S. military official familiar with the operation said Wednesday. The strike last week against senior members of al-Shabab comes amid growing concern within the U.S. government that some leaders of the Islamist group are collaborating more closely with al-Qaeda to strike targets beyond Somalia, the military official said. The airstrike makes Somalia at least the sixth country where the United States is using drone aircraft to conduct lethal attacks, joining Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, Iraq and Yemen. And it comes as the CIA is expected to begin flying armed drones over Yemen in its hunt for al-Qaeda operatives.

Guess we can add a few billion more if firing on Somalia becomes a recurring thing too.

Oh please, stop. You're going to make me cry.

Originally posted by pkcRAISTLIN Oh look, another moron who believes everything he reads on the internet. The term �al qaeda� was can be traced to the early 80s. don�t believe me, listen to the terrorist you�re apologising for It�s funny, because I was studying Al Qaeda prior to 911, no doubt you�d never heard about the loose association of terrorists before then, but your ignorance is probably insurmountable. Fucken losers

Did you not read that on the internet?

And why would you believe such a heinous character on this? You don't believe everything he says do you?

Originally posted by Tweak Did you not read that on the internet?

i am much better at assessing information than knowhope (apparently, i've only got his 911 idiocy to go on).

Originally posted by Tweak And why would you believe such a heinous character on this? You don't believe everything he says do you?

nope. i figured knowhope would though, given that he's spent the last X years apologising for OBL & AQ with his truther idiocy. there are, of course, many other reputable sources that mention AQ prior to 911.

of course, if this is a precursor to "911 was an inside job" then you're as much a dickhead as knowhope.

Keep watching CNN world news. It's the best.

What i love the most about conspiracy theorists is their smug sense of superiority when they talk to you, as if they know more than you do, are wiser then you are, and therefore are infinitely superior to you in every possible way and entitled to a condescending retort.

yeah, it's pretty much inherent to any CT i've "met". they love being "in the know". everyone that disagrees has been educated by "CNN".

knowhope was barely 10 years old when the towers collapsed, he certainly had no idea about islamic terrorism in 2001. i fear there's a whole generation of idiot children like him

Yeah after Bin Laden was shot, all you saw were young college kids celebrating. Like you said, they were ten, eleven years old and really couldn't grasp what was happening yet then. This younger generation is pretty pathetic IMO.

I have my conspiracy theories, but whenever something major in this country happens, cakes and circuses seem to shortly follow. Right now people are more concerned with a government official that posts pics of his schlong like he's the first person to do it. Meanwhile our debt piles up and the housing market is worse than the Great Depression. The media especially the internet really clouds people judgement and makes them retarded.

Yah i probably was in my teens, but that doesn't stop me from educating myself in world news.

Either way, since you're getting all irritated, i'll stop with that. Anyhow, the event has already happened and there are tons of conspiracy theories out there.

PBS NewsHour gives a concise, non-bias view of global issues.

the news hour is made of so much win.

pkcRAISTLIN gets it.;

I also like how its not pretentious. News should not have glitz and glamour; or icons i.e. Anderson Cooper, Hannity etc.

Those people are given a political agenda that they are contractually obligated to fulfill. For all we know that could have the exact opposite politics on their reports.
