    Exclamation 22 Navy Seals killed in Afghanistan over the weekend???

    rant on ///// it wasn't headline news anywhere. WTF?

    so, did you hear about the 22 navy seals that got killed in Afghanistan over the weekend? I did not hear about it until the guy that won the Nascar race said, "I ain't nobody. I just drive race cars. The real heroes are the guys who died in Afghanistan yesterday".

    so, I thought, "wtf is he talking about" and I went upstairs and googled it. well, well well it doesn't really come up anywhere except Fox News and it's not the headline story. our government says it was a crash. the Taliban says they shot it down.

    story goes like this: army rangers were in a fire fight with Taliban, they radio for help, somebody loads up 22 navy seals and 16 other people on a Chinook helicopter (which goes about 18mph) and flies them over to help real slow like in front of the Taliban and they shoot it down with a freaking RPG. (or it crashed, coincidentally right where the fire fight was --- BS!).

    wifey and I just got done watching that HBO mini-series, The Pacific and I'm no damn military strategist, but before you fly a slow helicopter in front of the enemy with back-up aboard, don't you lay down some cover fire??? they had mortars 70 years ago they could hone in with a compass and a protractor. For Christ's sake, we could have probably read off some coordinates on a GPS and sent a rocket from a battleship in the Red Sea 700 miles away and took them out. weren't they showing us video from the Gulf War (1991 - 20 years ago) where we were launching scud missiles 500-1000 miles and hitting intended targets in a 40x40 concrete building???

    what am I missing here?

    rant off ///////

    hmmm... wasn't trying to take it down this road. even though, I don't disagree with nuking everybody west of the international date line, I was more upset with the "typical" BS where our government and military leaders use political correctness to fight a war. I don't think any of our troops should be there. WWI, WWII, the first Gulf War... somebody f'd with us, we got in, kicked asses, got out. that's the way to fight war. war sucks. war is not good. period. BUT, if you have to fight one, do it right. This is like Viet Nam all over again. We're going on 8 1/2 years now.

    The point is, 22 of our most elite soldiers were killed because we didn't want to blow the top off that mountainside because there might have been one citizen there. OK, fine, I can accept that, but REALLY? I agree with not blowing up the towns and nuking the whole damn country, but do you really think there's a whole village of women and children holed up with the Taliban in some caves fighting some Army Rangers? WTF?

    Fight the war right and get the fux out. Period.

    Will be a very sad, and long time before you see any soldiers out of Iraq/Afghanistan, ect. All of your votes don't matter, whether you vote or not, "they" behind the scenes control it all, and to be completely honest it is extremely fVcking sad to see how people don't understand what's really going on. You aren't too busy to look a little deeper into things than the mainstream media. Morgans, Rotheschilds, ect all have that all taken care of. You hear what they want you to, but did you hear about this crash all that much? No. Exactly.

    I give every single man and woman fighting for this country a huge deal of respect, you have a lot of balls to do something like that. But, in all honesty, your really apart of something that is very sickening and inhumane.
    You can't control the Elite, nothing you say or do is going to fix ANYTHING of what's going on, this is YEARS UPON YEARS in the making. Knights of the Templar, Masons, all the Round Table groups, Masons, Illuminati. It's no bullsh!t.

    It just amazes me that people claim the US is a christian nation. After hearing the typical person speak about war, and massive amounts of civillians should just be eliminated.

    911 ring a bell?

    December 7th, 1941 we were a christian nation, Hiroshima on Monday August 6th 1945 we were a christian nation, Nagasaki on August 9th 1945 we were a christian nation & August 15, Japan announced its surrender.

    February 1945 the Germans got there's leveling Dresden they were fast learners too.

    Political Correctness killed that crew.

    Your enemy only understands overwhelming demoralizing power that's what my 87 year Father told me just yesterday you see on June 6 1944 he was on Omaha Beach taking fire and wounded in action at the Battle of the bulge to protecting your right to state your views.

    Dude, your fighting a loosing battle when it comes to talking about this subject on this board. I'll bet at least 2/3rds of the peeps on hear feel the same way I do. Let me guess, you want us all (the US and Alkida) to sit around a camp fire holding hands and sing Coom-ba-ya.:)

    Don't lump me into one of your little groups. I don't vote because I know theres more to the picture than meets the eye. Demopublicans, republicrats. It's all the same nonsense.

    I'm reffering to the nuke statements, which you just may agree with. BTW, how are they fighting for my freedom? Seal the borders, and be done with it. A republican failed to shut down the borders on 9/11...

    This war was never about freedom.

    The America you grew up with and learned about is long gone.

    Eisenhower warned us of the military industrial complex, which is now out of control.

    You are witnessing the crumbling of an empire full of greed, corruption and fraud.

    This is nothing new, history shows it happens over and over and over...
