Quite the opposite, lethal radiation poisoning can take days or even weeks to finish you off and don't expect to get too many bone marrow transplants in those circumstances.

True, but even those 50s/60s relics go really really fast in latter parts of the flight and those missile defence systems dont excatly have an impressive track record (IMHO). The message it would send would more likely be "build more." EDIT: If the test launch would be successful it would also bring something new to the Iran situtation since N. Koreans are'nt excatly too squeamish about selling these kind of things..

With what? This is not your grandmother's scud we are talking about here.

Party like it was the sixties again.

What can you say, chaos is an ideal soil for taleban wannabes.

And they probably pay more than 3,6 euros a day too.

From what I have heard from certain friends who went to the FDF that sigs is mostly sitting behind a desk eating donuts and reading comic books.

Must be a team america fan whoever came up with the song..

It was about time we got this thread pinned. Either planning to do some CADding or finding the most spectacular way to waste your money.

At least there will be no-one lobbying for e-mail tax. Just imagine what damage your average spammer worm would do. And yeah, bashing the US regarding this issue is pretty stupid considering how badly our own goverments are screwing us over internet issues (data retention anyone?).

I have watched quite a few bits about those massacres and I have yet to see any iraqi bodies. I don't know about the german media though. Anyways, I think Denoir's "cops and robbers" comparison fits here well, people find police brutality and corruption much more interesting/shocking than say what your average hoodlum would do.

What? We get to read daily about insurgents suicide bombing civilians and footage is shown quite often of people running scared shitless and pillars of smoke.

And also factor in the fact that those parts are a lot cheaper in the US too.

Considering that those things cost less than 50 bucks i'd say who cares.. Having owned three ATI cards in a row recently I wholeheartedly agree.

1700 buckaroos seems kind of expensive considering it does not come even with a monitor.

What about fighting the most powerful conventional military force in the world? And yeah, the world truly is a better place with one fanatical looney less trying to kill people who do not subscribe to his narrow ideas.

Has Iran? I think the whole point of getting nuclear weapons is that you can threaten with them after getting a sizeable arsenal.. not before you have them.

In couple of days it will be the 25th anniversary of osirak, mission successful in hours, only 11 deaths and no downed planes. Just beatiful.

No argument there. Correct me if I am wrong but was'nt it introduced in 2002? I am sure that the issue will be brought up again again and again before elections as long as the public opinion makes it profitable.

I think that is excatly my point, the gay marriage thingie comes out of the closet (shitty pun intended) every time approval ratings take a nose dive and/or it's election time. Yes I have.

Apart from looking at the calendar there's one sure way to tell it's an election year in the US.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/5044428.stm Wonder if they truly want it passed, no more pandering to the wackos and the log cabin types would find lying to themselves even harder.

I warmly invite those US congressmen to take a walk in bagdad NOT surrounded by delta operators. Any bets how long until it's BBQ time?

Anything but finnish.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/5003220.stm So how many countries are they going to form out of the ruins of Yugoslavia, think I lost count already. Now if we could get Ĺland to secede..

Our goverments are unwilling to invest in nukers (proven technology) to reduce oil depedency.. some experimental technology seems even more far off.
