in iraq and afganistan the US and UK (and other countries, such as Canada and Poland whos brave soldiers are often forgoten) are not fighting terrorists. Â There fighting insurgents and militia who are trained and as deadly as any proffessional army. Â There cunning, brave and smart, there not the turban wearing blow up a bus people your making them out to be. Â Before we can beat them we need to respect them as an enemy and develop new tactics to cope with evolving warfare. Â America seems unable to do this since it cant use napalm and agent orange anymore like it did in nam' when faced with a similarly determined insurgency. Â oo theres a good comparison, do you call the vietcong terorrists? how dare they complain when they used britian as an stop of point for illegal weapons that killed hundreds of inocent civilians. ill share with peopel somthing though. Its good too see the next generation of Israelis are open minded and conciderate to other religion and there arab neighbors. These pictures show Israeli children sending presents to Lebanese children

ummm no, its becuase of airport security. Â The chances of catching bombers at airports is far higher than catching him before he steps anywhere near it. Â So in that way it acts as a deterent, hence trains being the new target which most countires dont seem to be worrying about. Â (what with india,london,madrid and now the foiled german threat) but they could argue that Israel aquired bombs of the USA, some of which were illegal (cluster bombs).

Who is being a terrorist now? I don't know why israel started digging this huge public relations grave for itself. It's a shame Sharon is out of office, he was really starting to see reason. absolutly, sacrificing his popularity with the israeli people for the common good.

that comes from haaretz , an israeli news broadcaster of some sort i think?? Â so stop complaing that the lebonease army arnt there yet, they got another week to get there. Â Plus already deploying.

its sad, people watch too much TV, i come to the conclusion that anyone speaking arabic is a terrorist. Its disgracful.

from the new screens the smoke effects are looking awsome. though id just say that.

the problem with that is america still over produces and there is large amounts of inflation for cropts. Thats why the goverment still subsideses thousands of farmers to burn there crops/livestock. Alot of farmers cant afford even cheap labour at the moment.

hmm . .It's either you a memmber of a terrorist organization or just Naive. Let's see you say the same thing about Al-Quaida... oh, here we go, just becuase you dont side with Israel your somhow a terrorist. I think that really shows us who is Naive

and why have Israel arrested the deputy prime minister of palastine? Its basicly holding him hostage for no good rason

so you seroisly expected HBA just to pack up and go? Â the lebonease army is moving to the south so they playing there role in the cease fire. Â But now israel has compromised the hole international peace keeping force, which is going there in Israels interests, not HBA's. Â Thats why more is noted about Israel breaking the treaty. Why would countries agree to go and peacekeep when Israel might just bomb HBA and cause more trouble, making there troops there vunerable.

And how, exactly, is the US going to "improve" Mexico's government? The massive corruption can't be eliminated without major reform, and the officials who profit from the corruption aren't about to attack that same corruption. Since Mexico is essentially flushing its poor and dissatisfied into the US before they can make trouble, then perhaps tightening the border will keep more of those dissatisfied Mexicans in their own country, where they could create some internal change. Otherwise, the US would have to resort to external change, and I highly doubt that would be an especially pretty spectacle (Remember what happened when the US tried to change Iraq's government?). Stopping illegal immigration is impossible, but we can certainly slow it down. thats the problem, americans are always looking to say how other peoples democracy is bad. Perhaps it wouldnt be so corrupt if it wasnt in such debt and the country had less problems. and also keep in mind, the american government is by no way corruption free, big corporations have a massive influence. im not a conspiacy nut , its just true in most countires.

today israeli special forces made a raid into lebonen, clearly breaking the ceasefire terms. There is no question of them breaking it or not, they have. the question that remains is why? saw loosers? perhaps...

delays = time for me to raise money for new pc. you have made itleast one OFP fan happy BIS

it can be both. there different things

now you show us your stupid buddy, you didn't understand what we are talking about - ACU "no important" details will have impact on gameplay go take some sleep  Did you miss his   ? They mean he's being sarcastic..... Critizising a post for misreading when one is misreading himself. Oh, the irony! The humiliation! I still think it's a trivial detail. Sure, it'd be nice if they did it perfect, but I'd rather have to time spent on optimizing the code, making the AI better, moving the release date backwards or whatnot. Not to mention the CPU-load it'd take to make a truly dynamic camoflauge. If so, you can kiss those company-sized battles goodbye. Any sane person knows what to pick in this situation. exactly, even if we are disapointed, its nothing the community cant fix. however, coding the engine and improving ai will be alot harder for the communtiy to fix so you have to let BIS get it right instead of the units.

true, but the media hype it up beyone belief. In the UK the media has a fit over polish immigrants. Infact, if it was for them working and contributing to our economy then would be in a worse situation. Immigrents (legal) significantly contribute to developed countires economys, they do the work that natives are not willing to do.

america is made up of basiccly loads of differnt groups of immigrants. I genuinly cant see how any american has a problem with it.

true, but a faster arising problem is the espanic (if thats spelt right) population, whom are even lower on the social ladder than blacks. And in this case it isnt the south, but the west.

there resisting against british rule Â

yes, Napolian was faciast to a degree, yet he is a french hero.

its hard for me not to when i have visited all over the USA. Â Out of everwhere i have been Alabama stood out as particularly poor (for equal rights not in wealth). Â Whereas a place like New York or San Diego has much more equality.

all i know is several years ago i visited Alabama and in a cafe one black gentlemen moved seats when we came in. Â We told him to sit back down and he refused. Â He was genuinly afraid of what might happen to him if he did. Â to me that shows that there stil racism and a fear made towards the black population. Â Its no official "jim crow" law, but still de facto segregation. Â You cant just change laws and expect it to work, people opinion needs to be changed.

no, but how dare they claim it as a valid reason for being there. Â Its just bound to cause trouble, people saying they belong there beauase there religion says they do, Â how is thaat going to go down with the native arabs? Â What israel seem not to understand that the land they claim is 'theres' is in fact the centre and hot bed for all 3 of the top european religions. (Judaism, Christianity, Islam)

you wouldnt loose 90%. Â you would loose the south. Â People living in the north and wast coast have seen the effect of guns on culture, what with the rise in gangster crime, spurred on with gun culture, and shocking massicres, like the springfield school shootings. Â If anything you would gain some voters in the north and loose voters in the south. The constitution has been changed countless times over the centuries, and with good reason. If the US would have stuck to the original copy, blacks and women still wouldn't have suffrage...

why do people have to have a state to call it there homeland? many people can live in an area that they call home, despite the state beign of a differnt culture, religion and language. It comes back to the fact that Israel are just as racist and arrogent as the arab states.
