Apparently you haven't read the thread. I commented on the Krazy Korporal's speech already. Post #44 http://www.defence.pk/forums/world-affairs/147770-hitlers-speech-they-dont-want-you-listen-3.html You leaped immediately into a debate fallacy... can't address my points, so you shriek...

Sorry A_B, I have to call you on this... This whole stupid thing was shoved down our throats, with the roots of it all in 1991, Saddam & Kuwait. With the implosion of the USSR, essentially a "victory" in a cold war that was actually pretty hot for those who fought and died in multiple proxy...

Leave it to "Desert Fox", the not-so-closet Nazi admirer, to pipe up... Reinhard Heydrich Just a good ol' Nazi doing his job. Right? When Heydrich was killed by Partisans, the enlightened German leadership took their revenge. On the Heydrich attack: Poland: Need I go on? There are...

You know me? You know my Son, my daughter, my wife? You don't know jack. Your rant is 10X as racist as anything I've heard from any "whitey" on this forum. Post WW2 - We occupied Japan and Germany. According to you, we would have expended time and energy in rebuilding only Germany. Japan we...

Many years ago I was a glider instructor... it is a very pure form of flight, and a LOT of fun, as the goal is to use thermals and other sources of rising air as energy to remain aloft. One of the great challenges is glider cross-country flying. It's one thing to stay within gliding range of...

Tastes and styles change. Look at paintings by Rubens: The women are all a bit plump. Back then, this was beauty. A woman with weight had the financial means to feed herself and others. She was successful in life. Rubens --> "Rubenesque" or plump.

Much appreciated. I have made an effort to learn more about Muslim Holy days. I want to reciprocate when it is appropriate.

How can you not love scientists like these? It is a testimony to our species that a few brilliant people can understand all of this, while the rest of us nod our heads and go "Yup, yup, Higgs Boson, gives mass using strong force, great stuff." In all seriousness, I do admire them. They are...

I'm out of time today but I'll try to get to this tomorrow evening. Thanks.

History will show the F-16 to probably be the most successful manned jet fighter made... a combination of capability, maintainability, and cost. It'll be in tough competition with the MiG-21 for that honor. It's not numbers alone, it's the platform taken as a whole. They'll be flying...

You agreed to all 150 posts in this thread? Or to the notion that Al Jazeera is a paid adjunct to the USA propaganda effort? Welcome to the forum, BTW.

Google "Taliban Propaganda Watch" for more...

I like Paul's "small government" model. I like 80% of his foreign policy in that the U.S. needs to pull back and allow world events to run their course without interference. A rock solid DEFENSE is what we need. But Paul has a few ideas that are truly loony and he is unelectable. As far as...

Oh please, spare us from rhetoric like this. "We're fighting the Bolsheviks!! Not the average Russian!!" Unfortunately 20 million of them perished under a vicious "scorched earth" policy. The following should shed some light on German race mentality. Consider: When British, French, U.S. and...

Fox, those units were cannon-fodder for the Reich. Germany felt no great affection for them, and considered them second-rate. Their numbers increased dramatically in 1944 when Germany knew they were going to lose.

No realistic person would say his argument is valid. The Taliban were our enemy in 2001 and remain our enemy. Of course officials in the Obama administration are going to attempt to defend him. They aren't going to throw him under the bus over that particular gaffe. I am no friend of the...

I can state with 100% certainty that the U.S. KIA and casualty lists are accurate. I've heard people claim "10,000+ U.S. dead" and that the true number is being hidden. This is impossible... Soldier deaths are public knowledge and cannot be hidden. As for the rest, yeah it's a propaganda war...

Obama is a fool who has no clear vision. His foreign affairs maneuvering is juvenile. Domestically, not much better, with disastrous financial decisions causing mayhem. Our pop culture has made traits like smooth talking and nice suits more important than intellect when we select our...

Some typical Taliban Propaganda: If you read the Taliban Propaganda Watch, you'll discover than 25,000+ invaders are KIA and thousands of tanks destroyed. Basically, if a HUMVEE throws a rod, the Taliban will claim it.

:rolleyes:
