I love it when a pseudo-intellectual confuses "thinking for yourself" and outright cowardice.
American and British forces do have more in common with the jihadists than with you. The difference is a pair of balls.
I hate milk-sopped bread.
It just falls apart and isn't worth a damn to anyone.

I haven't met a soldier in either the British or Australian army who hasn't joined in the last decade to kill 'pakis' and 'ragheads'
Actually I have, but they've always been Fijians. Everyone else in these armys are bigots and racists. That's the truth.
The fact is phatpackage, if you were an Iraqi, you'd support the 'insurgents' and be against the invading forces.
People like you don't think for yourself, you follow nationalistic government lines.
What the Taliban and British, American troops etc have in common is that they're both ipso facto terrorists, by the law of language.
Really? Well I have members of my family who have served in the British forces & others who are currently serving in The Australian armed forces & I can tell now they have never mentioned the racial terms you have claimed above & joined to serve their country & are far from being racist! They married people of different races! Debunked you there!. Seems like you do not actually know many service men & women at all! By the way you are the one brandishing those "race/religion" hatred terms not me, so what does that say about you!
So everyone except Fijians in the forces are bigots & racists? look above debunked that one! It ain't no truth!
yeah you are right! That is because I am loyal to where I come from and our Allies!. I'm on the coalition side you yes I am proud of the troops effort & will defend them to the hilt!
Really! "people like you" Now that's a little judgmental, Ok but I am the most free thinking individual individual you are ever likely to encounter - Don't care what you say! Now that is a fact. I fully support the troops & all the Allies, they are war heroes & I am respectful & grateful for their efforts!
Now that is a pretty low & cheap shot at the troops! Relating it to the thread title the troops (past & present) are all heroes! Who cares what you think about unjust wars ....... Fact is they are just & that's the truth. The people are all heroes & should be treated accordingly. The very fact you can wrongly call them terrorists is not only a disgrace but is testament they are fighting for your freedom from the Muslim extremist who would never allow you to voice your opinion. To the troops, Thank You & respect! I'm pretty sure they don't care what the likes of you think or say about them!
You've debunked nothing
ESPECIALLY in the Australian army!
If these men actually "believe" in what they are doing then they are deluded fools. As are you.
You aren't loyal to where you're from. You're a traitor to your nations sovereignty. Supporting a government that pisses away its own freedom and bows at the feet of the British Monarcy. Call yourself a patriot? Ha!
How you sleep at night is beyond me.
LMAO, were you listening to Land of Hope & Glory while typing this ad hominem drivel?
There is nothing heroic about picking up a gun and fighting for the state. Only a fool would idolise these contract killers.
Really now you are racist towards Australian Diggers Hmmmmmmmm! maybe the mods should see that ... But anyway I'm not a dobber!
Aw Jeez using personal attacks because you are losing the debate! These are great people, heroes! Delusional lol lol lol. You won't get me to snap because my argument is solid no matter what you say! The troops deserve our respect not to be ridiculed!
Laugh all you want! I am a patriot to my country & I'm half British so I support the monarchy as well! Traitor, well thats pretty stupid I support my country, the troops & the government. Only in your mind is this being a traitor lol lol. At least I do not have to resort to profanity in my posts! Just shows how limited your vocabulary actually is!
i'll bet I sleep a lot better than you! My conscience is clear!
Contract killers? Hmmm "clutching at straws" there you have been thoroughly debunked! Hmmmm what now more racial abuse & personal attacks! Totally irrelevant to the thread!edit on 1-1-2011 by phatpackage because: (no reason given)
Are North Korean soldiers heroes? What about enemy soldiers,
F*cking heroes they were, ay?
More of my freedoms have been stolen from me in the name of preventing terrorism, than from actual external forces.
Don't be scared little one

I don't think I've ever listened to anyone so completely wrong.
No, if I were born in Afghanistan, I wouldn't be sitting in a cave planning what is basically murder.
But I have zero problem exterminating those who would attack the weak, the faltering, the defenseless, and as much as I hate the idea - yes, even the gutless stupid.
No one ever figures to be really good at combat. No one can test or anticipate those who seem to have a knack for efficiency in combat.
One can want to be a soldier, or just find oneself a soldier, but no way to actually realize your talents until it's an accomplished task.
But I do respect all those who take their turn on the walls, and yes, the far-archers. They do things others can't do.
They get their hands dirty for those without any redeeming qualities whatsoever - can't bring themselves to do.
Don't worry. None of us who would stand firm would EVER want anyone of your ilk anywhere near us. We must have folks who have guts, who can stand, and will be there at your shoulder no matter how bad it gets.
In combat, a man can do more living in 30 minutes than the gutless can do their entire lives.
And if you survive it - forevermore, every breath is sweet as it is borrowed. Provided you by the exertions and sacrifice of your brothers.
Another thing you'd never know anything about.
I'm still waiting for an argument in favour of soldiers being heroes. Still.
I suppose in their country they are heroes! To the other side well ....... you know "one mans war hero ......" I am entitled to choose a side! Don't care what you say lol lol
More profanity! What can I say!
Well maybe you need to talk the extremist muslims (Note I did not say moderate or non practicing) who have forced the hands of government around the world to react. It is called "Barking up the wrong tree".
Aw Shucks getting physical now! Truth be told I ain't that little!!!!!!!!!! It's getting really old how about you get back to thread, don't blame governments or "Illegal war" jazz & talk about the troops as individuals & not in racist terms or using profanity.
Despite what you say they are not on the whole sheep, they are not deluded, they are not bigots and they are not racists! You continually paint them as a whole with the same brush. Some might be guilty of what you say but the majority are not & to say so is discrimination! Respect & gratitude for their efforts - True War Heroes!

You have come in late on the thread! Read the earlier posts it's all there! I ain't gonna hold your hand!
Just watching you hang yourself with massive breaches of the ATS T&C with regards to personal attacks, profanity & discriminating words against Australians! I don't have to report you they see it all! lol lol lol
All this because I have a different opinion to you!edit on 2-1-2011 by phatpackage because: (no reason given)
