Congrats! The medical in TO are interesting, especially the cognitive tests. Enjoy IAP/BOTP  ;D

Yes but those idea's were held by powerful nations rivaling that of the US. There was a level playing field. Here, we have radical Islamists with no real military, living off of charity from other countries and yet, they pose a great threat?

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=50524 I guess he values world opinion when it suits his anti-gay marriage agenda. I love the title of one of his articles: The Islamic threat is greater than German and Soviet threats were Could this guy be anymore right-wing?

Going slightly off topic here, but has anyone here tried a protein-carb drink during their training? http://www.t-nation.com/readTopic.do?id=1173228 A good mix is 15g of protein with 30g carbs in 500ml of water. I tried this during soccer practice and gym workouts and noticed an improvement...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't CBC owned by the government? Since our current conservative governmnent supports Israel's actions how can you associate CBC with the left? Perhaps it's due to the fact that other news sources are so far right that relatively neutral news source such as CBC...

St.Jean is near Montreal  ;D

Tomahawk, can you list the source that says Hezbollah was 400 yards away? According to BBC, Israel was told by the UN troops to stop bombing in their area. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/5217176.stm Hopefully, someone will be held accountable - accident or not. RIP soldiers  :salute:

Very interesting. Great contribution guys! CanadaPhil, I'm trying to put aside my bias by starting this thread. I'll admit that everytime I saw pro-Israeli/anti-Palestinian post, I would have a sudden knee-jerk, emotionally charged reaction to respond. I felt sorry for the Palestinians and had...

Alright guys/girls, the rules are posted. 1917 is the start date. Here is the official Balfour declaration: Foreign Office November 2nd, 1917 Dear Lord Rothschild, I have much pleasure in conveying to you, on behalf of His Majesty's Government, the following declaration of sympathy with...

Wes, I'll try to be polite. This thread was made to discuss the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict, not your own middle-eastern rant. That's how the flaming starts. Well, it looks like everyone has a different take on when the conflict started. The way I see it though, prior to 1917, Jews and...

Remember, we're talking about the Arab-Jewish (or Israeli) conflict. We can go back a couple thousand years if we want to trace Judaism to it's roots. But again, I'm no history major. Do you have any particular starting date that you'd recommend?

Since it seems like everyone is interested in what's happening in the middle east right now, I decided that we should all step back in time and look at the root cause of this crisis. Forget Hezbollah, the captured soldiers or the Palestinian situation. Let's go back even before Israel was...

I brought this up because I was unable to access www.army.ca. I tried over a period of 2 hours and was unsuccessful (I was able to access other sites during this time). Since banning typically involves IP blocking, I installed an anonomizer utility designed to mask my IP. Lo and behold, I can...

Is this because I didn't cite my sources in the Lebanon/Israeli thread? Why didn't I receive a warning?

Wow Paracowboy, that sure is an informative, objective, unbiased opinion you posted  ::) Great photos too! Look, those terrorist scumbags are using those terrorist loving civilians as human shields! Boy those crazy civies sure had it coming.

You can find it here in PDF format:  http://daccessdds.un.org/doc/UNDOC/GEN/N04/498/92/PDF/N0449892.pdf?OpenElement Well the UN is `gravely concerned`about the continued presence of armed militia in Lebanon. The also call for the disbanding and disarming of all Lebanese and non-Lebanese...

Straight from Amnesty International: In Lebanon, it is civilians who are paying the heaviest price of the Israeli bombing campaign. At least 200 civilians, including dozens of children, are reported to be among some 215 Lebanese killed by Israeli air strikes in Lebanon since 12 July. In the...

Hmmm let`s see.....nearly 300 civilians killed and massive destruction to civilian infrastructure over the last week in Lebanon. You call that defense? I call it a massacre.

Interesting article from an alternative news source. Israel Takes a Stupid Pill By Larry C. Johnson, Booman Tribune Posted on July 17, 2006, Printed on July 18, 2006 http://www.alternet.org/story/39081/ Apparently not content to let the US do a self-immolation act in the Middle East by...

A Warrant told me the CF was planning on paying attached posted members TD pay ($17.30/day) for both married and singles. Is that what you're talking about? Not sure when exactly that will fall through but hopefully soon seeing as I just got an apartment in downtown Montreal.....crawling...
