    The Defence Budget [superthread]

    Their own argument of Canada "spending the 7th most" in all of NATO is torpedoed, at least in my opinion, with providing the fact that we are spending 24th on percentage of GDP. Its a ridiculous argument.

    New Reservists applying for tour-STFU

    Careful not to insert us fragile Reservist folk into the rain. We get lumpy and squishy and tend to wither away. Look, black clouds! Quick everyone, we need to get back to the hot mod tents before the waterproof Regs show up! Its true, we don't like going on exercises. There is the awful...

    Cremated Taliban as Psy-Op Tool?

    I won't call you a "retard", but I'll ask you where you're coming from. Did I ever mention a difference between Americans and Canadians? Last time I checked in this, no, I didn't. But what I will do, is give the majority of Afghans the benefit of the doubt and say that they will recognize the...

    "Imperial Grunts" by Robert Kaplan

    Excellent book. Had it three days, haven't had tons of time to read it but...excellent. I'm on the chapter about the Phillipines. Talk more about it later.

    Cremated Taliban as Psy-Op Tool?

    Other than a completely retarded argument there, Goldsmith, couple things. 1) We (Canada) have nothing to do with Gitmo, and even less to do with Abu Ghraib. 2) Comparing the Soviets and the US in the same sentence is laughable. At best. Keep working at it.

    Cremated Taliban as Psy-Op Tool?

    So, they gave the nearby Muslim locals a chance to come, get the dead, and bury them in religious fashion. They receive a big negatory in return. The villagers were given the chance to come and retrieve the deceased. Since they did not, they can't complaing about the treatment.

    Tension in Barents Sea

    According to Norwegian news, there is now four vessels engaged in chasing the 'Elektron'. The possibility to fire upon the ship is still available, but the high seas appear to be unco-operative. ITAR-TASS and Russian news are apparently also claiming that the Norwegians have fired on the trawler...

    Commuter Cringe driving along the Gardiner in Toronto.

    Ack. Guys, I wasn't even thinking about using blanks for salutes. I guess that was too obvious. Carry on.

    Commuter Cringe driving along the Gardiner in Toronto.

    Huh. Well, the more you know. I personally think it would look ridiculous, what with the BFA and all. But to each their own. Unless the .303 doesn't have a big, yellow metal piece...

    Why would you have blanks for a parade? Someone explain that to me.

    Commuter Cringe driving along the Gardiner in Toronto.

    Not true. Surprisingly. With the TorScots, we can do ruck / FFO marches along the waterfront (including right in front of Ontario Place) with C7s and there has never been a problem. Sure, its usually dark out and not that many people in the area, but still, never had problems.. Hell, we've...

    A music video you won't see on MTV or VH1

    Oh, good comeback. Truly inspired. I enjoyed your use of current events to tie in with the punchline. Look at how you wrote that. Not how you REWROTE it in your oh, so snappy rebuttle. You never state a distinction in your wish of a "wakeup" call. From what you wrote, a wakeup call IS a...

    A music video you won't see on MTV or VH1

    Excuse me? Are you CONDONING or even WISHING for a terror attack on Canada? Jesus, I dislike the leftists and media as much as the next guy...but never, ever would I wish that my point of view be substantiated with the blood of my countrymen. ::)
