Its one of the silly points about people who write these types of articles; they complain about how we 'invaded' Afghanistan, yet expect us to use the same tactics of 'invading' a country in order to stop the Darfur issue.  Their energy would be better used if they organized a letter-campaign to...

Site would not work for me last night but seems to be working ok now....

Educaton does not equal capability, as has been stated several times on this site.  What your statistics fail to show is her level of failure in many of her political positions.  She did well within the USA but was considered a failure outside of the USA. 1984 - Foreign policy adviser to...

Ack!!  I think youre right...it just gets worse...I think i'll just shut up on this one cause the hole just keeps getting deeper!    :o

Nice map; glad to finally see one thats unclassified!

Very nice guide for when you dont have a janes subscription available!

Jumping back in pages later... First off, anyone whose read some of my posts when I first joined knows that I am the LAST person to think that people with higher education automatically have intelligence or common sense.  I have met, worked with, worked for, or had work for me, too many...

Extrapolated??? That is serious BS when they extrapolate findings based on a crowded downtown sector next to where the former base was.

That is hilarious - these are the kind of stories we need to circulate to counter the actons of so-called educated 'Canadians' who compile false allegatons without evidence.

Youve got to be kidding - I need to hear more about the circumstances. Now, if you WANT to be a private infantryman, despite being better educated than 99% of the people around you, thats fine and good luck to you.  But if you've got the education why arent you applying for an officer...

Complete and utter crap.  Having a PhD and drafting questions does not mean a report is unbiased.  Amazing how all these death threats and assaults were made yet not one 'victim' can identify their attacker or name a name, nor have any of them come forward and made allegations previously to MP's...

EWOT....EWAT... Werent those the guys in that star wars movie...?  ;D There's one now!

Amazing how big a response you can get from poor choice of words.  Unfortunately I live in this riding.  Think I will go by in person next Monday... Other than that its mind-boggling how the word 'terrorist' continues to get used so inappropriately.  And further, that so many people with...

A possibility, but cant say its true without more information. Maybe you are just on the master list of 'Canandians from whom we dont want to hear opinions'?  ;D

I recall that on my 1988 Cyprus tour, a lot of the younger officers (platoon commanders) were rotated out of country every three months!

I read up on the profile of Steven Preece, and yes that person published two books, one about the marines and one about being a ninja. The problem is that your writing style has too much in common with some of the 'trollers' who are 18 and dont know what they are talking about.  Now if you...

Far as I know that is true. Old tales speak of one-year army tours back in the 1960's and 1970's but the UN standard was set for all participating in 'peacekeeping' missions. I agree that a six-month mission is easier on families, but must admit that many other countries deploy their soldiers...

Ack! Another thread tossed onto the bonfire of 'conspiracy theory' ridicule... It would be an interesting subject to debate, as everybody probably has at least one 'spooky-time' story.  However, I dont belive Steve is genuine.  Three thumbs, sure, but as soon as he starts talking about 'one of...

Right alongside those other classics, 'Eau De Wet Dog', and 'Eau De Soldier in the Field for 3 Weeks With No Shower'. Ack!  :P

I was thinking the same question a few months ago when i saw it happen with some other threads!  Forgot about it then, but now my curiosity is satisfied...
