Indeed.  As well, the IDF is starting to place Trophy systems on its Merkava's and is developing Iron Fist.  The U.S is developing Quick Kill. Yikes!

Does the Merkava have better armour than the Challenger 2.  As during the Second Gulf War a MILAN fired by Iraqis just bounced off the Challenger 2.

Can't you need the security council to do that and China and Russia have veto power.

The West said it was over.  The Russians never did.  They are sneaky that way. 

So the 32 propaganda tapes he made with the Vietnamese didn't let his comrades down? He said those very things in the 32 propaganda tapes.  Perhaps you are right.  Maybe he was never offered a chance to leave.    Why let a huge propaganda prize leave? 

Some proof of this would be nice.  Otherwise it sounds suspiciously like the ole Republican vitriolic standard that the Democrats are really commies.  How does Obama demonstrate a preference for the command economy?  If we want to get really nasty about who is actually a commie we could ask...

Many apologies.  I am behind the times.  ;D

Heck it is America if you can't make your own money and lots of it you are a bad American. 

Indeed.  Especially when that money comes with an insanely hot wife.  ;D

I realize this.  However, my point was that Obama earned his money himself.  The same cannot be said for McCain.

So just because McCain is older that makes him more qualified?  I question this.  McCain is not the self-made man that Obama is.  He was fortunate to come from a wealthy family.  His father and grandfather were both Admirals in the U.S Navy.  He married rich too.  As Ross Perot who had been...

Sure.  But, I don't see McCain, aside from his fight with Big Tobacco, having a lot of domestic experience.  He is more of a foreign policy guy, which is good, but I think he is vulnerable on domestic issues, like the economy.  McCain is also not very decisive.  He could have picked his VP...

What exactly is McCain's experience?  I keep hearing that he is more qualified.  Is this by virtue of his age?  The amount of time he spent in the Senate?  Because, McCain has had no executive level experience-just like Obama.   

Thanks for this.  It's appreciated. 

Quite.  I think Trudeau's elitism was clear in that he refer to opponents from the low-middle class as 'eaters of hotdogs.'  Now I for one will always proudly eat hotdogs!

I agree to some degree.  However, there was an intense pride by Chrétien that his older brother had served in the CF during the Second World War.  I just think Chretien thought that in a time of deficit that the military should be a very low priority.  Whether this was fair considering the...

Then I am not sure what you were trying to ask. As opposed to Bush ripping up the ABM?  Or placing missiles in Eastern Europe?  Or recognizing Kosovo? No it is completely different.  The 'made in China' goods are not actually Chinese goods, they are western goods that happen to be produced...

Why do you equate the west with America?  Surely they are not the same? I think the immense Russian demand for western luxury goods and other cultural aspects answers your question.  Russians don't hate the west as much as you think they do.       

What?

I would disagree-my post has nothing to do with the peace movement.  I never said Canada should not be in Afghanistan, all I am saying is that Canada through a hissy fit when the Russians invaded in 1979 and that the west can be at times quite hypocritical.  We are allowed intervene but noone...
