You had me up until this post. Could you elaborate a bit?

60 Years Later Considering Hiroshima. by Victor Davis Hanson National Review Online For 60 years the United States has agonized over its unleashing of the world's first nuclear weapon on Hiroshima on August 6, 2005. President Harry Truman's decision to explode an atomic bomb over an ostensible...

Thanks for the replies guys, I don't know what the volume of this pack is but I do know that it's pretty big, pretty heavy and has some problems with the suspension system. Through a friend I managed to borrow ten or so of these prototypes for a Cambrian team a few years back. I think all but...

These pics are a bit crap, they were taken with an old digital camera that was pretty shite. I have a few more pics if anyone is interested but they are about the same quality. Edited to add: Here's the photobucket account: "http://photobucket.com/albums/b277/AndrewKent/?start=all" <img...

Pappy, Nice floor. Slate? What you've posted there looks like the ruck Gregory made for a Canadian client which I think is the SPEAR ruck. If I recall correctly they purchased them without too much operator input and a lot of hte guys weren't too happy with them.  I recall seeing a smaller one...

They make my bag sweaty. Edited to add: Except for the neck I like the long undershirt, but the shorts and long underpants I don't like.

Sorry CFL, I thought you would be able to figure it out on your own, this basically means that bidding for the manufacturing of the new ruck is now open. Yukon, you have it partially right except that you've omitted the selection portion of the process. Bidding closes in Sept which is when the...

Good post Edward, I like your proposal, however, to steal a quote from another board, "unless we believe in our product, believe in our own way of life and convince ourselves that it is worth defending, there is scant chance of convincing anyone to do the same." I think there are a lot of...

How have I judged the liberals and what does the Gomerey inquirey have to do with this issue?

I heard Karl Rove invented militant Islam.

"'Our young people, we can't control," Aly Hindy, the head of Scarborough's Salaheddin Islamic Centre" Personally I take this as a threat. He and the rest of the Muslim leadership in Toronto better start controlling their young people. They may want to start by speaking out publically about...

I think you should perhaps reread your own posts...

How is it "more" possible? edited to add: Actually Brit, you won't convince me of much until you use rational argument. Calling Rove names and alluding to dirty tricks etc. doesn't do anything to convince me that he has done anything wrong in htis case. It seems to me that with anything Bush...

AHA! Now we know the truth, it's all a Repuplican conspiracy. Republican/right wing conspiracies exist but Democrat/left wing conspiricies don't I guess. If you don't believe that the leftist viewpoint is over represented in mainstream media could it be possible it's because you are a leftist...

Ahhh now it's all starting to make sense! I would do the same thing in your shoes Pappy!

Actually Mark Steyn wrote a pretty good piece about that very point Hatchet Man. If I get some time I'll look for it. If you have some time check out his website, it is probably there.

Yes I saw the photocopy of what is purported to be the endorsed cheque on the CBC. I also saw the interview with the fellow who allegedly gave him the cheque. Fortunately we have as sytem in this country to determine if the evidence is real, fabricated, or non existant. For all I know he is...

Infanteer, To reply to your points, 1. "He mentions that the people within Communist regimes did more to destroy Communism than the West." The way I look at it Communism died not due to outside pressure but due to the choices the people within the countries and systems made. Star Wars wouldn't...

Thanks both of you for the replies, the question was directed more towards the posts that infanteer referred to. Here is a post from a different board (Belmont Club) that I find fairly convincing. " TigerHawk said... If it commits brutal offenses such as this, what is the source of al Qaeda's...
