Most of my pictures are only of the newer areas. I bought a cheap disposible camera there from one of the shops near the Gold Souk and they didn't turn out too well. I may have pictures of the palm island. From my hotel room you could see one of them under construction.

Yeah so we got shot at and shot back, Its not like we roll outside the wire to go kill someone. Not even the first time I was here did we do that, 9 out of 10 of our partols were to check on things like Daswani village (Village of Hope the Military paid for and built, then rebuilt after insurgents blew it up) Or Set up dental clinics and pull security for the medics while they treated the kurds saddam tried to starve to death and torture... you sir dont know me. I hate Weakness and Cowards, People that quit when things get tough is another biggie, and people who cry foul when something dont go they'er way truely upsets me....you dont like me? then Fine STFU and leave me alone. I have yet to attack you on a personal level so dont assume you know me or why the fuck im here in Iraq. Get off your ass and make a change dont cry about the indecency of it all while you are at home sitting in a warm room with fresh water and internet.
You don't know Cameron very well then. He doesn't get angry, and he doesn't call groups of people ethnic slurs, which I'm sure you do, given your love of the Arabs. I can see why you'd want to go to Iraq though, kill as many as you can right?CannonFodder11b wrote:

Correct me if I am wrong but none of the western armies over there are supporitng extermination of any race or religion are they? In contrast you will find many Imams support exactly that.
Like it or not this war is coming to the west. Islam is not going to just play nice if we all give up and walk away. They are going to continue to kill every non Muslim they find and then they are going to kill each other over Shia vs. Suni. Thats all they know!

Dubai is ruled by Emir Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum. They aren't very fond of democracy there, but from my visit there and what I've found from other sources is that the royal families in the Emirates have the interests of the people in mind, unlike a certain other country to the north of them where the royal family is rather hit or miss with that.
It's not something that could happen overnight. Being treated humanely would have to start. Hamas would need to have at the very least a ceasefire, Israel would need to stop running around in Palestinian lands. The US would need to provide a significant amount of aid to Palestine (take it from the military aid to Isreal) to help rebuild and get a decent infrastructure in place. Al-Quds/Jerusalem should be put under control of a neutral 3rd party (Switzerland or a new body comprised of atheists, since Israel thinks the UN hates them.) Create some feasible connection between Gaza and the West Bank. Find some way where they don't have to like each other, or really talk to each other, but where they can live next to each other without wanting to kill each other.oug wrote:

So, try your hand at reasoning why Palestine can't live in peace with Israel.
And, if you can't provide a logical answer, I guess that just means Palestine can live in peace with Israel.
I honestly think that they're capable of it, but Israel needs to start treating the Palestinians like humans and the Palestinians will have to be able to let things go.

So, what do you think; can the U.S. foster elections, but rightly cry foul when terrorists are elected?
Can Israel be blamed for the bombings in Beirut?
Can we deal with elected terrorist like nothing ever happened, and if we are suppossed to, should a requirement of that be that they let bygones be bygones in regards to Israel?
#1 No. Flagrant hypocrisy. It only reinforces the image that the US only cares about democracy when it is in its own interests.
#2 I would say that's really stretching it. The Mossad has been behind some big setups but that's far too extensive.
#3 Like nothing ever happened? No. Hypothetically if we were, it would require a lot of cooperation from a lot of parties that wouldn't want to let it go. Hezbollah would probably be easier to let go as an organization and deal with however, but when it comes down to Israel and Palestine, it's always going to be about ownership of the land and rights of the people.
