BF2S Forums U.S. deaths in Iraq exceed 9-11 count

Amen

Yes its sad but we all volunteered to serve our country to the fullest. Its just sad that alot of soldiers, airmen, sailors and marines arent alive this Christmas. To all of my fellow soldiers, marines, sailors and airmen at deployed locations I wish you all a Happy Holidays and hope and pray that you all return home safe to your loved ones. I will be joining you all again this time next year. For the 5th time .

God bless each and every one of them for their willingness to volunteer and for their sacrifice.   My condolences to their families who have an empty seat at the table during this holiday season.

My condolences to the family of all military personnel killed serving in a volunteer force. 

Where is the enemy death count?  Oh wait providing numbers that portray anything but your anti-war, anti bush, and anti america attitude is prohibited here.  Oh wait its not....

I'm sorry to hear this. They volunteered for one single man's ambitions and have lost their lives in the action. I hope it ends soon - it's so pointless.

no body volunteered for any single mans ambition.  a lot of us in the military have been serving since the clinton days.

Yep, a fact that a lot of people on this board seem to not understand.  Maybe it is beacuse they are too young.  Anyway, I joined in 1995 way before 9/11 and Bush.

9/11 was one day, the war has been over three years. How can you compare?


I wish for a speedy return as well.

   My deepest condolences go out this holiday season to those who have lost loved ones in 9-11 and in Iraq. May the bloodshed come quickly to an end and may the rest of our soldiers come home safe.

OK,
1. OLD NEWS
2.your a douche
3.your iq is below 85

My supporting reason. Think we didn not go to war? What would happen? I'd say maybe a Sears Tower bombing? A few more USS Cole incidents? Embasys? Answer:YES

Small price. I'd do it.

If somebody walked into your house and killed your family, then you'd do something right? Stop it from happening again?

Whatever Americas my home.

I know i know, the next person will say "Iraq didnt have t odo with 911! Wah Wah Wah. Saddam is the durka durka Dictator of  Hitler. First Hitler killed retartds, then gays, people with problems, then the Jews, and noone cared. If someone would have cad when he killed the mental than we could have stopped WW2 from ever happening. So harden the fuck up.

WTF?

WTF x2

Go on, what would have been the result if troops hadn't gone into Iraq over three years ago?  Maybe Osama would have been found, Afghanistan cleaned up and all the US soldiers might have spent this Christmas back home with their families, where they belong instead of in cemeteries, in boxes or in body bags.

How about you shut the fuck up and pay respect to your fallen countrymen?

SealXo has no respect for soldiers. He is among the lowest forms of life - and probably would try to dodge the draft.

Maybe if Clinton would have let Saddam move his troops up to the border in '98 without being contested and pulled US troops out of the whole middle east we wouldn't be talking about 9/11.  Playing the what if game is fun ain't it.

The same game is played in trying to pre-empt terror threats.  This often involves detaining innocent people and invading countries on flimsy evidence.

All soldiers lives are precious, and it is heart wrenching to see more of them die. . . .

WHICH MEANS WE NEED TO WIN THIS WAR! Whatever that may take, we must defeat the insurgents/hardliners/al-Qaeda in Iraq! If we dont, I think we all know what will happen. . . we WILL be fighting them here! These people aren't the vietcong, where they were just fighting for the reunification of Vietnam, these people are fighting to spread their ideology(which is killing all those who dont agree with them in total)!

Regardless if you agree or disagree with this war, that doesnt matter! We're in Iraq, we need to work our way out of it in a bipartisan manner!

It IS POSSIBLE to defeat them! We need to be tough and not give in like we did during vietnam! We cannot leave and let that country spiral out of control!!!!

The pacifists are WRONG in calling for a complete withdrawl! That won't help anyone! Not the USA, and certainly not the Iraqi's. . . .

The vietcongs were also fighting for an ideology, one based on a more just world for the simple man. But I do agree with you, to pullout now would be bad for everyone. But what choice is there now?
