SlartyBartFast,
The Aussies are more than a match for the Indos, but I am 100% certain that the US and UK would come and help take all of the loses off of you guys. Speaking of the Aussie Army you guys were some bad MoFos in Korea. Alot of people see the Korean Conflict as a US thing, it was not it was a UN thing with the US supply the brunt of the burden. With that said the Aussies and Turks were the badest MoFos in that conflict, almost evilly so. Not a lot is written about their contributions but the North Koreans would go to great Lenghts to directly confront American Lines before the Aussie/Turks. The Chinese were not so scared but they were brain washed by their sheer numbers. The sad truth is, and most historians agree, that if MacArthur had not been pulled from command their would be one free country of Korea and not a seperated nation.
At the time our intelligence on Russia and China was severlly limited, but now we know China/Russo relations at that time were severly strained. The Chinese more than likely would have bailed at the sign of the first Arty Nuke. And the Russians although boisterous, did not have the Nuke capacity to even respond as Korea was manily like every other war Russia had a hand in just a place for them to test technologies.
I have tried to stay out of the Iraq debates as I support the War but not the reasons originally for the war. I support the Kurds, this people have been crapped on (like the Jews) fr centuries. It is about time the Kurds catch a break. Sadam Gone is a good thing, I do not think there is one intelligent person in the world who really has much of a debate for this. But the Kurds are the biggest winners from this and for once I hope they can lead normal prosperous lives. Those two positive things, for me personally justify what we are doing. As far as WMDs, He had them, and He ditched them somewhere I would say most likely Iran since he ditched his air force there too. I am sorry we did not find any when we went in, but we did find delivery systems for them. Why have the delivery systems if you never had them. I will stop rambling now, I hope all of our boys return soon and I can understand the worlds point of view with the exception of one country.
France, The US has backed and bailed out France in twice and took over for them after they failed In Vietnam (Which was a French Colony). Now they have been caught with their hands in the cookie Jar as the primary players in the Oil for Food scandal. If one country other than the UK in Europe should side with the US on everything it should be France. I have friends from France I have visited there and can say once outside of Paris the French people are some of the most genuine in the world, but their politicos should realize they owe the US a debt they can never fully repay and thumbing there noses at us is not beneficial for them in anyway. Chirac should be ashamed
