Gator Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 I am one of those who would have preferred we used further diplomatic means to gain worldwide support for any confrontation with Iraq. Now that we have entered into this war, I wanted to thank all the brave men and woman of the UK armed forces for staying with the U.S. through these troubled times. The U.K has always been, and still remains, a true friend and ally of the U.S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJ Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 As a world it's always been all for one and forget the rest but the Americans and the British will always live and work together.Its always been the same and will never change.The times i have spent in America i have always been welcomed with open arms and i hope when the Americans come to the UK we give you the same.I hope when the war is finished us as 2 nations come together as one and forget all them who didn't want to help.We as 2 nations should run the world and show that we don't need anybody else. As our men the men of the British and the Americans fight for what we believe in.I wish them all the best and to come back victorous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEFCON Posted March 22, 2003 Share Posted March 22, 2003 this thread is for the UK (and by proxy good ole australia). I extend my thanks for sticking with the US too. The british are great peeps, im going over there this summer for 3 weeks and i hope i can reciprocate the friendliness. As far as I know the polish people, the germans, and most of the rest of the world hate our guts. Heck we have even been labeled a terrorist state, and if what we are doing is terrorism than I guess I'm a terrorist sympathizer. Anyway, heartfelt thanks to the British and Australians for taking the big step and supporting us with deeds and words. BTW, i like Tony Blair as a leader, not as a poodle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Markman Posted March 23, 2003 Share Posted March 23, 2003 You'll be surprised but there are lots of Germans who support us. Their Government is run by 'almost a socialist ' Gehardt Schröder. He's like a super socialistic liberal man. He probably hates America. Mostly people in former East Germany are supporters of Gehardt. People who live in South Germany(Mainly Bavaria) don't like him. (Heheh kinda like our south when you think about it.. hehhe..YEs they do speak differently than northeren Germans) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpio Posted March 23, 2003 Share Posted March 23, 2003 eh he isn't my favourite person in the world either. I live in the nw' part of Germany. What I don't understand is. we let someone like osama kill thousands of civialians but if you hurt one militiary person under a dictatorship they all go mad? Its nuts I say! I am gonna make a new spray for Fire Arms.. Unless some deem it "unapproiate" it will have something like the Iraqi flag with big bold letters "Iraq Sucks" that or I'll just make something silly so if you see an Iraqi sucks flag it twas me :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorpio Posted March 23, 2003 Share Posted March 23, 2003 Reminds me of a funny story an American penpal of mine sent me.Read OnOnce upon a time in a nice little forest, there lived an orphaned bunnyand an orphaned snake. By a surprising coincidence, both were blindfrom birth.One day, the bunny was hopping through the forest, and the snake wasslithering through the forest, when the bunny tripped over the snakeand fell down. This, of course, knocked the snake about quite a bit."Oh, my," said the bunny, "I'm terribly sorry. I didn't mean to hurtyou.I've been blind since birth, so, I can't see where I'm going. In fact,since I'm also an orphan, I don't even know what I am.""It's quite OK," replied the snake. "Actually, my story is much thesameas yours. I, too, have been blind since birth, and also never knew mymother. Tell you what, maybe I could slither all over you, and work outwhat you are, so at least you'll have that going for you.""Oh, that would be wonderful" replied the bunny. So the snake slitheredallover the bunny, and said, "Well, you're covered with soft fur; you havereally long ears; yournose twitches; and you have a soft cottony tail. I'd say that you must bea bunny rabbit.""Oh, thank you! Thank you," cried the bunny, in obvious excitement.Thenthe bunny suggested to the snake, "Maybe I could feel you all over with mypaw, and help you the same way that you've helped me."So the bunny felt the snake all over, and remarked, "Well, you'resmoothand slippery, and you have a forked tongue, no backbone and no balls.I'd say you must be French".

To much truth to that story. But I have no hard feelings to the French people, but their government has to much as stake with the current Iraq goventment...that is where it is so sad :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
