Ursa Majoris Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 He was in the Navy. Should rejoin. His country needs him. Seriously, are we really concerned about a bunch of turbanned guys in a speedboat? Simply engaging these cretins in conversation boosts their ego. Better to simply ignore their plastic saber and let them talk to themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa Majoris Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 You don't consider yourself an "us"???? I consider going to war to be an extremely serious business only to be undertaken as a last resort. I do not consider it to be something to be done at the drop of a hat.

I do not consider it to be something to be done at the drop of a hat. Agreed. Listen, I'm the last person you need to convince. But to boast that kind of statement when we already have tensions between us, is pretty freak'n dumb IMO. Elect a REP and Iran is next on the list.

Square Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I consider going to war to be an extremely serious business only to be undertaken as a last resort. I do not consider it to be something to be done at the drop of a hat. I can only hope that people have learned some lesson from the last couple worthless wars we have been involved in. The price is too great for what we actually "win". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll stick with the guy who handled that whole "wanted dead or alive" with that bin Laden dude. Let's elect a rep so he can drop bombs. F'ing stoopid.

WaterMan Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Yay more chances for the 1% to do chest poundings about our military size and how half of Detroit and Alabama will be sent to fight for whatever reason they make up this time.

Jimmy Neutron Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I suspect that the next time we have business in the Strait of Hormuz, it'll be with more than one carrier group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westvirginia Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Guys, this really isn't a big deal. IIRC, Iran has two submarines that are so noisy the fish run away to keep from hurting their ears, and a few PT boats and a couple Korean-era frigates. They won't get within 100 miles of a carrier battle group with hostile intentions. Hell, the carrier's CAP would probably be able to handle the threat without even launching the alert fighters. The best thing we could do is what you do to your mother-in-law: nod at her "advice" and go on and do what we would anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
