Fugdbdt Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Had a VERY interesting conversation with a high ranking executive - Who heads departments at one of our the largest defense contractors. The core of his departments specializes in integrating emerging software/hardware into exsisting systems - Focusing mainly on the attack side of war. His stance is very simple - And from reading what he was saying - I believe him 110%. He stated the war in Iraq will be continued despite public outcry or financial burdens. His reason was simple. Right now - An estimated 85 to 95% of Al Quidea's time, effort, and attention - Is focused on proving resistance to US troops in Iraq. The reasoning is to keep them fighting in Iraq - Until they are dismantled. This keeps them from fighting here. Just my opinion - But I think he's right. What do you think?

Guest_ikonboard Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 That has been said for quite some time. I have always beleived that if that were the only reason we are over there it's good enough to be there. We took the war to Japan. We kept the war in Europe. It's worked before lets keep it that way.

WE lost three thou. lifes in a matter of hours! I know when i joined up that was the chance i took.Its always hard when someone so young dies, Even harder when theres 3000.just think of how you felt 3 years ago or have you alredy forgotten!

injunfrank Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Well, it's (Iraq) a hell of a beach-head - when the "Big War" begins....i.e. the rest of the "West" finally shows up cus it really doesn't ever "end" until some one "wins" ( that means --- kill or dis-arm the enemy!).... the idea we are "at war" with just their "evil Leaders" and not their culture is just "bullshit"................sorry - wish it wasn't so and so many have died and are going too........but like so many of ya have said - freedom isn't free. You asked ! ride safe, injunfrank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
