I have an equal amount of evidence that the average Limey is dumber than a box of rocks. I just read RobertN's posts!! !

Ah, well, that's alright. Say that Little Englanders are fat, racist snitches and I'll kick you into intensive care. (j/k, btw)

HEHEHE Do I have to use your Socialized intensive care or our overpriced leagalistic private one??

Upen hearing what have happened to two of our troops in Iraq, Please keep their families in our thoughts and prayers as well all those that are currently overseas fighting so we can remain free.

Amen to that!
I don't like the war, but i pray that the Lord will protect our soldiers and bring them home to their families safely and soon. God Bless the USA!

Bless our troops-yes. Bring them home from this travesty before more die-YES.

As we get closer to the 4th of July, Keep our troops in our thoughts and prayers while we are celebrating the holiday.

Also for those that have served in our armed forces in the past no matter when or what branch, I want to say THANK YOU!! !! !! !! You are the reason why we have freedom and I appriciate it.

So who exactly are "our" servicemen and women? I'll stick my neck out here and say that I'm not American, and I thought that this was supposed to be an AS site, not a US site. Thankfully I'm from one of the coalition-of-the-willing countries though, which means that I'm one of those GOOD aspies who will continue to be welcome here...hopefully...

...Oh - and as for the issue of God blessing anybody, it's a mute point. God would have to exist to do that.

Your troops should also get a big thanks from us as well as troops from other countries that has help us both now and in the past.

Jason Alexander is a peace activist against war in the middle east. Why are you using his picture as your avatar in your posts?

Instead of writing such a bitter reply, why didn't you just say something about the Austrailian troops? I don't recall anyone saying only Americans can post about soldiers from their country. You also don't have to say God bless the troops. How about posting a message hoping that they get home safely? In other words, you should try replacing some of your anger with a little common sense.

That's actually James R. Gandolfini which he currently plays Tony Soprano in the Sopranos which I use to watch when I had HBO.

Because my reply had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that Australian troops were involved in the conflict, and I was not upset that they were not getting due credit. In fact it had nothing to do with how I feel about the war at all. It just came down to the use of the word "our" as if to exclude and alienate anyone who, whether personally or by sheer dent of their nationality, is not in favour of the US and its objectives. And no, I am not an habitual yank-basher, I do believe that the majority of them are decent people. But how is a Canadian, New Zealander, Argentinian, German, Indian, Irelander, South African, Swede, Chilean, or someone from the other 131 countries that did not support this conflict, supposed to feel when they turn to WP for support and guidance, only to find this kind of ideology creeping in? Ah now, you see, it's not about me, nor about Australia!

For the record, this is not what I believe Jaguars_Fan intended to do. I think his heart was in the right place in starting the thread and while his response also missed the point, I was impressed by his calm and consideration. Granted, Sorce, it's not my strong suit, but double-check the last sentence of your post and try telling me that it wasn't the height of hypocrisy. It was just as angry a response, if not more.
