Re: The U.S. Postal Service has got to be kidding

This thread is really stupid . . .

I am just happy that the USPS can actually print any religious references period. This notion that any indication of religious anything is a threat to the separation of Church and State is absurd and at least it hasn't made its way to stamps . . .

My point exactly!.....
It did not work!.......
In fact, it backfired horribly.....
My point is that you cannot use a "one size fits all" approach.....
Well, you can, but it will not work.......
Comprende?.........JK

Re: The U.S. Postal Service has got to be kidding

The Japanese camps were an embarrassment and an utter failure............are you suggesting we repeat that history. The idea is NOT to repeat the past mistakes.

Sure lets go back to WWII, a byproduct of which was "limited war" tactics........which is really the reason we are still in Iraq today. We had a chance to end that stuggle in the Gulf War and didnt. Same issue with Korea.

Woodrat. I think Custombycrunch is refering to the collateral damage that occurs in all out war. Civilians are not targets. There is a big difference between what he describes and what you are comparing it to. I don't think that there is one American that would dream of hijacking a commercial airliner full of civilians and ramming it into a skyscraper full of civilians.

I think that calling for the whole middle east to be nuked back to the stone age, or until they "glow" would qualify as deliberate targeting of innocent civilians, don't you? "total loss of life in offending countries"? Sounds like something ol' OBL would be proud of...

I guess pony and haut both have reading disabilities.... or could it be that it's that old tactic of the liberal crowd that when pressed into a corner they dodge, weave, and change the subject?.... ignore the question and take off in their own direction?


One more time.... WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE OF THE JAPANESE INTERNMENT CAMPS?

No pony, the camps did exactly what they were ment to do.... with a perfect record.

I read you loud & clear, I just think your message is a load of carp!
Since you think you have all of the answers, why don't you tell us what you think it's purpose was?
I guess it was sucessful if you were not a Japanese/American citizen........JK

Re: The U.S. Postal Service has got to be kidding

I'm sorry Custombycrunch, you are correct, you didn't actually say the "whole Middle East" although you did refer to quite a bit of it by name.

"We know where the money comes from, countries like Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, etc..... and right here at home from some resident alien Moslems.

We need to get serious about this "war on terror" and deport the non-citizen Moslems, take the source of the wealth from counties that support terrorists, and bomb counties like Syria back to the stone age they live in... sounds harsh, but sometimes you have to throw the baby out with the bath water... I know, innocent’s will be killed...."

Oh, this is a good one!

"or could it be that it's that old tactic of the liberal crowd that when pressed into a corner they dodge, weave, and change the subject?.... ignore the question and take off in their own direction?"

Of course, you are dodging the basic premise of what I am saying. (does that make you a "liberal"?)You, like the terrorists, are willing to deliberately wipe out innocent life to get back at your enemies. Bombing a whole country-even if it is not the whole region-back to the stone age is not just a matter of incurring a little collateral damage in the due course of war, but instead is punishing a whole population for the sins of a few. Like I said, OBL would be proud.

I can read just fine, and what I see is radicalism and extremism and hatred for a whole portion of humanity based on the actions of a few, including the willingness to knowing and deliberately call for the destruction of whole populations, including innocents and children. The main differences I see between that and suicide bombings and hijackings is that of scale-your idea is much larger- and that you want these deeds to be done by someone else and you are not willing to throw your own life away to get it done.

Ok.... it's purpose was simply to keep Japanese sympathizers from spying and sabotage activities.... and it was 100% successful.... but you knew that.

Thousands more (like me) are still armed, and know how to fight back. They'll never get my home posessions when they make me dead, either...I'm giving it all to my kids --- who know how to shoot also.
