Israeli Airstrike Destroys UN Observation Post

there continues to be this willfull refusal to understand the basic differences between the aims of arab nationalist movements and the aims of organizations like Al Qaeda....

Dixie is ignoring me so that he does not have to deal with those sorts of issues.... I just talk around him.

I see, well ignoring reality is about the only way he can hold onto some of the views he has expressed, so I guess it makes sense that he is also ignoring you.

You have to ignore others ideas and suggestions to hold firmly to many Conservative ideals... :cof1:

Dixie, Maineman has really faced you... No response?

Hmmm.... Really?

All I see is...

maineman--This user is on your Ignore List.

Let me guess?

A. He is still arguing the same idiotic point about the subtle differences between various Arab Muslim terror groups, as if they are not all ultimately seeking the same Caliphate?

B. He is making some absurd claim that I think (along with Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan) that any good Muslim is a dead Muslim. Disregarding the fact that Islamofascists are to Islam what the KKK is to Christianity.

C. He's posting his sick perverted sexual fantasies about raping someones kid again.


I know it had to be one of these, which is why he is being ingored.

We shared intel for years, we got 9/11 and Iraq. This is NOT a war of information,

And there is your problem. You don't underunderstand that information is a much more powerful in the WOT than military might. All we needed was a phone call or an email to prevent 9/11.

Hamas is seeking the end to Israel and the creation of a political entity known as Palestine.... they could care less about a caliphate.

Hezbollah is seeking to recreate the Iranian theocratic state within Lebanon.... they could care less about any caliphate.

Al Qaeda is seeking to destroy political subdivisions through the area in between the Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean.... they care very MUCH about a caliphate.... and they are attempting to arouse the anger of the arab/muslim street at the status quo. (To that end, they really wanted America to invade conquer and occupy an oil rich arab country...and they got their wish.... much to Dixie's continued glee)

In Dixie's black and white world, these groups are all the same... and, unfortunately, in Bush's world they are all the same as well. It is for that very reason that our foreign policy is such a total disaster.

It is like letting a butcher do brain surgery because he claims to be good with a knife.

I disagree, and I think you show a complete lack of understanding about what we are facing. These people have been attacking us since the late 70's, and 9/11 was simply the point at which we woke up and began to respond with aggressive force. Don't mistake what I am saying, "intelligence" is indeed a valuable tool to have, but that alone will never defeat this enemy.

We are talking about, literally millions of people, who have listened to the Mullah's and Cleric's, who have been raised and educated in an environment, to hate America and Israel, and they have so perverted their religious teachings, as to endorse barbarism in the name of reaching their objectives, which include the annihilation of Israel and all "infidels" who don't subscribe to their 5th Century Muhammad Law, including Muslims.

Sticking our heads in the sand and pretending this is anything less than what it is, will only result in them gaining strength and momentum, and will never result in their defeat. It is time for the whole world to stand up to them and say, "Enough!" We simply can't continue to view this as some sort of law enforcement problem, or isolated situation, we have American citizens being killed because of it, and it's time to put a stop to it, once and for all.
 
millions of arabs are our enemies?

and when I say that Dixie thinks that the only good arabg is a dead arab, he disagrees with that?

if dixie puts everone on HIS ignore list, he will be totally unaware when everyone else ignores HIM.... that really is not that bad an outcome!

My guess is, in that scenario, he might actually win a few arguments.

lol

Hey Jarod, consider Dixie's threat to be a badge of honor. Anyone who makes him look foolish enough (which isn't hard), is bound to get threatened with the ignore list.
 
methinks that anyone who quotes any of MY posts in a Dixie thread runs the "risk" of being ignored by him. He really does not want to have to deal with my attacks against his arguments...

Yup, I guess you are correct. Soon only conservatives who agree with everything he says will be the only ones he sees discussing anything. Much like life in Alabama.
 
As someone who spent many a night in that very observation post that was bombed, I think that the fault lie in the UN leadership. Those four observers were unarmed members of an organization called the UN Truce Supervision Organization. Once Israel started a significant military offensive, there was no more truce to supervise. Those four observers at OP Khiam, along with the four at OP Lab and OP Hin and OP Ras and OP Mar should have all been called in out of the field. OP Khiam was IMMEDIATELY adjacent to the village of Khiam, just a few clicks south of Nabatiye and the Litani River.... the village was a target in the Israeli offensive. They dropped bombs on the village at night and one of them hit the OP. It should have been empty at the time

I consider the U.N. to be our enemy, who is actively trying to usurp our sovreignty. It's an ineffective, bloated, wasteful organization. The only good u.n. official is a dead one.

That's what they get for being in a warzone not minding their own business.

That's assanine, Grind.

LOL... My "threat" to ignore Jarod had absolutely nothing to do with him making me look foolish or his disagreeing with me. It has to do with the ignore feature, which I use to filter out child predators I don't care to communicate with. He posted a child predator's quote in his post above, without any further comment, simply because he wished to force the child predator's views to be seen by me, when I clearly stated the child predator was being ignored. If I have to also ignore Jarod, to keep from viewing something I choose not to view, then I will. Simple as that. And it's not a "threat" it's a damn promise.
