Further, I think that men tend to debate in a more confrontational manner. Since there are few women posting on DP, it seems that men should try to be considerate to the few women who do post on DP. There are certain words that are offensive to women, and are programmed out automatically on some sites. So using the B.... word should be reserved for extra special occasions, of which I don't see here.

If you are trying to further the Libertarian Party, you may want to tune up your persuasiveness. That comment was a turn-off for me.

Yep

Except that we don't have the assets in the area to do that, much less prevent the first salvo. Even if we COULD get them all, there's no way we could stop enough of them from flattening virtually everything within their range, which includes several major South Korean population centers, including Seoul.
Too bad for the Koreans.
The next phase would be all us though.
...and that would be the last phase too...

The NKA is trained for conventional war. What we're facing in Iraq is asymmetrical warfare. It's kind of like Vietnam. Every time the conventional military of the Commies attacked they were obliterated. I'm frankly not worried about sheer infantry numbers, especially when they'd have to cross the DMZ. It's the artillery that gets me.
But the threat could be the same after they are taken down.
Try to think ahead about what I am talkign about and assume that I know as much as you, if not more, because I am thinking steps ahead when I make a seemingly simple comment about them being an immense threat.

No offense, but I feel as if you are trying to give me a lesson instead of talking to me as an equal, and I am certainly not unaware about militaries and philosophy of war, much less being able to extrapolate threat potential and interpret data.

Re: War On Terror Is A Joke

Great, another whacko whose first language is NOT english, and won't give his location or nationality. At least we know he likes communism, that alone indicates a lack of education and intellect.
He is against a LOT of things, and won't tell us what he is for...
I will pre-emptively put him on ignore....

Re: War On Terror Is A Joke

What does his political affiliation, or nationality, have to do with anything? That's disturbing. Most americans don't even know what communism is, was, or how their perception of communism differs from other parts of the world.


On the main subject, yes, the war on terror is a disgusting, barbaric, violent joke on the world.

I believe Marx had a Ph.D in philosophy, Lenin did attend university for some time before being expelled, other examples; are these examples of no education and intellect? The author of this thread did express ignorant attitudes which are very unmarxist.

This statement is oh so true.
