true hip-hop associates itself with racial unity

You have got to be kidding. American black Rap is rife with racism and hatred. Ugly stuff.

The time is passing slowly, the minutes are stretching longer than we had whished for, the tea has gotten cold, and the whole place became stand still.

At least you're not putting any pressure on the poor girl.

US wants to seize Iraqi oil

Oh, give it a rest, man. Other kooks claim Bush did it for personal wealth. So where's all this oil and money?

it's one of the few places in the US that isn't in recession.

Maybe this is because you have Mexicans and not the other system suckers?

we were lied to by our leaders

An often repeated untruth. Nearly every smart mind in the world thought there were WMDs in Iraq. Bush just took that and ran with it.

50% of the pop. here is Mexican

I feel for you. But they are better than, umm... another, much lazier and more criminally inclined minority group.

UK, Ireland / English teenager refused service at Polish shop [87]

A couple years ago in Philadelphia a sandwich takeout shopkeeper posted a sign that read “This is America, please speak English when ordering” as a protest of all the Mexicans that come here and expect everyone to accommodate their lazy lack of effort to learn our native language. He didn’t deny anyone service but the PCers went ballistic anyway. The City Council threatened to bring against him some trumped-up charges about ethnic intimidation or some such.

The guy and his shop and sign became a rallying cry for similar minded folks and he ended up winning the stare-down against the power-abusing PCers. He reasoned that he himself was the son of immigrants who elected to learn English upon arriving on our shores. Tough to argue against that.

Now everyone who comes and orders a sandwich gets a free bumper sticker with the slogan “This is America, speak English” on it. They are quite popular, much to the chagrin of the PCers. I’ve got one on my car.

Moral of the story: Decent people are sick and tired of having all this PC BS forced on them and being expected to bend over backward and accommodate lazy foreigners who come here and disrespect our culture. It is a simple choice between accommodation and assimilation. And those who elect to go to another land should be the ones to alter their ways and assimilate. And attempting to speak the native language is the most basic way of assimilating.

The prospect of nuclear war has changed greatly in recent times. During the cold war, both sides were constrained by the threat of mutual annihilation and level heads were able to prevail. This is why nukes were limited to responsible nations. No more. Today there are unstable nutjob crackpots and terrorist governments with nuclear weapons and they seem willing to use them, consequences be damned. And much like these ground wars we are fighting today, it is difficult to defend against an enemy who is willing to blow themselves up in order to win, and for little more reason than they think their god is better than others’ god.

I never fail to laugh at this video and song..

Respect to Russia, but not in this case...

That’s some garbage right there. What is with all these wannabe whiggers? It is a shame that this ghetto garbage seems to be one of our biggest exports. That foreigner aspire to emulate our garbage ghetto culture is another shame.

Shaking my head.

Americans have a reputation of stupid and are stupid as a result of a long and drawn out process which i believe is a deliberate one ... someone actually made an effort to turn you into a nation of morons.

Well, you're right there. And the payoff just came as those responsble just took power.

I am all for compulsory military service in some form. For all the freebies lazy American ingrates enjoy –from free medical care to college tuition paid- I think everyone should have to serve, say, two years of some service between high school and college, like some other countries do. A simple give-back for all they get for free. They would also learn things that would benefit society as a whole, such as discipline, self reliance and respect, things much lacking in our Liberalized society today.

Why must you argue with me about everything? I said nothing about ground fighting forces only; I have repeatedly said total military personnel. My statement is correct while you used bad numbers on your stat before. You mentioned Army fighting forces. We here have four branches of military: Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. Plus Coast Guard, Reserves and National Guard troops.

We also have about one million domestic police officers and a bunch of border patrol agents –not that they have anything to do with this discussion but they are first responders in homeland security.

Please, you're trying to show that America's military preparedness is compromised and this is simply not the case. That is little more than anti-Bush Democrat propaganda.

The war in Afghan is stupid. Unlike the urban warfare in Iraq, the fighting region is so rural that our Air Force alone should be able to take care of the job.

Life / How far apart do Poles stand when they talk? [46]

Perhaps there were more but they just preferred to stand so far away I never got to meet them personally.

Lol... It's good to know about standing close when talking to Europers. I'll use that next time I'm talking to a Polish chick! ;)

European people tend to stay to close when they talk. ... I prefer the American way, plenty of space.

I agree with Eurola. Europeans stand way close when talking. Americans stay much farther away. That's how we like it!

Well, according to Wiki my number was low. Turns out we have a little more than 1.4 million active personnel and another 1.4 million reserves. With 138,000 in Iraq, that’s still only about 10% of our total active duty personnel.

I think all told we have about 1.2 million. I’m not sure exactly but I recall that was the number getting bandied about a couple years ago in discussions of troop deployment numbers.

So our troops in Iraq really only account for about 10% of our total personnel.

Interesting, Sok. I really had no knowledge of it. I guess I could have researched all that myself but thanks.

conscription has recently been abolished, Randal. You had to sign up but I think they revised the position

That’s how it is here. You have to register but active service is voluntary.

How many personnel in the Polish Military?

News / US to deploy Patriot missiles to Poland [404]

Well our military needs patriots, currently Polish airforce is relatively small but modern and trained to a point where our pilots are arguably the best in Europe but we do not have anti-ballistic sams, thats a pretty big defense gap and if we did not get them for free we would have to buy them and since our military is in the process of gigantic modernisation we have enough stuff to spend money on without additional expensive assets to buy.

So they don’t have anything to defend against even like Scuds? What about the Polish Navy? Any missile defenses there? Any missile cruisers, aircraft carriers or nuke subs? (Lol… an old joke had the Polish Navy with screen doors on their subs!)

Is Polish military service volunteer or compulsory?

Patriot missiles is the topic. Poland doesn't need these to be honest. It is equipped enough to deal with modern contingencies.

No one here has much spoken of Poland's military capabilities...
