1,000 Marines dead in 2 wars
 

The Corps crossed a major threshold this week.

Thank you, Marines.

Semper Fi.
I hope it was worth it and not just political collateral damage.

One war, blast it. Two theaters of operation; these are campaigns in the overall war. It's the thinking of the defeatist surrender-monkeys that tries to make this two wars -- typical of their muddled and lazy thinking.

Apparently the writer forgot you people were going for a world war here.

Are the defeatist surrender monkeys any relation to the cheese eating surrender monkeys?

We love world wars. The more people we can consolidate into one enemy the better. If I recall, France and Germany are somewhere on that list... If you aren't with us, you're against us. *edit* and don't forget, according to Giulliani, Iran and al-Qa'ida are working together to bring us down!

Must have forgot that Iran wanted to help with the war in Afghanistan...

...and that al-Qa'ida and Iran cooperating is almost as unbelievable as Israel and Syria.

They can fit into the same pigeonhole. And if they share the cheese, we won't have to listen to so much of their whine. :cool:

Neither is much credit to their people.

It's hardly like the other guys are not -- given the capability. We may get a world war whether or not we want one.

If we get a mushroom cloud or a dirty bomb, how much war is justified then? Shouldn't we simply be denying the opposition this dream, let alone any chance to fulfill it?

Iwo Jima's cost to the US Marines:

Thirty-seven days from landing to "island secured." We won that one.

Tarawa had almost nine hundred dead, and in less time than Iwo. We won that one too.
