Right, right. Just look at Afghanistan, raving Warlords of the former Northern Alliance are now treating the population almost, if not as bad as the Taliban did. " Meta: Well I've stated my opinion about this, running away is a defeat in my book.

Realizing it not being worth it and pulling out is defeat, they outlasted you despite suffering far greater casualties.

They won, in the sense that: You ran away, with them right behind ya shouting nasty words and waving fists/guns/tanks at ya. "

Battle of Mogadishu with 19 US killed was military action, Vietnam with 58,000 US soldiers KIA was a frigging war no matter how you wanna put it. Thinking you didn't lose this one is delusional to say the least. PS. Oh and Jaq, you got something mixed up there, we once ruled them in the Kalmar Union, but never vice versa. Danes were never slaves, but we did have Thralls " Edit: Steve, in my language it's called the "Falkland Wars", just thought I'd mention it.

... and in women's clothing, or so it was in mine anyway.

You best start believing in ghost stories Miss Turner. You're in one.

I see, but those are both rather extreme, surely noone here believes *everything* or *nothing* at all. Eldar: What would by my mothers opinion again? The everything or nothing thingie?

My momma is a what? "

How unfortunate, I hope this opinion will change in time.

Forgive me, I'm tired and grumpy. But your post did give me the impression of war being 'ok'.

... And there were no more terrorists, and no more arguments and disputes, and we all went to live in the gingerbread house at the end of lollipop lane in the land of chocolate ... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What is it with you and war? Do you enjoy it?

Scream and run away? Bring back flamethrower? "

Hand-Made Polar-Bear...

And even more would be saved if no more invasions was launched. :D

It's funny Roger, I was thinking the exact same thing. And also one the last note by a "battlefield doctor", so are they planning on using this on soldiers or what? Get shot up, die, drive em home to base and revive em. Now that would indeed be creepy. I'm not a religious man, I dislike religion with all my heart, but I do believe in the soul. Oh and dogs do have souls, at least I'm confident that mine did.

Well, if you're thinking about Bittrichs Panzer Division, "Das Reich" which was SS, I'd have to ask if you'd go with or without the SS lightning bolts? I think this has a lot to do with whatever reaction you might encounter out there among non damaged people. :D Yeah, I heard they removed the swastikas, and the Iron Cross is a wartime medal only obviously, so I think they'd use em again if Germany was to go to war.

-Here is the aerial recognosaince photos, General. It clearly shows a group of tanks from the 2nd Panzer division, should we abort? -No, no, rubbish! Those are probably broken or left there for some reason! proceed as planned. note: I saw a photo of Willi Bittrich(commander of the 2nd Waffen-SS Panzerdivision) having dinner with another general in the 1960's and he was still wearing his Knight's cross! :D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I gather you and I share the same odd fascination for German WW2 military (not the death camps, of course), I just read that he also received the Knights Cross, which is somewhat more difficult to get, to say the least, only some 7000 was awarded compared to the several million Iron Crosses. If I'd been awarded one of these, I'd wear it till the day I died. :D

Math sucks.

Yeah I read about the Type 98 countermeasures, including a laser system which tries to blind the optics of enemy anti-tank missiles locking on to them, forcing the turret to swing in the direction of the danger, and possibly damaging the eyesight of the hostile gunner as well. Hax!

I've never heard of any of those, they're still in early experimental phase I assume? Anyway, I'll boost my defence by playing the T90: The mother of modern tanks, this baby makes the M1A2 and Leopard2A5 cry uncle! Oh and it flies.

The Type 98, Chinas newest MBT and one that rivals even the Abrams:

Jutland is, I'll give you that without batting an eye :D But just look at where the capital is located; in the center of the realm, it's logical that Sk

Ah but Kaftan, it was never yours, it had been ours for 800 years. Now please give it back! :"> Edit: Just a little piece of evidence ;D "The province of Scania, or Sk

...Typically danish Not that I'm complaing if they use em " <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Right, yet we're the ones who had you under our crown, and never vice versa.

That one looks really cumbersome.
