i think the main characteristic of the american people is the love of
invention...which has as it's opposite...the abandon opposite..the love
of the regular...by regular i mean the expected...the usual...the carrying on of what was done yesterday...when loves invention one
sits at the frontier at all times...one expects the frontier to keep moving and to be someplace just beyond...invention versus convention...america left convention behind and loves invention instead..

Maybe if I'm lucky I'll get to fire a gun and maybe even bag me a few muslims too! Booyah!
I'm self-taught when it comes to sniveling little english "boys" like you, who probably wouldn't last a day in Navy boot-camp, much less an hour in Marine Corps bootcamp. They don't serve cappuccino and espresso on demand, so I'm afraid you'd break like stick.....was I polite enough?
Originally posted by chancremechanicIt is actually people like you who just strengthen this negative view of Americans. According to you, it seems you think anything American is better than anything from anywhere else simply because it is from your country.
Precisely through your media, such as the BBC, Der Speigel, Les Monde [sic?].
As for the military, it is well known among anyone who really knows , that the SAS [british] and the French Foreign Legion amongst several other countries elite forces are as good and probably better than the US equivalent.
Also, I think I would choose the BBC news over FOX definately for reliability and truth.
Originally posted by Dr StrangeloveFrench Foreign Legion?...LOL.....now, the SAS are probably just as good, if not better, (and if better, only by a hair) than the U.S. Navy SEALS or the U.S Army's Delta Force.....it's an argument that will never be answered....hopefully
