Well at least it makes the fight more fair not having armor!

Common how will those terrorist stand a chance if all the American and British troops where equipped with the new versitile fiber-optic, infared, laser sensing body armor. It would be no match....

You think those links are funny, but thats how we do it up here in Canada, we are equiped with like 3 naval vessiles, one kick ass special task force to do all the dirty work and 5 tanks! Thats it!

The Canadian forces in Afganastan dont have any more armour than the Americans actually they probably have less!

Oh ya check out our sea king helicopters!!!!!

Similar thing for the British Army, we had a few squaddies killed as they had to give their body armour away to the infantry. Makes sense though, they were tankers and the Challenger tank is fairly well-armoured...

Obviously, I wasn't speaking in terms of morality. Being strong or weak has nothing to do with being right or wrong. I was speaking in terms of being quite confident that this nation, being so blessed by God with strength in so many different ways, can win this war if only we stick to it rather than run away, and correct mistakes rather than just complaining.

Nobody was saying might is right. Before you go accusing others of being shallow, self loving, self indulging and arrogant, you should read an entire post. You'll find that the random segments make more sense in context.

[quote name='Didacus' date='Jan 9 2006, 11:23 AM']Lovely... might is right?  Typical typical typical.

We should not second guess the second strongest nation in history.  What a shallow, self loving, self endugling, arrogant point of view.
