MissScripture Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 But you said that the nation that fights on two fronts loses. That isn't so, as is illustrated by us in WWII. Germany lost in the world wars, but that isn't necessarily because they were fighting on two fronts. In other wars, countries fight on one front and lose. You can't say that because some countries fighting on one front lose, that a country going into a war on one front is going to lose. Faulty logic.

In such cases the the Nation fighting both sides looses.[/quote] I don't recall the Untied States losing WWI, or WWII, both of which I recall were fought on more than two fronts. The modern wars America has lost has been because liberals destroy the will of the people.

[/quote] Yes, it's hard for one country to defend it's boarders against enemies on two fronts-- Germany is an example. However, you were saying that the US couldn't fight in two places at the same time and win. VE Day and VJ Day show that we can. Now, granted, we didn't fight alone there... And if we weren't fighting alone here, the job would be done much more quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno how many in Bosnia and Serbia (yes, we are STILL there too). Now yer gonna insult all of them too by saying they don't count and neither do their combat deaths? huh? BTW..it's one war. Different fronts, different campaigns...one war. Or if we use your definition, then Iwo Jima, Guadalcanal, Normandy, Anzio, and El-alamein were all wars too....

Groo the Wanderer Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 You are young, inexperienced, and have filled your head with tripe from the MSM. I urge you to turn off the TV and seek out the truth about what you are posting. If you don't, someone is gonna fling a select quote form Archie Bunker at you too.... BTW - just because so many have given their lives for you to have the freedom to gravely insult them and their comrades in arms does not mean it is a smart or a good thing to do. You must learn respect, Grasshopper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
