3)The fact remains. Most in the military are complete ignorant fools when it comes to geography, history, current events, and anything that doesn't involve sex and drinking.
4)And what about the treatment of the USA to its own soldiers when it routinely uses them as guinea pigs. I'm sure you have heard of good ole Agent Orange or testing nuclear radiation on soldiers as the government did during the Cold War?
5)You somehow equate pro-war as patriotism, when I am here telling you that it is the very military heads that are responsible for some very un-patriotic behavior (such as testing weaponry on its own soldiers).
6)America had nuclear tipped missiles and bunker-busters in its war against Iraq.
7)Secondly, are you claiming that America has never used WMDs before? Please answer this question.
8)Cluster bombs are bombs that explode into fragments and are used to inflict the MAXIMUM number of civilian casualties. They have no use in conventional warfare.
9)Yeah, I'm sure you get happy when you go bomb people even though the war has been deemed illegal, the UN is against it, and the Coalition broke international law. There's a term for that: it's called state terrorism.
10)Answer one last question and you will categorically lose this "debate": Which country on the face of this earth possesses the most WMDs, nukes, and any other banned weaponry?
Good luck. I'm done with you.
