Will 3000 be enough?

[linazelle]

Will 3000 dead American troops (because 1 American life = 30 Iraqi/foreigners lives :sarcasm:) be a fair enough trade to equal the 3000 who perished on 9/11?

Is that a fair enough trade for them?

1. The Dragon is never sated.

And that old Dragon has been waiting for this for a while.

2. 3000 is absurd. People should take to the streets if we kill more

of our "own" than OBL killed.

3. We should be in the streets, anyway.

It took about 15,000 in my 'war' before the tide started turning.

And we still lost 40,000 more before it was over.

The US is in for the long haul. We are not building all of those permanent bases just for practice.

4. Private ownership of global resources needs a well-armed 'enforcer.'

The common public ownership of those resources makes the country doing it a target for Amerika, Inc.
