You acted allone with UK like cowboys

How do you act alone, but with someone else?
We also "acted alone" with Poland, Australia, Romania, El Salvador, Ukraine, Denmark, South Korea, Italy, Spain etc.

Yep , we were alone with the UK. And the Poles. And the Austrailans, Japanese (non-combat) and South Koreans. And a few others that I'm sure that you don't want mentioned. And just a word of advice about American culture. A cowboy , to us , is a hard working , honest man who works with his hands, tips his hat to a lady , and is never afraid to do the right think. So when you call me a cowboy, I'll take it as a compliment. Ronald Regan was a cowboy. So was Gene Autrey, Roy Rodgers and John Wayne. If you are going to insult me, try harder. [:D]

I'm done. Done with this thread, done with this forum, done with the whole damn thing. DONE!!! And Pauk, feel free to put your speedo back on and crawl out of your rat-hole. You must have balls the size of the planet Mars to post pictures of yourself wearing those on this forum and then call me "gay".
You can take your little buddy Castor by the hand and do the Snoopy Dance because you now have this place all to yourselves. Enjoy!
Buh-Bye!

There were no ANY chemical or biological weapons in Iraq. There was no UN approvall to intervene. Why woul'd any country obbey UN after that "one man" show. Saddam was sick bastard, but that was just not the way.... Now we will get an Iranian clone in Iraq instead of secular governmant as it were...
And that has to do anything with the WITP forum, so we must end this quarrel [:-]

They didn't approve, nor did they recind prior given approval. At no point in the origianl declaration from1991 did the UN even mention WMD. While it's true that the UN didn't approve , they also never formerly disapproved.


I'll end it when you end it. Or a mod has a chance. And "WE" won't get anything in Iran. Last time I looked , Iran was an independant country.

Walk away mate, leave it alone. Time for this thread to die.

It was not intended to be insult...
I'm not trying to insult anybody, and if it looked as insult, I apologise!
My favourite cowboy is Clint Eastwood [8D]
In my country the syntax "cowboy approach" is sometimes used for people who solve all problems by force, and that is what I ment in my previous post...

We look different at some things, and there is no any need that we continue to fight over politics. But I hope we will discuss some WITP related theme in the future (when is it going to be out ). It is sad how people become irrational when they talk about politics...
So, truce, fellow admiral? [;)]

I haven't felt this to be an argument , but a debate. I have always loved civil debate.I understand your reasons for being passonate about sanctions and no fly zones. I'm guessing that you've had personal experince , and that is never a pleasant thing. If I'm right , then you have even more right to be displeased with me, as I was involved in enforcing sactions in your part of the world in the mid 1990's. I'd be very intrested in hearing the point of view of someone from the other side. And you are right , this discussion should either be ended or see a change of venue, such as a PM or e-mail. Which I invite you or anyone else who would like to discuss outside of this forum.

Any chance of an out right peace treaty, rather than ceasefire or truce (I don't have a lot of faith in either)?

Got two requests to lock the thread - guess that is enough - eh?
