Control

I am surprised. Where are all of the "I told you so people" and the USA haters, bashers, and "you are getting your ass kicked" types?

40% of the desert you mean

and btw I'm not an american basher

pathfinder is a gangster !!

i'm here my friend

hmmm.. no comment
but at least you seem to admit that logistics is slowing it down.
remember I told it to you before the news did, ha

They're so shocked you're admitting your mistakes, they don't know what to say.

The militias are causing troubles. We need to regroup and cater our gameplan to their guerrilla tactics and then go in for the kill.

If it wasn't for the guerrilla tactics, we'd be kicking their ass. However, this is "war", they're doing what they need to to survive. We'll just need to change that...

theking since you know more things on how the whole operation takes place, can you explain me what causes so many accidents?

Most british soldiers got killed from friendly fires. I have a feeling that combined forces in such operations do not offer anything. Probably the result with only US soldiers would be pretty much the same now with less accidents.

friendly fire accidents happen in every war.

fuck, imagine how many soldiers killed their own in the old days, specially in the sword swinging days, battles axes are hard to stop once youre in full swing or Civil War type of battles.

not sure why it happens or causes it, but its happened since day one of war.

2 marines were killed yesterday when they were run over by a tank...while sleep..

Accidents happen, period. During the 1st Gulf War there was almost as many, maybe even more, as I have forgotten the exact number, killed by accident during the Desert Shield build up as their were KIA's during Desert Storm and of course during Desert Storm a large percentage were victims of "friendly fire", which is an oxymoron. "Shit happens."

After you made yourself as ridiculous as you did, we all just felt too sorry for you

i havent heard it till now......



I see, probably the media coverage at the moment brings more attention to the accidents than ever.

I was run over the second day into the ground battle during Desert Storm. Ended my military career and fucked me up for the remainder of my life.

Well I was right about the fact that the ground war and air campaign would be almost simultaneous, no prolonged bombing campaign as in the 1st Gulf war, and if it were not for the "ifs" I could have been correct. What has been accomplished up to this point in time has never before been accomplished in the history of war.

This really has nothing to do about the war, but it's an interesting thing to hear about the media...

Since you're not from the United States, you might not have heard of this, BUT a couple summers ago (I'm thinking 2000), there was a huge shark scare in the United States. A couple people were attacked by sharks. I think a few even died.

Anyway, the media was reporting new attacks and potential attacks practically every day. Every year before this particular summer, you never heard anything about shark attacks. Well, people started to get really upset about this "epidemic of shark attacks" and many thought there were too many sharks in the ocean, maybe it's time to kill some of them.

After doing a little research, I learned that this particular summer actually had LESS shark attacks than most summers and the shark population was actually declining to dangerous levels, instead of the opposite. Turns out the extra coverage of the media made the people upset. You really can't blame the people, if you suddenly see all kinds of shark attacks, what would you think?

I remember that. I have said it before and will say it again, the media exploits the news and in the case of the shark attacks their exploitation resulted in misleading people into thinking that there was something out of the ordinary about the number of shark attacks, when there wasn't. Much like their coverage of this war.

theking is a coward

you're no war hero.. you're just pathfinder, a message board personality that faked his own death =]

don't you ever play any online games? someone runs in front of you, or in an urban environment you're running helter-skelter, run into a teammate and perforate them, because they came by surprise or what-not?


i'm pretty good at not tking, but there's a lot of chaos out there some time. i fear it, but it will probably get worse when they enter baghdad.

I think they're just waiting til the end of 30 days as we continue to fight, to see what your next prediction will be..

Updated predictions are always right.. eventually..

It is difficult for me to understand why some of you people are so obessed with PF. It is difficult for me to understand why you cannot accept the fact that a seventy year old man died of a stroke. Doing a quick search of PF's posts I quickly found at least one post where he had spoke about having had strokes.

On 07-02-2002 PF posted this and actually understated the extent of damage that having strokes had caused him. He had many strokes over a period of several years. It was clear to those that knew him that his memory had been affected, but probably not as clear to those that did not know him as he would have appeared to still be sharp to them. The last stroke that he had prior to his death left him partially paralyzed and with slurred speech. The doctor had told us that he would undoubedtly have a stroke that would kill him and there was not alot that could be done about it. We, the family, were prepared for his death on any given day. He also was a diabetic. At least two people that are members of this board knew him (three counting me) and at least one other member other than myself has posted that he is in fact dead. Read it, learn it, know it and get the fuck over it.

Actually this is new information that I cannot recall ever hearing about. I am old and I have had a few minor strokes that have affected my memory to some extent, so I am not intellectually as sharpe as I used to be. It is possible that this info disappeared as did the "piano lessons".

I am intrigued by it and will read some more about it. One thing I did run across on one of the links:

http://www.thethresher.com/indiscreet.html

"The most frequently cited and circulated source of Bush-Nazi investigations/conspiranoia, George Bush-The Unauthorized Biography (a biography of George Herbert Walker Bush) by Webster Griffin Tarpley and Anton Chaitkin, published in 1992, while well-documented, is also the most suspect. The problem is that Tarpley and Chaitkin are colleagues of the political cult leader Lyndon LaRouche. Not surprisingly, they insist on overlaying otherwise solidly researched data with wildly speculative interpretations. The book, originally published by LaRouche's Executive Intelligence Review, though "out of print," is ubiquitous on the web, and freely used and quoted by Bush conspiranoia buffs of all persuasions."

This makes me think that alot of what is said about this subject will have to be taken with a grain of salt, but apparently the government did take control of the company.

Thank you for the compliment. PF was a great man, a unique man, a mans man, and a warrior. I have spent most of my life trying to emmulate him (unsuccessfully I might add), may he rest in peace.

By the way.

Hey Num Skull pathfinder is dead. And you have no ideal what Pathfinder nor theking's military career was.

AIRBORNE!
