I allow myself to ''Have a conscience'' as that is what seperates us from the animal kingdom that you so plainly belong in

I never was,nor ever have even desired to be a reporter, those reporters I met in the field were indeed brave men and women with principals unlike you.They told the truth that was censored from the actual innocent public who in many case were sacrificing their sons on the altar on a nations leaders meglomania and American hype in Vietnam and all the other places the U.S.A. have screwed up. Bay of Pigs, My Lai massacre and many more too,do they ring a bell to you sir ?

Such matters are honourable conduct in your eyes I wonder ?

You may live in a fantasy world, I do not nor ever did I feel the same goes for others who have replied to your post.

''Crossing the line'' is the expression you used. Does that infer that you crossed the equetar on some jolly on a cruise ship perhaps and participated in the frivolities associated with such an event ?

Dare I ask if you are above the age of military service or are you just a plain loud mouthed cowardly heckler sir ?

Or should SIR be spelt CUR in your case ?

I honoured my commission to the full as did many others .

What about you ?
Good God, man! Where did you learn to write such drivel?

Two things:

1) I now am 100% sure you never served in any capacity in any military anywhere. Your ridiculously worded post only serves as evidence to that fact. I have my doubts about re_fuse too. Too much bluster about nothing.

2)The time to have a conscience is when you sign the enlistment papers, not when ordered to do something you don't like. While you and I both don't like what has happened in Iraq, it certainly hasn't been deemed illegal, no matter how much you want it to be. What kind of military would a nation have if its soldiers were allowed to pick and choose which conflicts in which they would go to fight? Would it be like the British military? The Australian army perhaps? I think it must then be like the Canadian forces.

I stand by my original statement. There should be NO leniency with this coward, not matter how much conscience he decided to gain when finding out he must go to Iraq.

You know I would have no hesitation in pulling the trigger if I was fighting for my life or the life of others , but if they sent me to subdue some heresy in a third world sovereign nation and ordered me to shoot defenceless civilian's who were acting in defiance of the military invaders I would refuse that order and have no hesitation at all in using my firearm to arrest the person giving that order and if need be shooting that person to prevent them killing non combatants.

Re: Bush accuses Iran of destabilising the Middle East

A wonderful respomse Nunkingfutz,clearly the money spent on your education was a waste as we all can see.

I presume your next step is to don your little pixie hood with KKK on it and go and heckle that dammed darky fellow who wants to run America for the next 4 to 8 years.

Is it possible that your parents did not have the blessing of marriage lines at the time of your conception ?

I was actually born out of wedlock and as a result have not had to work at that which you have become,what I am is what was my birthright,are you trying to emulate my brilliant success ?

Oh but for a short space of time you would have been but a brief messy period in your mothers life and we poor souls would have indeed been spared your inane ramblings,humourous as they are.

Some have greatness thrust upon them,you sir have had it thrust up you.

Presumably your parents or possibly your grandparents were discharged from the Gestapo because of the barbaric ideas that you have certainly inherited.

I actually enjoy your rhetoric which to my mind is actually rather tongue in cheek,perhaps you should sign your self ,Disgusted of Dover, or possibly Worried of Worthing ,Frustated of Frankfurt, or Tel A Viv Rotwellier in the future.

Try a letter to ''The Times'' sir,no doubt that would indeed ease the pressure on your solitary brain cell.

Is it possible that you are able to speak the truth,know the truth and actually answer questions that have been asked of you ?

Perchance your social skills are developing thus enabling you to possibly join the human race in the distant future ?

Possibly you are wearing white feathers at this moment in time,you remind me of a rather strange Welsh university lecturer who lives and works here in Thailand indeed is this yet another persona manifesting its self in your paronoid mind and renaming yourself yet again ?

I and no doubt others too await your erudite reply,possibly that reply would be in soi dog language or temple dog language maybe ?

Sure. I retract my doubts but I still think you bluster about nothing.

Yes, you sound like an honorable enough fella, but wtf does this have to do with the coward who thinks he should be able to pick and choose which action he sees? Look, things are bad enough in Iraq without having to resort to tall tales to make it look worse. Any "defenseless" civilians shot at were the ones that would not stop at road blocks, etc. To make it sound as if soldiers walk the streets shooting at anything that moves is downright ludicrous. Is it common practice in the Australian military to refuse orders? Sounds to me like you would be dangerous to those around you.

i would not be so presumptuous as to even guess at what was going through his mind ....But it is his mind and a person does have the inalienable right to follow their own mind.

I would not know that ..having to rely on the media which has no interest in depicting objective reality.

I suppose those who were in their houses unarmed at the time should have learnt to stop at road blocks .

If an illegal order is given then it does happen.
The Charge for refusing orders is worded " Disobeying a lawful command" ..... If the command was unlawful and you refused ..... Then your not going to be charged because the order was not lawful ....and the person giving the order is liable for court marshall.

As you are probably aware the Nuremberg defence does not work in the modern world.

Yes, it does happen but it rarely happens as a result of orders given. And, yes, I have been on tour, but it was long ago and not something I usually discuss. As you probably know, I saw and did things that will remain with me forever.

Of course it happens, but I'm not aware that it happens often. If you refuse a direct order, you'd better be damned sure that it is illegal. If your refusal costs lives, then god help you because no one else will. At least that's the way it was when I served.

The article I linked did say this man went to Afghanistan, if I remember correctly. So it's not as if he's a coward in the sense of trying to avoid combat.

edit in quote from article:

Quote:


Chiroux joined the US army straight out of high school nearly six years ago, and worked his way up from private to sergeant.

He served in Afghanistan, Germany, Japan, and the Philippines and was due to be deployed next month in Iraq.

On Thursday, he refused to go, saying he considers Iraq an illegal war.
Personally I have my doubts about the legitimacy of the Afghanistan conflict as well, but that's anothr story.

Re: Bush accuses Iran of destabilising the Middle East

And what about the genocide in Burma? Who will step up? The only thing I am sorry for is the landing on Normandy Beach, 64 years ago. If it weren't for that, we wouldn't have so many pedophile TEFL from Europe, parading around, telling us Americans how we should run our country. FYI, America is not a socialist' nation; most of Europe is--and you can have your 10 dollar shepard's pie (would be with shnitzel if it weren't for our B-29's) and warm putrid beer, and boiled veggies. I wouldn't go there to throw up. In case the Prathom kids didn't tell you, the King is American, too.

Spot on. I've noticed as well that there are no threads and no mention of the situation in Burma. Why don't the circle-jerkers want to talk about that? They're busy doing thread after boring thread of George Bush and bad religion.

Your Pièce de résistance sir:

Re: Bush accuses Iran of destabilising the Middle East

I didn't look on the virtual pub forum which is where the largest thread resides and I missed the 6-post beast here in the Soap Box. The other two threads you listed had nothing to do with the cyclone and the aftermath in Myanmar.
