ViperSRT3g 224 Posted January 16, 2009 Bye I suppose, even though I won't be leaving for another 2 weeks or so. And I doubt I'll be in any danger while I'm there. The average amount of IED attacks per day across the entire country of Iraq is less than 15. And even then, most of them aren't very harmful. Share this post Link to post
ViperSRT3g 224 Posted January 16, 2009 I know exactly when and where I'm going. And I have intel from a Lt. Col. in the Army overseeing all the attacks in the country. I'm damn sure I know what I'm talking about. Share this post Link to post
ViperSRT3g 224 Posted January 16, 2009 I am going to the Baharea area. I believe I've said that somewhere else >_> Share this post Link to post
Speedskater 167 Posted January 16, 2009 Know anyone who's going with you? Share this post Link to post
Kenshyn 638 Posted January 17, 2009 Because they are fighting a fucked up religious holy war. They got mad because we stepped foot on their "holy soil." And oil. That's all you need to know, Zhuinden. But really, we are only still over there because we're trying to fix their government, and militiamen keep blowing shit up. I don't understand why more people are being deployed to Iraq if Obama's plan is to pull them out? Share this post Link to post
Major Zhuinden 128 Posted January 17, 2009 As I recall they went there originally because they had been building nuclear warheads, in the middle of the desert. Though, no nuclear warheads were found. Share this post Link to post
Kenshyn 638 Posted January 17, 2009 That was just an excuse to go over there in retaliation of September 11th, 2001. We never declared war on the middle east. The United States has not declared war since World War II. If we should be worried about any country, it's China and Korea. Share this post Link to post
Major Zhuinden 128 Posted January 17, 2009 September 11th 2001 was merely a planned fake attack by the USA to make people fear terrorism (people in fear are easier to control), and to make the reason to attack Iraq legit. Share this post Link to post
ViperSRT3g 224 Posted January 17, 2009 Aside from this argument going on in my thread, my mission just may be one of the last to Iraq. Just FYI since your still wondering what we're doing still going there, these missions are planned half a year to a year in advanced, they don't get changed just because we get a change in President.

ViperSRT3g 224 Posted January 28, 2009 See you all laters. Hopefully I'll be able to get online later, no clue what the internet situation is like in Iraq. Hope to see you all soon. :) Share this post Link to post
