I have been avoiding this thread for days, and for good reason, its pointless, but ,,,,,,,(I dont know how to do the fancy cut and paste) these comments by "thebbz" about "flameing Iran", or "slapping anround" , or "going and helping", are,,,, well,,,to be honest,,,,,,,  enough to make me never even return to CH.com. If I stated whats on my mind, I am sure i would get "jonnyed"(locked out).  I am not for, anyone, or against anything but more killing. The statements made by this guy , well.... sheesh, send your kids pal,,, leave mine out of it! Better yet,, hop a plane dude,, go get em!         Tuck   OH and by the way, before you start screaming about about anti American or any other drivel that may spew from your mouth, you have no clue as to the service record of me or my family.

Tuck... I know I've made a number of insensitive remarks in this thread, and I guess I owe you an apology.

No one wants war, least of all, those who are called to fight it. It is a tragedy that civilians are caught in the crossfire, whether they be Israeli or Palestinian. It's frustrating, and of course, passions run high in discussions like these.

I hope your sons are safe. God bless and keep you all.

Frank,, NO sir,, you do NOT owe me an apology! we all, EVERY last one of us, is entitled to his or her opinion!!!!!! NO matter how wrong yours are!  (Kidding dude). As I told Thebbz in my P.M. , I have numerous family members that have faught in NUMEROUS wars and they are ALL messed up either physically or mentally. I simply fear for my sons, if those fears are well founded or not is really not the issue. I still fear.   Besides, I just read your response post concerning "old timers", and, ANY Stones fan is a friend of mine!!!!!!!!!!!!   Tuck

Tuck,

I cant say I can follow your post, or what you are trying to say...... might be that it due to English not being my native tongue....

Still....

I find it in-correct to use the phrase “I am sure i would get "jonnyed"(locked out)”
it is most disrespectful, sarcastic, and out of place…….

Portraying a situation, Locked out, giving it a name, the way you have used it is un-acceptable……

Should I turn and use your words, bashing (in directly) the way you do, (is) enough to make me never even return to CH.com.

It will not make me go, I just try to make a point…..  

Michael

WHAT??????  First of all, My comment referring to "jonnyed" was meant with TOTAL respect!!!!! This was the first person i ever coresponded with on this site, and my respect for him is huge. By using that term, I was indicating how i was tempted to use FOUL language, something that Jonny uses elequenly, and simply flows from his tongue! SECONDLY,, for you to equate any of that with the topic at hand,,,WAR!!!,, borders on moronic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Tuck    P.S  yea,, Jonny, I was tempted to end this with the same two word phrase you last used, but will-power prevailed!  but,,,,, the thought is what matters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh settle down now. We are all frightened and concerned over the situation. No one....NO ONE want's more bloodshed, except those that are causing the situation. I dont expect all to agree with my opinion, but it is how I feel. I am fed up with terrorists, killing innocent people. They are not going to stop, we have to stop them. That is what Isreal is doing. If I were a good Christian I would let them kill me and enjoy the benefits of everlasting life. I cannot do that.
I feel that I must defend my family. Should Osama or any other terrorist happen to get in front of my weapon I would not hesitate.
You dont owe me an apology for your opinion. I wont apologize for mine. I did my duty in the military and intend on doing my duty for my family. If that means sacrificing my life for theirs so be it. Gladly.
I will not lie down and let religous fanatics harm them. I will say I was right for once. I stated a few days ago that Hezbollah would start in. They now have begun lobbing rockets in from Lebanon.
  We dont need to start in on each other, we have bigger battles to fight. You are all my friends and I value each opinion. Shocked It makes us individuals, as God intended. Being able to discuss this as gentlemen separates us from those with the rockets. Wink

I think that's enough.  This is a very heated subject to begin with, I don't see a reason to split hairs on something that is NOT important.

I've been watching this thread with a lot of interest too. A very volatile thread handled quite well. Damn BZZ......your wisdom astounds me at time:

Militants fire rockets into Israel after cease-fire
Source: CNN

JERUSALEM (CNN) -- Militants fired six rockets into southern Israel and exchanged gunfire with troops in northern Gaza Sunday, hours after Israel declared a unilateral cease-fire in the Palestinian territory, an Israeli spokesman said.

The Qassam rockets were fired into Sderot at 9 a.m. -- seven hours after Israel's cease-fire went into effect. The rockets did not injure anyone, and Israeli aircrafts destroyed the rocket launcher soon afterward, an Israeli military spokesman said.

The gunfire exchange in northern Gaza occurred after Palestinian gunmen opened fire on Israeli forces, the Israeli military said. Troops returned fire.

Israel launched an offensive in Gaza just over three weeks ago, with the stated intent of stopping the barrage of rockets -- primarily the short-range homemade Qassam rocket -- fired from the territory into southern Israel by Hamas fighters.

At 2 a.m. Sunday, Israel declared a cease-fire in Gaza. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said Israel was prepared to respond if Hamas militants continue fighting in Gaza.

"If foes decide to continue to fight against us, then we will be ready and we shall consider ourselves justified in replying," he said.

Hamas leaders responded, saying they did not consider Olmert's declaration a cease-fire as long as Israeli troops remain in the Palestinian territory.

I was thinking the exact same thing when I read it. Seems strange.
