omg, thats just.........nasty....pff barely surviving , just to get caught op in a second explosion.....man, FUCKING TERRORISTS!!!
BUT, if I was her boyfriend, i would tell her to stay put, find somewhere save, like stay with the ambulance or something, and i would pick her up PERSONALLY, but then again it should've never happend
@chaoskiddo , haha that was funny, i loved the french and irak part
Ahh a beautiful political fist fight online...
Just to throw it out there, how many people believe that it is partly the lopsided advancement in military technology that has spurned these terrorist techniques?
I mean, if there is no real hope to winning the battle then "take as many down with you as possible" ala suicide bombers.
If military targets are so hardened and impossible to strike, such that your goals will never possibly get accomplished or your cause recognized, "aim at the weak castle wall"
If you face snipers, Unmanned bombers, stealth bombers, guns that allow their users to shoot around corners, and shit loads of air support and armored vehicles, and your group only has AKs and some C4, can you really go out there and face them in battle? "Discretion is the better part of valor" and employ the same stealth (albeit by different means) that your enemy enjoys.
The problem is that war used to be about soldiers fighting soldiers until one group admitted defeat. Warriors were the ones who were supposed to die in war, not civilians. By protecting and armoring and making it harder to kill soldiers than it is to kill civilians, perhaps we are unknowingly thrusting our civilians out into the fray instead. Modern war favors terrorism by forgetting that soldiers are supposed to be the ones dying in order to end conflict. The new doctrine is that soldiers must survive and be protected in order to attain victory.
The problem is what to do about it...
cities need better military defenses. i know we want our freedoms but we may need to lose a little personal comfort for better protection.
Reign of Fire (a movie about dragons in London) was not shown today on ABC, and instead some gay movie that starred Frankie Munoz was shown. Obviously from the fear that someone, somewhere was going to bitch about it if the movie were shown.
I hate people.
Or maybe they just realized that that is a TERRIBLE movie and should never be shown. Seriously, if ABC won't show it, it's got to be incredibly horrendous...Quote:

Chalk another one up to the uber-sensitive conservative "upholders of morality and censorship"
Who remembers when they wouldn't show Cowboy Funk, Waltz for Venus or Sympathy for the Devil on Adult Swim after 9/11? I mean, the first one is semi-understandable (tho they didn't air that episode for like 8 months after it was supposed to show...) And Waltz had a minor scene with airplane hijacking in its start (and, to Cartoon Network's credit, did air in the next running of the season) but Sympathy for the Devil had no terrorists, nothing even remotley similair to attacking cities. It was just the title. Couldn't have that polluting my impressionable 15 year old mind...

actually, bebop did have quite a nack for predicting future disasters...
in the begnning of the movie, i think, there was a scene about someone trying to blow up the twin towers (teddy bomber, i think that was his name), and in one of the later episodes, there was the columbia space shuttle almost getting blown up becuase of the heat-isolation parts.
Session 22 (Episode 22 to you stiff cats with no jazz in your bones) was Cowboy Funk, with the Teddy Bomber and the bombing of multiple large buildings, one structure having two huge identical towers (design is different tho from WTC)Quote:

Session 19 Wild Horses, had the remake of the Columbia shuttle.
Session 8: Waltz for Venus starts with a hijacking of a plane.
Session 4: Gateway Shuffle has a biological virus & extremist movement
But alot of these ideas had been around for along time. To say that Bebop predicted anything would be going far too out there.
Oh, and they have been making some raids on suspected homes in Britain in regards to teh attack, although all 4 bombers have been confirmed dead, 'martryed' at the sites.

edit: and i don't say these bomb's are for freedom. but if you fight a war for "freedom" you won't be holding hands too.
On NPR this morning they said that London Police shot a suspect that was fleeing.. Though I could be mistaken..
And now, guess what? It might have been part of an investigation, but now its going around that the man may not have been a bomber... (perhaps he was related or connected with the terrorists though?) (or maybe the cops just had an itchy trigger finger after all thats happened there?)Quote:

Good Report on 'Suspect" Shot by Police
