  1. quote:Originally posted by Jaguar: Saddam is stalling. This was too easy. When the inspectors get too close, he will boot them out. He is weeks away from a nuclear weapon, I almost guarantee it, and when he has one, the middle east will explode.Hey Jag! You crack me up. He's only weeks away, says who. He wants to blow us up eh? Supposing he aquired a nuclear capable device by whatever means do you suppose he would actually use it. What would his delivery method be? Perhaps a camel? If he used it he would be nuked. The only country threatening other, and making "contingency" plans for nuking people is the Good Ole US of A. The only country that decides who and what is "allowed" to have "Weapons of Mass Destruction". Who gave them the right to decide. It's all about the oil. If there wasn't any oil do you think we would care. Here's the headline: US Invades Iraq, after a brief skirmish in which 5 US Soldiers die from friendly fire, US Captures 500000 square miles of sand dunes and rocks. LOL
  2. Ooops, sorry I should have said Saddam never attacked the Kurds with any biological or chemical weapon. This is a MYTH, used to justify continuing sanctions and support for a future war. Here is some supporting references: Did he gas his own people? Another link And if he did gas his own people where did he obtain the knowledge and materials to do so? US Sold Bio.Chem weapons Interesting how the whole anthrax thing has been swept under the rug. US government wouldn't want to admit that its their own anthrax now would they. On another note: Canada exports more crude oil to the US then it imports from the US. We also are building pipelines to the US for oil and natural gas exports, many of them have been in operation for decades. Stats Canada Weblink quote:From the above website Exports of crude oil increased by 10.3% over 1999. Exports accounted for 62.7% of all Canadian crude oil production. Canada remains one of the major suppliers of crude oil to the United States, along with Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Venezuela and Nigeria.
  3. Hell why not take out Iran, Palestine, Saudi Arabia, Phillipines, and Yugoslavia. Heck just go ahead and start World War III. The last time a country had set it's goals on taking over a similar number of countries it was called World War II. The United States government does not have friends, it has only interests. Most of them are Oil interests. Do any of you actually believe that the United States would care if there wasn't oil under the ground of many of these countries? If we stop killing these people and stop interfering in their nations/affairs, the terrorists will go home. What is the difference between a "sucicide bomber" and "errant bomb" that kills 50 people at a wedding dropped by a US fighter? Howeverer your solution is to create more problems, offend and kill more people with "errant" bombs, and try to force people to love the United States. Your United States now stands on the brink of dictatorship, your inalienable rights have been alienated. Your President is a corporate crook, whose honesty during the last elections is debatable, who is in bed with major oil companies and the military/industrial complex. The only people who benefitted from the events of 911, are the United States Government, the military and the oil industry. Would it surprise you that most nations of the world now hold the United States in very low regard. Would it surprise you that eight of the nineteen hijackers of 911 are alive? Yes, thats right, they are ALIVE, they were not in the United States on 911 and many of them are airline pilots who work for foreign countries. So just WHO was onboard, who hijacked the planes, why do the official passenger list from the airlines not list the hijackers? Why did no one claim responsibility, oh sure we claim that Osama bin laden did, but WE TRAINED HIM. Osama was trained and hired by the CIA during the war with Russia in Afgahnistan. We gave him the weapons which we are now destroying. His family is personal friends with your President, hey but this is just the tip of the iceberg. Has it occured to you that your country is accumulating more and more blood on its hands every day. You have killed more than a million Iraqi's, killed several thousand civilians as well as completely destroying the public infrastructure (roads, bridges, hospitals, power, oil) of Yugoslavia. It's all for US interests, so that makes it all right. It's okay for the CIA to assasinate foreign leaders, thats their job. So long as you get the last of the worlds oil. The Truth Hurts but don't take my word for it. What Really Happened P.S. Jaguar, Saddam has never been found to be in posession of Weapons of Mass destruction, the UN has looked but can't find them. Saddam did not use biological weapons on the Kurds, that is a myth and a fabrication. What military do you think they have left a couple hundred tanks, a few planes and few thousand soldiers. Can you name one thing that Saddam has done since the gulf war that is a demonstrable threat to this nation? I can't think of any, but we use depleted uranium weapons on his military and the civilian population is now experiencing birth defects as a result of radioactivity. Guess that makes us the good guys eh? quote:Originally posted by Jaguar: Time to take out the garbage as far as I am concerned. Take out Saddam in Iraq, take out Syria and then deal with North Korea, and then of course China, but China can be dealt with economically, no military need be used there, YET. Saddam is a danger, have no doubts of that, he has used chemical weapons against Iran, and his own civilians. He needs to be taken out, Iraq needs to be split up between the Kurds and what's left of the Iraqi population. Turkey can keep the peace in that part of the world as we create 2 separate governments in Iraq and dismantle it's military and WMD inventory. Then we leave and allow them to do whatever they need to do in order to create a reasonable government for themselves. BUT, we allow Turkey and the Kurds to keep the oil fields and split the profits between them, and if they feel like sharing with their Iraqi brothers, well, then so be it.
  4. Epsilon quote: lol! that makes me think about cheap computers that didn't have a reset button and which the power button cannot be used to close the computer, and no PSU switch. Computer freeze = unplug PSU cord. Just hold the power button in for about 6-8 seconds and the computer will power off. It's part of the ATX power supply standard.
  5. Here's the test, let's see how many of you pass. CITY OF EAST LOS ANGELES HIGH SCHOOL MATH PROFICIENCY EXAM Name: _____________________________ Gang: ___________________________ 1. Jamaal has an AK-47 with a 40-round clip. If he misses 6 out of 10 shots and shoots 13 times at each drive-by shooting, how many drive-by shootings can he attend before he has to reload? 2. Jose has 2 ounces of cocaine and he sells an 8-ball to Jackson for $320, and 2 grams to Billy for $85 a gram. What is the street value of the remaining cocaine that he doesn't cut? 3. Rufus is pimping for 3 girls. If the price is $65 for each trick, how many tricks will each girl have to turn so Rufus can pay for his $800 a day crack habit? 4. Jerome wants to cut his 1/2 pound of heroin to make 20% more profit. How many ounces of cut will he need to reach his goal? 5. Willis gets $200 for stealing a BMW, $50 for a Chevy, and $100 for a 4x4. If he steals 2 BMW's and 3 4x4's, how many Chevys will he have to steal to make $800? 6.

  6. Then again the US gov't could be lying. Naahh they "NEVER" do that. Too Weird Whatreallyhappened
  7. Taliban Summer Games This has to hurt
  8. It would be nice to see a very limited newtonian physics model added to fighters. I miss the old afterburner slide found in Wing Commander. You could set a course, then while holding down a button maintain that precise course, but you were able to change your angle to open fire on another ship as you flew by on your original course. It was a hard skill to master but quite enjoyable. When the button was released the ship could return to it's orignal heading and allow you to resume flying. If someone was chasing you, you could hold the button down, spin your ship 180 degrees and let them have it. Sort of turns your craft into a pta turret. It would be reminiscent of some of the babylon 5 combat scenes with the whitestars ripping apart some large ships hull (while flying sideways). Who cares if large ships have newtonian physics, they don't turn worth a damn anyways. Just my 2 cents
  9. Still Here... Just got broadband wireless Pings < 300ms and I live in the middle of nowhere. Whooohooo! Kal Drakath Black Prince
  10. First off Derek great game, I'm thoroughly enjoying myself, the depth of the game is totally immersive. Can't wait for multiplayer. Here are a few things I've noticed. A few of these are vital others not so much, but I'm sending them all to you anyways. I am using 1.0.0.2 RC7 patch. Deleted. None of these are problems. This thread is for posting problems only please. [ 12-06-2001: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ]
  11. All Hail LordDavid What the hell, there are way too many humans in this game. Please hereby accept my humble application into the Gammulan fleet. It may be a brief existence but it should be fun. My experience is limited to the demo's but I'm getting fairly good, hope Derek has made those stations tougher . I've been lurking here for months, all you guys are insane. Found a link from the home of the underdogs abandonware site for bc3000 and started reading, haven't stopped. P.S. My name is Ryan and I'm a vcfaholic. Derek do you ever get a chance to sleep? - Herbie (AKA Herbicidal)
