My cousin has just had their first child and I can assure you he didn’t want to go back to Iraq but as he is a professional solder, he has to do as he is ordered.

While he is in Iraq, if there is ANYTHING he can do to increase his safety, I say more power to him.

I’ve heard some tall stories but if you think our 30,000 strong military force could stop the worlds 4th largest army, I’d like to know what your on.

We have Bucklys of ever being any form of a deterrent to Indonesia if they want to come here, but while the yanks have the power they do, countries like Indonesia think twice before doing what they want.

Cool, I hope Indonesia does invade...... imagine it ...........

we can buy fireworks again
smokes @ $0.60 a pack
beer @ $5.00 a six pack
happy ending massages
get done for speeding - $20 on the side gets you off
Taxis are like $2.00 to anywhere
petrol is 40 cents a litre
I'd be taller than 90% of the population
bootleg dvd's
I could pay some kid 5 bucks a day to do my job
cool noodle type food
They'd probably bring some monkeys with them. (a major flaw with the Australian wildlife scene is the lack of monkeys) Monkeys rock.
Hot german backpacker chicks would come over here and strip off all nudie like on the beach.
Don't have to wear a helmut on motor bikes
we'd all be stinkin rich

There's heaps more, later

Oh yeah,

also, Schapelle could come home.

It cant be that bad a place they drive Land Rovers over there, its a LWB its just past the bit where they drive over the median strip.

Just a little bit of bump drafting, no harm done to the hummer, what about the buckled bootlid and broken tail lights on the white (was it a Kia)

Colateral damage?

Shorty.

not going the 9 yards on this one....

from my experience working with the yanks......

nice gear, great units, exclelent capabilities....

no brains at the soldier level and no cross capabilities at any level... Id trade a batallion of yank infantry in hummers for a section of aussie soldiers on foot.

That about sums it up for me to Dave, although, the last bit sounds back to front to me. I personally think you would need more than a battalion of yank infantry in hummers to take on just about any section of poor old Aussie grunts.
In my family, if you did not wear a tight blue skin, then you better damn well wear a baggy green one son. Older brother Vietnam vet, younger uncle Korea, older uncle on Kakoda, most of the rest of us were Navy.

Shorty.

My pennyworth..
Churchill NEVER said we were expendable. His country was in deep ***** and he tried to keep our 7th Div in North Africa. He is guilty of putting his countries priorities ahead of ours.
Think about it, would a politician really say something even near that?
It really narks me when misinformation gets repeated.
I bet no-one can find any credible proof.

Also, those Yanks, say what you will about them , but if you ask me, they are driving like that out of pure fear.
Oh and the indonesians. They are a disorganised rabble, especially the army. I'd be more worried about the melting ice caps than them ever trying to invade.
Maybe they will all get on thier ferries and drown on the trip.
