So your urging people to support unconditionally the military forces of the US and its allies does not stand up to even one simple question. Interesting. 😉

I feel comfortable that I have adequately expressed my opinion on this subject. And, I might add, I sent a "God Bless You" out to you with much sincerity 😉

Do you send out one of your sincere "God bless yous" to the Indonesian Army?

Don't be a hypocrite. If Landisqueen had directly said "God bless you FMF", you would have torn her up over that. Her heart is in the right place. Can't you just be happy with that and not crap all over her heartfelt thoughts? She SAID "allies"... what more do you want? A personal "God bless"?? Like I said, if she had done that, you would have attacke ...[text shortened]... for a reason to be a horse's ass. There are real people behind these avatars you mouth off to.

Hey Suzianne 🙂
Actually, I figured the "God" word was going to be the word that might get some people's dander up. Not the word "unconditionally!"

I think you are bursting to talk about the Indonesian Army...so go ahead...have the floor. I am certain that I was absent from school the day my history teacher presented his lesson on the Indonesian Army. So please...educate me. Assuming you think I can be educated...

And then, and only then, I will decide if they are worthy of a "God Bless You"

No, I am not "bursting" to talk about anything. I am just curious as to whether even you reckon your sweeping post-atrocity jingoistic blather about 'unconditional support' for this that and other withstands any scrutiny. 😉

So you don't believe I am questioning you about the word "unconditionally" and to what actions/entities you seek to apply it? You think the issue I have raised with you is "God"?

What about us that don't? Don't we get an answer?

Yes. That's why I have asked her about the military forces in the country where I live ~ they have been allies in 'War On Terror' that the US declared.

Huh? Did you read what I wrote? It was quite clear, or so I thought.

But that's what I am doing: I am engaging in a civil, provocative, genuine discussion with you.

Yes I did. And the way I reworked it and tossed it back at you was an error. Sorry.

A definite no on that.

There needs to be an understood, mutual respect between people when they are sharing thoughts, ideas...in my eyes, anyhow...

Clearly, neither of you feel the same.

And that is your prerogative

See the funny thing is...I'm not feeling it FMF. You do not come across that way to me 😉

I only cited them because of where I live. So let's return that example to the shelf, and instead mention other more visible allies of the US. Saudi Arabia and Israel. Should we support them unconditionally?
