• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Prediction for the not too distant future
[font="verdana, arial, helvetica"]Not too long after this war ends, there will be movies made about it.
At least one of those movies will have scenes that portray some of the things that have happened, the Iraqis shoorting and going behind white flags and coming out again and shooting, wearing civilian clothes over their unifors, faking surrenders to set ambushes, etc....

When that happens, some Arab-Amerians, Muslims, etc...will raise a major stink saying they find it offesnive, even though that is what really happened.

That's for sure. It's a good thing that most WWII movies were made prior to Oliver Stone and Co. coming along, or the Germans and the Japanese would win in every single movie. :rolleyes:

I wonder how many people remember that the exact same thing happened to our troops in somalia. Men with guns hiding behind women and children is not unique to iraqi's, but that doesn't make it any less disgusting.
