    I fear you've fallen into a semantic pit of sorts.

    Homo ferricus simply means "iron man" in Latin. I believe that was his previous handle, but I don't recall the reason for his changing it.

    Regards,

    John Kettler

    John,

    Your caution is classy and graceful, yet discrediting. Even Syrians know full well the net meaning of Homo ferricus, its Latin roots and the use of titillating nicks on the board.

    Don’t’ forget, it was the Arabs who gave the west all the Greek and Latin translations of note in the first place, be they scientific, of the arts or mathematical.

    It is John who failed to recognize LoneSyrian’s intentional employment of Semantic gymnastics, for our Homo is of anything but “iron”. smile.gif

    still completely puzzled as to how the hell you can tell my tone without hearing pitch differences and modulations in my voice.

    One’s first reaction to such an asinine, moronic question is don’t dignify. But in the interest of not disappointing and maintaining the notion of the Ugly Syrian, here’s “how the hell”: I am prescient enough to ascertain Homo Ferry is one gargantuan, double Preparation H a hole.

    Guess what, I determined all the above without a dictionary and a sound device. And Homo is your first name, it says it right there, look. So what do you mean Homo “jokes” and “rules”, if your first name is a joke don’t blame me.

    Reminds me of Mario Cuomo, the once Governor of New York when he ran for president; so as to over-emphasize his ethnicity, the Republicans kept calling him on news talk shows, Mario, Mario, Mario, Mario, then the governor snapped and said “don’t call me Mario”, after which Dan Quayle responded, but Mario, that’s your name. Dig Homo?

    And please take your infantile semantic parsing and go back to kindergarten.

    In terms of laziness or lack thereof, you’re just chuck tootin’ full of vigilance aren’t you Homo?

    You’re a light weight sport, I’ve said all there’s to be said to you, Homo.

    Ahem, not really, it may be a case of them damn Dogfaced Americans barking cockamamied malarky?

    Besides, if the majority of Syrians were to be whiter they’d be ghosts. Your Hispanic browns exponentially outnumber ours ratio wise.

    So am I to believe that you lonesyrian, are the only person in Syria who reads/speaks english beyond a basic level?
    Dog is to believe the internet is a new medium in Syria, only Arabic words and pictures within it are thoroughly scrutinized. Moreover, official Syria’s premier foreign language is French not English.

    The few, fluent in English intelligence personnel are busy counter surveilling and electronically eavesdropping on the American, Australian, and British embassies. And to prove it, I’m not sweatin’ while I post in English.

    In other words, and to put it more decorously and politely, I personally don’t give a rat’s friggin’ ass what some Dogfaced okie chooses to believe.

    YahkeeDog, if my impression on the stars bit is false, I’m very glad I stood corrected, all the greater accomplishment then, and thank you. I personally only heard one complain about gas.

    Homo, I’m brain un-washed enough to admit I made a mistake on the La Bell Marines casualty count. Considering your tone however, I won’t even bother trying to convince you it’s an honest mistake, no exaggeration was intended, for the unfortunate event happened long ago.

    Let me further stipulate only Homos like you are capable of conducting thorough analysis and a good, introspective conversation, you stand commended your nothingness, everyone is impressed with your cerebral superpowers, NOT.

    Sorry about the fact you cannot post simple pictures of mundane locations in the great state of Syria
    Oh Grunt, don’t be silly, there’s nothing “great” about Syria, it’s a small Levantine country which Battlefront chose, it didn’t choose Battlefront. smile.gif

    Also if you were getting any kind of opinion then what you heard in California I would be surprised, especially from movie stars.

    Very well, what I mean is both movie stars and common folk were complaining about gas prices. But only common folk and NOT movie stars were complaining about Iraq.

    I personnaly don't know any movie stars, but I saw and overheard Sharon Stone at a Monarch Beach gas station (where she owns a home) say to her companion "$3.50 a gallon! Go figure."

    It's not important that you're surprised at an event a board member witnessed, what's important is what was witnessed be true and real to the wintess.

    Of course, but this goes back to your earlier assertion about these issues polarizing the American people. They really aren't. For all of the geopolitical involvement of the US it really doesn't put really any strain on the US economy and the amount of people involved in comparision to overall population if fairly minor.

    Again C’Rogers, you’re betraying the record and blatantly concocting an “assertion” I never made, look at the record again and again.

    LoneSyrian said ONLY IRAQ is polarizing and taxing the American people, NO other. You may differ on that, but not without impersonating an ostrich. The entire mid term elections last month were about Iraq, and they were roughly 60/40 against and in favor.

    Look at the US current account and budget deficit, the US GDP growth for the last two quarters from the stand point of projected growth and actual numbers. Look at the US dollar, it’s in the toilet (Syria adopted Euros years ago). I know your administration favors a weak dollar to boost US exports, but your currency is in a free fall which is mocking your prestige. Iraq will yet bankrupt your country, some Americans I spoke with said it already has.

    You’re telling this board the Iraq conflict has nothing to do with crude oil prices? Are you? I was in Orange County California July last and the gallon was at $3.50, even the movie stars of Dana Point and Monarch beach were complaining. I went to restaurants, gatherings, functions and all I could hear is Iraq, Iraq, Iraq, Iraq; ‘our boyz are dyin’ for nothing.’

    Now C’Rogers will come back to me and say, it’s not true that Papua New Guinea is polarizing the US, for once, I’ll wholeheartedly agree with him.

    It is hard to find pictures of places in Syria that show stuff other than landmarks.

    There's a reason for that, posting English words is one thing, posting pictures from here is another.

    Although those who monitor net traffic can't read and understand more than basic English, they've 20/20 vision. I know many who were careless, foolish and wanted to impress Imperial Grunts, let's say they're no longer at liberty to post anything anymore.

    If you think a bar or a disco frequented by Marines is trivial, can be photographed effortlessly and have its photos disseminated, think again. Or better yet, think back to the La Belle Disco in Berlin circa 1980, where a multitude of Marines perished after such photographs were snapped.

    All the pictures you see online are uploaded by either the state-owned press or sanctioned publications, tourist institutions and licensed sites.

    LoneSyrian won't endanger his security in the interest of fun and games.

    LoneSyrian,

    Knock off the crap. Rudel Dietrich is his real name. He is German and works in the military intelligence field. I bet he has access to more accurate information about your forces than you do.

    Steve

    Isn’t it Dietrich’s Amt für Nachrichtenwesen der Bundeswehr in Gelsdorf and the Bundesnachrichtendienst that concurred with Tenet’s findings of definitive WMD in Iraq? Oh ya, them MI boyz are brilliant at assessing assets, strength and intentions.

    Because all these services received medals for usurping, securing and destroying Iraq’s vast stockpiles of WMD. Steve speaks of MI services like they’re prescient prophets.

    German diplomats/spies in Syria can’t go to the loo without an armada of manned surveillance spraying’ freshener about.

    As for the cyclical and photographic satellite orbit, it's a matter of satirical conversation in Damascus Cafés. Dietrich won’t know till Steve really invades. smile.gif

  8. I did read everything, did C'Rogers? No? Then read again.

    Pakistan aids and abets terror, yet you turn a blind eye, Saudi aids and abets the Iraqi Sunni insurgency, yet you placate it.

    If every other country but Iraq seems marginal to you, that doesn't mean they're not there and the US isn't actively involved.

    It's not important for the common man to be concerned about geopolitics, but Condi Rice is willing to strip, mudd wrestle and brake limbs to have it the US way.

    As an observation, I doubt Steve will put T90s in for just 12, if they are there.

    They arn't

    And the Russians did not bring 12 for themsevles either.

    12 is an odd # and why you would bring a T-90 along with a naval base building crew is a very odd thing.

    Syria had a 5 tank platoon of T-80s a few years ago that Russia gave to Syria for trial purposes.

    An order was placed but it has never been delivered due to Syria owing Russia alot of debt from previous arms purchases.

    Those 5 tanks have since been taken out of the country and back to Russia.

    Other than that Syria has never had a better tank than the T-72AV </font>

    On a side note, I know Steve adamantly refuses to even hear we've T 90s, so I'm workin' real hard on evidence without facing castration. All 12 of them arrived in Tartouss in two takes earlier this year, where the Russians are building a naval base. Now there's a fine piece of machinery. ;)

    I hope no one takes this clown seriously </font>
  11. Yes, but do you do Russian gear? Where's that T 72 and them Coronets? Not to take anything away from your impressive work here of course.

    We do not like dictators that support terrorists and threaten our allies. The US and the American way of life is far from perfect, but I would not trade it for anything else.

    Oh pallllllllllease, tell the above to those NOT in the know, you kiddin'? You adore dictators. Your naiveté is well received however.

    Who are your allies? the Saudis, Jordanians and Egyptians? Respectively, these allies you’re so protective of form a cordon of terror, they’re the matriarchs of all dictatorships. Who do you think is stoking and financing the Sunni insurgency in Iraq to counter Iran, Syria? The entire Syrian state can’t afford a single TIVO.

    The whole of the 911 tragedy came from Saudi, your beloved ally. Bin Laden’s family was rushed in protective mode outa the US by the Bush Dynasty in the wee hours of the morning.

    Enter the US’ favorite, scum of the earth, king of all dictators, General Pervez Musharraf of Pakistan, the darling of America. This two faced serpent giggles with that moron Bush then sticks it in Afghanistan, he’s reviving the Taliban, the Czars of terror, to let the US know he has leverage.

    The US and its dictators is a legendary tale, let me start with Saddam and the infamous Rumsfeld handshake photo. You’re not gonna tell the board the US didn’t know that Saddam supported terror in the 80s are ya? You’d be committing a crime against humanity if you did.

    OK, how about fairly recent history, Batista, Pinochet, Noriega, Zaire’s Mobutu, Nasser of Egypt, the Muslim dictators of Central Asia, one of whom visited the white house a few months ago and was awarded a medal for asfixiating his own people. the US likes this Central Asian Stan dictator because he allows her to maintain a base there.

    In fact, the US is known for spoiling its dictator so badly that they blow up in her face at later dates. Who do you think gave Lebanon to Syria in the first place? That’s right, Reagan and Bush Sr.

    You wanna know what’s tragic in the region? The shunning of Hamas in Palestine, for it’s the only administration in the entire Mid East that won an election fair and etched in blood square. This Hamas election was certified by the who’s who of observers as the cleanest election ever undergone in the history of the Mid East. Yet alas.

    The Mexican people wouldn't allow Syrians to take over in the first place, so its a non-issue
    But that’s what I’m saying, we’re not in disagreement on this one. The millions of Lebanese Christians and Muslims on the streets today, at this hour, won’t allow America and France to take over their country and impose western puppets, it is a “non-issue.”

    The issue is America is losing Iraq and it will lose Lebanon, Georgia, the Ukraine and South America, you’re no longer winners, you’ve allowed yourselves to become losers by electing apocalyptic leaderships twice in the row. You're guilty because you have a choice, Syrians don't.
