Title: Iraq 2017
Post by: MichaelC on January 30, 2007, 04:37:55 PM
Place your bets.  Pure opinion.

What will be the situation in Iraq by the year 2017?

I do not think you will find that name "Iraq" on any map by then...
Just as you do not find the word "Persia"...

But you still have Persian rugs and Persian cats...

We will still have the Iraq debt...

Iraq will be busted up into two, possibly three provinces. U.S. troops will be in Kurdistan as security, but nowhere else in the country.

Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan combine when President Am-anna-jihhad takes over after the Democrats strategically "re-deploy" (errr leave) from Afghanistan and Iraq.

Hopefully in 2017 Iraq and rest of middle east will be a leveled wasteland with a population of 0!That would just leave 7/11 clerks and hotel owners here and we could send them off to mexico.

Hey, follow your (don't let it be lack of) integrity: and you better do what is just and right.  Jesus Christ was crucified for all those people too, so I let him fight the fighting.

Tell a Muslim about Jesus and he will spit into your face,if you cannot see there are 2 kinds of people on earth...Good...And evil,you are blind.I spent 14 years in military and got to see 1st hand what evil lurks in middle east.So unless you have been there,dont tell me what they are like.Their beliefs will only get them to one place,and its mighty hot down there!

Don't tell me you are afraid of Muslims.  Man, I wouldn't fear a million men if I am a just person.  Sacking those people as this nation has done, and talk that equates of nothing more than dogs barking is going to get us nowhere good, down to seven times for our own sins.

Then grab your bible,jump on a plane and go live with them if your so upset that americans have upset the poor islamic extremists!Maybe they will let you wear a rag on your head and play in their giant sandbox.Everyone has a right to believe what that want,I respect your position,just dont agree with it,guess its 1st hand knowledge that prevents any sympathy for them.

From reading the Bible, our ministers should have this nation well informed: those people, being made in the image of God, were not going to bow the knee to our military presence.  Had we our own houses in order, the fight would have been of a nature maybe we could bare.

Praise the Lord that the power of God is greater than men.  As it's written: "It is hard for thee to kick against the pricks".

What a myopic view of scriptures.  Did you cut and paste your of version of the Wurd-a-Gawd together, or do yo just like to cherry pick verses from the real thing?

Hes one of those people that cannot debate a subject without bringing out bible verses,and takes them way out of context in the process.Maybe if he was directly affected such as 911 victims,he might like the quote"AN EYE FOR A EYE"!But he may prefer the famous quote"STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES"!

That is a load of crap. I've lived with Muslims and we have spent many nights staying up talking about everything from politics to religion. The similarities between Islam and Christianity are striking and most Muslims I've met are tolerant and open to discussion and debate. They are certainly not evil.

.......about what, our mandate from the Lord to march to Jerusalem riding a beastly war machine?  The doctrine of Christ is non-violence.

Apparently Paul missed out on that edict.  Take a gander at Romans 13 and tell me what part of non-violence fits in that discussion.  


Either way, this is a derail.  Start another thread if you wanna thump the burble.

^ Rather, everyone knows what corner the so-called justification of this warfare springs from.  Flip through the TV channels and radio broadcasts and see the fame of the pro-war prophets.

So I take it you'd rather babble than discuss; unfortunately par for the course for most fundies.  If you want to discuss start another thread.  If not, stop crapping this one.

He was right about it for a little bit...maybe a week or two....except for the entire wrongness of the whole situation from the git-go.


Like our "Peace with Honor" in Viet Nam.
