Saddam was supposed to disarm completly, not just stop making WMD. We recieved info that he did not compleatly disarm, and we were right. Wherever the shell was from, it was against the treaty

No, though we did have more production capeabillity, we used our tech in production aircraft, and used it corectly. For example, the Messersmit 262 jet fighter would have stopped all of our bombers, but hitler wanted these planes to be used as bombers, despite their short range. Our P-38, (in my opinion the best plane in the war) used what was then brand new engines, ideas, and componats to create the US's first long range fighter. And yes the german tanks were better than ours, (though about equal to the russians or soviets) and so we were losing the ground war in europe for a while because though we had more tanks, the germans were better.
In responce to outsourcing and boeing, though the bush family got their money from overseas, thats were they started out, because thats where the oil is. Also, boeing was padding the price of the tankers, and yes, it would be treason to buy from airbus, which is why we didn't, though the europeans did.

Why is that we hold a country like Iraq to the letter of the law, insisting that every provision of every treaty be followed flawlessly? The answer to this should be interesting since we ourselves make no effort whatsoever to honor our own treaty obligations. In fact, we go out of our way to flaunt treaty provisions, yet people like you never seem to have a problem with it.

No, it isn't good be out sourcing military eqipment, but lets say a war with china happened. The gooks would get their but kicked. Why?
1. China has a huge army, I know this, but while this is a major threat to russia, this army is not a threat to us because they have almost no transport capability to get their tanks over. 2. China does have the biggest air force, but it is also the least capable. About one third of their fighters are J-6, copies of the russian MIG-19 from vietnam, which our F-4s would have kiked but if they had been allowed to. 3. The PLAN is a oxymoron execpt for their carrier which has a few (very few compared to ours) Suokki-33 (the carrier based version of the Suokki-27 Flanker multi role fighter 4. Though they have nukes, we could take them out the very first day with B-2s or FB-22 out of Guam filled with GBU-28 Super Penetrators or mini nukes, any that got off would be clobbered by our ABL-1 End story, we still kick but despite clinton.

We had three guys in my former unit that ended up with a nickname derived from "gook": a Korean kid with the unfortunate last name of Guk, a chinese-american guy who was totally obnoxious, and a Hungarian with the last name Guczwa (officially pronounced goo-swa - but every time his name was called out in formation or whatever it was invariably pronounced gook-wah). Needless to say, they ended up with the nicknames: Guk the Gook, Gawdamn Gook, and The Gook.

Here too, but Fundamentalist christians are exempt from good taste. They are allowed to denigrate any of the unwashed infidels. They are also excused for not having the sense of a red brick, from being able to read or understand the Bible, from having any knowledge of Christianity, History, Economics, Politics or Honesty.

Even if I had used this word to defame someone, (I mainly used it because it was shorter than comunist [and a lot easier to spell])you did just about the same thing by classifying me as a fundamentalist Christian.
If I ofended anyone, I am sorry

And some soliders referred to arabs as dune-coons?
Must be ok because somebody has said it in the past.

I am not condoning their actions in any way.
"Gook" is a name for comi enemy soliders, and not for villigers who have no choice. The arab WARRIORS I can understand calling something, just as a nickname, but again, muslims as a whole have done nothing wrong, and calling them a nickname would be like calling a black a niger.

It was a derogitory term for Asains, Chinese, Korean, Southeast Asian. It had nothing to do with any poltical system and goes back atleast to the 1700's. It's certainly not something that would ever be used in polite company.
