Then why is my company along with the government going to Israel to inspect a company that builds parts for the Army? And why did the government go to Belgium for the same reason?

Its just a little strange how it all played out and when it did. The timing, the specific group. I won't play conspiracy theorist but then again, we've seen that things are often not what they seem and things happen for reasons that aren't disclosed.
We had some good men taken from us, we owe it to them to find out how and why.

They already know how and the why....

The public does not need what all the military does....

They have been and will continue to be honored....

Nope nothing wrong with war!!! The left says they hate war. This President joined two more wars and the media doesn't even mention them, in this game of save other countries, with American blood.

It would be the little fat man from Cape Girardeau, Mo, Sean the Man and Mark Levine! All men who know something about shirking from a fight when they had their chance to serve!
When these guys graduated, was there a war going on?? Or should they have just signed up??

You are asking me why your company does what it does? Why don't you send me the memos and I'll read them out to you.

You must be special.....you cannot even follow your own posts....

You made a very definitive statement......

O.K., you lied to everyone on this board....is that clear enough for you...here is your statement where you lied...

I won't even comment on the rest of your post which was nothing but an off topic ant-Obama rant.
So I asked you a very simple question, but you do have problems with simple questions.....

But here,I'll ask again....

If equipment and supplies are from US companies (see your quote, so you know you did say this), then why is my company going over sea's to inspect companies making parts for the Army....When you say all parts are made in the U.S.?

Oh, I get it....you do not understand a question that is meant not to be answered by you, just show your lack of knowledge.........

Was there some type of announcement by the president?
Seems that it is buried...
RIP brave soldiers.

Is it no surprise that acts of terror have increased as we kill women and children.
Very few high pirority targets are selected, most are low level.
So who are the real terrorists?

Sorry not to be rude or to sound like I don't care, but do you really except us to believe they care about their women and children. I'm speaking of the terrorist. It's known knowledge they use schools, hospitals and whatever else the occupies women and children to draw troops to those targets.

I don't believe we are just over there killing women and children. Strange how some blame Americans and look to the Middle East as a peaceful place to be.

Your fake aggressiveness and senseless accusations do not make you look any better, so you might as well drop it.

A simple question? You are asking me why your company prefers foreigners over Americans? You tell me. Is everyone supposed to know what business you are in? No, I don't know, and I don't care. Is everyone supposed to know you do not represent a US company? No, I don't know and I don't care.

If someone says the military is supplied by US companies, and you point out that some of them have foreign connections, and some may not be US companies, then does it make you feel cool to immediately start tossing comments like "you lied to everyone on this board". No, it makes you look like a nine year old kid who likes to argue and bicker just to pass the time. And no, I did not say all the parts are made in US, so your claim is false. Is it now my turn to display fake anger and call you a liar? No, I am not into your games.

Have a pleasant afternoon. So long.
