Another American has been kidnapped

700 people, that's funny. How many died on D-Day, what, 10000? Let's see 700 in a year, 10000 in one day. ( Or you could compare it to 50000 in 3 days from Gettysberg. )

What the hell...?

You can't possibly compare the three battles casualties...

THe civil war was a period of time with no tech. They got within 50 feet of each other and shot balls of flaming death into each others ranks. THese were OPEN fields, usually with very little protection. You've seen civil war charges havn't you? I don't recall the Us military doing that in iraq...

D-day is an entirely diffent story. The US tried to take over a heavily defended beach over. They were going up against pill boxes, machine gun fire, small arms fire, artilery, ect. The took on little boats and CHARGED INTO THE GUN FIRE. I dont recall any mass landings occuring in iraq like this...

If your going to be an arrogant name calling contributer to this thread, badboy, at least learn to provide useful evidence. Nothing that happened in your aforementioned statements happend in Iraq, with the exception of the casualties and fighthing.

Also, knock it off with the "you're a moron", or "you're a fuckface". If you don't think that you can handle peoples opinions on this matter, and respond to them in a mature, adult, and level headed manner, shut the fuck up.
