True that Bush should admit that Bin Laden should have been a bigger target and he's sorta failed in that aspect BUT, Iraq had/has MANY ties to Al Queda, so the war in Iraq has been a huge help in fighting terrorism. Many known terrorists have been detained/killed since the start of the war. Even if Bin Laden is never caught, it's hard for him to do much with less financial support and less goonies to do his bidding.

If they weren't Canadians, what were they?

we proved to be very crucial with the radar, they coulda bombed you from the north wihtout you guys even noticing if it wasn't for us , and yes.. we were at risk to!
whats with all the canada bashing? this has to be the WORST most IMATURE forum for this ever, ESPIECALLY coming from idiots, like kermit himself.
as for our war budget, why do we need 1.5 million troops and 400 billion dollers? to put ourselfs more in dept and have more "troops" killed?
no thanks, we don't bother anyone so I think the least thing we have to worry about... is you guys gettin bombed along our border..
I agree, Canada was useful in the cold war. But do you really think Canada had a choice whether we'd have radar use up there? 
What bashing exactly? I said nothing worth attacking in Canada, that isn't bashing.
And that Canada is defended by the US. That's just a fact.
And you're right, Canada doesn't need to spend any more money on troops. Canada relies on the US for protection which we do just fine at, so no need for more mounties.
And you're also right about Canada not bothering anyone. Very uninvolved, uncaring country. Who cares about if Mideasterns have democracy as long as you have it, right?
canada uncarring? wow, where have you been? Oh yes id call blowing up half the country and plunging it into civil war caring, also the unemployment rate in iraq has doubled, theres no hydro in half the country, hardly any sewage.... man we take in hundreds of humanitarian refugees a day and we donate billions of dollars and forgive trade debts, so dont tell me canada isnt caring. We were also the first to declare war on japan, even after they bombed YOUR country.

Exacly kermit said it better yourself.. we don't get involved, we don't care... because once we start sticking our noses in all these countries trying to act like "we care" is when the trouble begins, but you just won't come to see that so its ok!
and again, sure you may "defend" us, or at least think that... but once again I come to my point, we don't need to be defending I mean seriously? what risk is canada at? espiecally with terriosm? are you stupid? if anything, the USA will get attacked again.. and bush will be crying like a baby trying to point his finger at everyone, while we sit up here on our cold freezin ass's.. laughing.
if anything the most we should worry about is around our borders and the canucks who live by them, hell I live across the lake from erie.. I'm scared if they get bombed.. it may send a wave over here and kill me!
as for you bashing canada, please don't make me quote up other topics and posts from this single thread.. I can't stand people who think there know it alls such as your self kermit... your post count shows it best

UN-ian soldiers..
and for one davo, I'm a very proud Canadian... no insecurities here , and I guess you did get me with that whole bashin bush supports.. I apoligize, just don't like bush.. I just don't know how anyone can be proud being led by a leader like him, espiecally when only 10% of the country liked him..
hey we have our own pretty low leaders here as well, who are a bunch of homosexual supporting pansies who can't make up there mind. No I don't support gay marriage
and yes NORAD was acually just north in SASK.

Originally posted by loggerbomb: Davo, its about politics, you of all people should know that, since you seem to think your all wise and knowing when it comes to it. If canada went in as its own country THAN the troops would be canadian troops, but when they go in under the banner of the UN, then they are UN troops. OK so if they troops were under UN control in Korea, than candians would have been last in action during the second world war, ill give you that but thats not the point.
But in World War I they were members of the Allied Expeditionary Force, so they weren't really Canadians then either.
Seriously, you guys should take credit and accept the honor for the sevice of your country. There is nothing wrong with doing so.

Wow. If you consider the questioning of a ridiculous claim to be bashing Canada, then grow some balls.

man you get it mixed up again. Our troops do their job damn well, and i will thank anyone that has served my country. But what your talking about is the politics of war, not the nationality of the soldiers...... id even dare say canadian soldiers are more well trained than american ones, i mean, we have to be there less of them to go around.

Wow. You are so ignorant.
There is no lamer response than "you are so ignorant". Just so you know, you look like a jackass when you say that.
Originally posted by Beowulf: If a foreign national breaks the law in the US, that person is tried and punished according to our law. Same as you would be if you broke a law in another country. After they serve that sentence, they are deported.
I'm not sure what your point is here, we weren't talking about foreign nationals in the US (well, maybe we were, but you didn't answer when I asked who you were referring to).
If that was my only response, I would agree. What question is unanswered? Terrorism is against the law, right? So if you are a terrorist and you come into the country and attempt to or try to break the law and you get caught, you are dealt with according to the rules of law.
I am not going to say this again. Stop playing dumb.
