I thought my husband who married in game was very kind, he always sent the goonzu online gold to the new that started to played the game. Perhaps the reason I like him. However our reins last long time, I was so sad at beginning. But the game is only the game, like the cheap goonzu gold. It had no worthiness.

Posted by: cheap goonzu gold at August 5, 2008 03:04 AM

At beginning , you are a poor, but don’t worried, the style of game give you a little habbo credits, it is very cheap, you can use them to buy equipment, you can use this equipment to exercise the rank, when you get to a certain rank valid, you don’t need the equipment, you should buy the better equipment. This time, you need the habbo gold.

Posted by: habbo credits at August 5, 2008 02:59 AM

I want to discuss my attainment shallowly about this game. Earned money, exercising rank and doing best quality equipment, these were very important part of this game. Let me say the gaia gold, I used the buy gaia gold usually, of course the cheap gaia gold is the lowest price in this game, because only you have the more money and best quality equipment, you can exercise rank easy.

nice to meet you

Posted by: wowpowerleveling at April 16, 2008 06:02 AM

Yes, make up your own mind. That's been my point all along. Every American should have the right to do that, and not be told that someone else has "more" perspective, or "better" context. E pluribus unum.

As far as Yon's story goes, I mean no disrespect to anyone involved, and thank them for their service. But a clusterf*ck is just that, whether it goes down on Yon's blog, or Army of Dude's. There's no "more" or "better" to it. They're data points -- different parts of the elephant, not the whole enchilada.

That's epistemology, not a sound bite. And the "road of excess" part is poetry -- specifically, William Blake. And if you follow the metaphor, it marks both Yon and Army of Dude as wise men, and also suggests how far Steve and I have to go.

Demo, over and out.

If anyone is curious about the dispatch that seems to be the source of some contention between Demophilus and I:

http://www.michaelyon-online.com/wp/gates-of-fire.htm

Read and make up your own mind.

Posted by: Steven at September 12, 2007 02:16 PM

Dem-o:

You know what irony is? I guess you must, because you leave out facts in your examples meant to point out missing facts in my post.

"Seeing as context is so important, you forgot to mention the parts where the CO could have stopped the BGs in the car, but didn't, then chased them down an alley without overwatch, and an embed in tow"

I guess you decided to leave out the reason that he didn't stop the bad guys was because LTC Kurilla was the one that spotted the suspicious car, and the BG's gunned the car as soon as they noticed he had made them. You also left out the ensuing vehicle chase, with his Strykers chasing the Opel with the BG's inside. You also left out the fact that when the chase ended and the BG's went on foot into an alley, he put his vehicle WITH A SQUAD OF GUYS in a blocking position, while other strykers were sent to clear their way towards the blocking position. You also left out how soldiers in his vehicle were clearing the immediate area and flex-cuffing possible suspects. You left out that soldiers clearing their way towards the blocking position became engaged while clearing and trying to box in the BG's they had chased. And that he went to back up some of the men from his vehicle that were already moving towards the shooting. And that's where he got shot.

See? That's how much context you can provide when you're not concerned with dropping witty gems like

"Guess the road of excess DOES lead to the palace of wisdom."

Posted by: Steven at September 12, 2007 02:12 PM

Seeing as context is so important, you forgot to mention the parts where the CO could have stopped the BGs in the car, but didn't, then chased them down an alley without overwatch, and an embed in tow. You also forgot the part where the embed snapped pictures of the whole COPS episode, except the part where he had to grab a weapon, and just might have saved everyone's ass.

You also neglected to mention how anything Yon says provides "more" or "better" perspective, or context.

And as far as "snappy little sound bites" go, I don't do that. And, even if I did, why are they fair play for you?

Nice talking to you, Steve-o. FTR, I'm not the enemy. That's the douchebag with the beard in the cave.

Posted by: demophilus at September 12, 2007 01:06 PM

Solomon:

Definitely agree with you that the increasing politicizing of the military is troubling. That kind of legacy is hard to shake - just look at the military after Viet Nam.

Demophilus:

Yes. In that case, a battalion commander had been shot in the leg and laying down in the open, attempting to return AK-47 fire with his M9 pistol. Two soldiers with him froze and were not moving. A CSM finally went forward to help the commander and was shot and went down also. Michael Yon is a former Special Forces operator. That's the point where he picked up the CSM's M4 and tried to shoot a few rounds of suppressive fire so he could go check on the commander and the CSM. This is when help finally arrived.

See? That's called context. It's hard to provide when you are thinking/writing in snappy little sound bites.

I said that "Army of Dude" expressed my feelings. Nothing more. Once you get past the privates on their first enlistments, once you get past the SNCO's that are trying to sniff out SGTMAJ or Master Gunny...Once you get past the Officers that are punching tickets, then you get to the truth of this conflict. The "Revolt of the Generals" was a start but sad and pathetic. The politics of this thing and the politicizing of the military is ONE of the lasting, troubling, and incomprehensible after affects of this conflict. I respect this site because although many have tried to silence critics of this conflict- Christian, Ward and the others have brought a balanced accounting of whats going on. I just expect the same of the many posters here too. Whether Active, Vets, Retired or Enthusiasts, this is one place where I don't want (or expect to see) political talking points. I believe that the effects of this conflict on the Army and Marine Corps has reached a point of "no return" they were stretched, I now believe they're broken (maybe not the Marines but "we win battles"...the nation needs a strong and vibrant Army to win wars). That is why I may sound alarmist, this has gone too far. Oh and one last thing...head to a SNCO club on any Army post or Marine base and after a few shots of Jack Daniels, find a quiet corner and see what the real troops think about this war.

Posted by: Solomon at September 11, 2007 04:57 PM

I've read Michael Yon. Isn't he the embed who grabbed a weapon in a firefight, and shot a hole in a propane canister?

Guess the road of excess DOES lead to the palace of wisdom.

Don't know about "better" perspective, or "more" context. My philosophy professors taught me to put more trust in the word "different" -- although my physics professors convinced me that "better" and "more" look real fine before the words "data points".

Naw, I'd say it's more like the story of the blind guys and the elephant. Must suck to be the guy who grabs the nads.

But then again, I'm still humping the road of excess.

Posted by: demophilus at September 11, 2007 04:53 PM

Just because a blogger is in the box doesn't necessarily mean he's particularly insightful. I could also point you to war bloggers that don't sound quite as bitter as "army of dude". For writing with better perspective and more context, try reading Michael Yon's blog (www.michaelyon-online.com).

Posted by: Steven at September 11, 2007 03:37 PM

Sol:

The road of excess may lead to the palace of wisdom, but the purge after the surge won't start or end with 1 stars, nor will anybody (except for a Calley, or Medina) do time. By and large, officers don't.

After Viet Nam, a lot of the asshats who drank McNamara's Kool-Aid retired, or got "promoted" to positions where they couldn't do any more harm. Have no fear; sometimes, the Big Green Machine works just fine.

But, I tell you what: if I were Bremer, Perle or Wolfowitz, I'd lie low for a while. Work on my memoirs.

If I were Cheney, I wouldn't go hunting with strangers. But then again, I don't.

J. House

Go to the "Army of Dude" blogspot. Read his account of whats going on in Iraq and you'll understand my feelings and viewpoints better than I could ever express them. Embrace the suck??? NO! Jail every 1-star and above who's allowed this craziness to infect our Army and Marine Corps???? Hell Yes!

Posted by: Solomon at September 11, 2007 01:50 PM

J:

True AND false patriots respond strongly to challenges of their commitment. Quislings AND war profiteers hide their venality behind the flag.

There's a war on, J. Nothing is easy, or simple, not anymore, if it ever was. The balloon done gone up.

After peace breaks out, on sunny days we can go back to painting rocks around the command quad. Until then, we're marching through the fog.

Embrace the suck.

Re Solomon's comments, remember, Congress asked for this report, not the White House.
Gee, do you think the WH critics would be calling General P a liar if his statistics showed attacks were rising?
Theatre is right...the problem with politicians and media pundits on both sides of the aisle is that once they get locked into their positions, it is nearly impossible for them to admit they were wrong, so instead of honest debate, they engage in shaping the facts to their prior positions.
We also fail to grasp the fact that there are plenty of Americans (including members of Congress and the State Dept) that want to see America humiliated from a 'defeat' in Iraq, either because the despise the current administration and wish for failure, or, they do not want to see American power succeed with the present 'preemption' approach to foreign policy.
They can be easily identified by their vitriolic reaction to any comments questioning their patriotism.

Posted by: j house at September 11, 2007 10:25 AM

The esteemed Congresswoman from CA. whose attack on GEN "P" put so much stock in the ABC and BBC poll data, citing Iraqi hatred of the U.S. soldiers,seems to have forgotten the Gallup Poll from 11AUG07 which placed the Congressional approval raating at only 18%.

Posted by: Kelly4364 at September 11, 2007 09:29 AM

One of the most incredible aspects of the testimony is the subject of Iran's ongoing proxy war with the US in Iraq. Here we have the top commander in Iraq testifying that Iraq's neighbor is directly involved in planning and carrying out attacks against US forces, yet no one in Congress seems to want to do anything about it, nor ask the hard questions. It seems that both sides of Congress fear confronting the Iranians, albeit for very different reasons.
No one is disputing his testimony about their involvement. No one is asking why the USG is tolerating Iran's aggressive posture. No one is asking what this administration is doing at the senior diplomatic level to pressure Iran to back off...where are the UN security council resolutions condemning these acts of war against Iraqis, US and coalition forces?
We are showing a very weak hand to the Iranians, which may embolden them further and cause this to escalate into a larger conflict. Surely, it doesn't help that half the Iraqi government is being run out of Tehran with full US support.

so its all going really well - onto Iran!

Posted by: diablotakahe at September 10, 2007 07:05 PM

Admiral Fallon and the JCS disagree with General "P". I disagree with him and many dissenting voices have been silenced. It makes for great theater but this is all a waste of time. The American Enterprise Institute and the Weekly Standard are the true "framers" of this surge and those neophytes will stop at nothing. The latest "policy" point by Mr. Kagan was to extend Marine Corps rotations to 12 months and activate MORE National Guard units!! The American military has been totally politicized. This is madness!

Posted by: Solomon at September 10, 2007 04:32 PM

Gen. P looks really solid. I mean he seems very composed and very knowledgable on the topics he speaks. I hope appearences aren't deceiving in this instance.
