As to the Title of the OP: the cost of war is the lives of those doing the fighting, both in terms of their own lost potential and the grief of their families.

Everything else is temporary.

And Rex: Freedom isn't Free. Just because it's a slogan, don't for a second discount the wisdom in it. Most countries don't enjoy the level of liberty American's do for one simple fact: it's difficult to maintain.

Don't bother bandit, he won't understand until it is all gone, then maybe, just maybe he might see the light.

Yea. We should have let 9/11 slide. :dis: :dis: :dis:

Don't you know? If we're nice to everyone, they'll be nice back! :thumb:

is "nice back" gonna be the official rp term for the opposite of "blow back"?:hihi:

No because Timberlake will write a song describing how he is "bringing nice back", and the dems will use it. Besides, repubs couldn't be nice if they had to.

Is anyone suggesting that? Last I heard we hadn't caught OBL..

Obviously you don't learn from mistakes... Politicians like this are what cause the mess.

Let's not also forget the Blow Back reports come from our own CIA not RP. Don't choose your own facts. Actually learn the real ones

i agree. thats why i posted what i did in response to "kill em all"

Is that the same CIA Pelosi says lied to Congress?
