Ever hear of that little thing called the Armenian Genocide? Or the Jihad against the Crimean Russian-Orthodox Christians? How about the Hamidian "Massacres?" If you'd take the time to read history, not the politically-correct diatribe of group-think imbecility as well as the sharia of total-stupidity as a religiosity, your life may have an excuse to be considered a human fact of life; Real-time t***slation of "Jihad" is mass-murder, look it up, without the religion narrative, it is murder to slit throats and decapitate, last I looked, take the medication and impeach yourself, that disconnect between the ears, affects more than what you think.

The Muslim Brotherhood in Turkey? I'll have to do my homework. A NATO member since 1952? More homework.

An Islamic nation that elects a woman PM doesn't sound like a nation chasing Sharia law.

Thanks for the info, Randell, but I still don't see Turkey as the threat that the rest of the Middle East presents. Maybe my homework will change my mind.

Throw a big net around the entire region and leave them to stew in their own soup. I've been to Arab nations in NOrth Africa and wasn't impressed. The Berbers were a different story. But the arabs? Not so much.

Again thanks. I'm going on extended vacation so I'll be leaving the forum, much to the pleasure of certain posters. Don't agree with you much, but at least you've been civil, "up to a point", as the character in Waugh's "The Scoop" was found of saying. Best of luck and fortune.

The Ottoman Empire fell apart in 1924. It was an Islamic Caliph**e, not a secular government. This is one reason why Banna organized the Muslim Brotherhood - to reestablish the Caliph**e which was lost after WWI.
CHP politicians have been purged by the AKP, the party of Erdogan, the Islamists. CHP are the Kemalists, the secularists, Rick Perry's friends. They've been put in jail by the hundreds, in maximum security solitary confinement prisons freshly constructed according to Sharia law (not kidding).
Turkey went off the rails. It happened in the late 1990s when it finally came to light that their military was in the drug business. That's what enabled the AKP to take over, and now they are hostile with every other country in the region save Qatar... and Iran when they're working together to get around sanctions.

I don't think the Founding Fathers ever envisioned an interventionist foreign policy that we've had since the late 19th Century.

Sure the US went to war with the Barbary pirates early in the nation's history, but only because the were interfering with US shipping on the high seas and with trade the US conducted with nations that wanted to do trade with the US.

Same with the War of 1812. We went to war with Britain because Britain was interfering with US trade on the high seas.

The war against the Spanish in the late 19th Century, banana wars of the early 20th and the undeclared wars of post WWII era were only designed to allow multi-nationals to do their mischief wherever in the world they wanted. It wasn't that nations that wanted to trade with the US were prevented from doing so. It was nations who had US intervention to install governments that would do trade with the US under any terms desired by the "Boys in the Back Room" as USMC Gen. Smeadly Butler called them.

What DEBATE is there with a liar??? You told a story about getting a Silver Star for saving your commander from a grenade in the fighting hole you were in, during the A-shau Valley campaign with the 9th marines,,,, I pulled the Operations Sitrep, and all the Silver star Citations for that time, in fact all of the citations, for Vietnam, describing your "purported action" and you cannot select which redacted citation is yours,,,, the end.

Instead of just fessing up to which is you, you continue with the actions of a liar!!

Here they are again,,, your old quotes, and the citations, just pick which one is you,,,,,,,,,.

You claimed to be in the 1st Battalion 9th marines, That is VERY SPECIFIC,, in the A-shau valley, a fight in which casualties were horrific. The fight with the 9th marines in the ashau valley took place January 22 through March 18, 1969, so if you were wounded and only stayed a few months, you could have been there, could have done that.

I have reviewed "ALL" the Silver Star Citations for Vietnam,,, here are the only 7 describing action the likes of which you claim.

I'm not saying you didnt, but there is ZERO proof,,, and the story you laid out, would be provable. Either it didnt happen, or didnt happen the way you said,,either way, it isnt fair that you bust the nuts of other vets, when you have a checkered past.

I submitted a FOIA request and got the actual 1/9 After Action reports from the A-shau battle, and began to notice the holes in your story.

None of this would have been necessary, except for the abuse I have seen HF heap on younger, less experienced vets, but everyone, that encounters him gets the same, "something isnt right" gut reaction.

I started digging, and found the Walking Dead.org (what the First BN 9th Marines are called. They hunt down wannabes,, who build their reputations and sometimes careers, on lies of stolen valor.

Some of these awards, like the silver star, are illegal to wear, and I would assume that the reason the VA is short on money, as well as so many Veterans "benefits" are so scarce and hard to obtain is because of all the liars and charletons....Well,,, not quite true, but what is about you? A Silver star, not given for "just being there" there has to be conspicuous gallantry, like you describe,,, If, a Marine did as you claim, it was so noted in the citation, because that type of heroism is rare.

The fight with the 9th marines in the ashau valley took place January 22 through March 18, 1969, so if you were wounded and only stayed a few months, you could have been there, could have done that.


You have stated before:
"I was in the 1/9, Walking Dead (First Battalion 9th Marines)"

"I was wounded in the A Shau Valley in February 1969 where the 9th marines attacked, took every objective we were ordered to and left it for the NVA to re-occupy within weeks, if not days. I still have less than full function of my left hand and shrapnel in my left arm and body from where a Chinese potato masher grenade landed near me and my platoon leader and I attempted to throw it back. I also have a Silver Star for that act of of desperate survival instinct."

"Even Dennis knows how to make a point-he corrected me on what year Vietnam had the most KIAs, albeit with an insult thrown in for good measure. . I was only there for a little less than two months in 1969 so I guess it was a mistake to think it was as bad the entire 12. Thanks Dennis. "

In other words, you have not argument to refute what I'm saying and you don't wish to debate it. So you attack with scurrilous lies.

As I said, you've provide NO information on your rather fantastic military career, so what's the b***h?

Get help-you are a sick man. And you're becoming quite the bore. Or Boar. Maybe both.

A friendly listening post, which had sustained a casualty during the initial moments of the firefight, was returning to the perimeter. Upon learning about the situation, Corporal XXXXXXXXX, then a Lance Corporal fearlessly exposed himself to enemy fire as he maneuvered across the hazardous terrain to assist the wounded mean. Alertly observing an enemy hand grenade land dangerously close to his position, Corporal XXXXXXXXX unhesitatingly threw his body across that of his wounded comrade, shielding him from further injury. Although painfully wounded by the exploding hostile grenade, Corporal XXXXXXXXX resolutely returned to his Fire Team and continued to direct his men in the defense of his sector of the company perimeter until directly ordered to withdraw for treatment of his wounds. His heroic and timely actions inspired all who observed him and were instrumental in saving the life of a fellow Marine. By his courage, bold initiative and steadfast devotion to duty in the face of great personal danger, Corporal XXXXXXXXX upheld the highest traditions of the Marine Corps and of the United States Naval Service.

The President of the United States takes p***e in presenting the Silver Star Medal to M J. XXXXXXXXX , Corporal, U.S. Marine Corps, for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action while serving as a Rifleman with Detachment, First Battalion, Ninth Marine Regiment, THIRD Marine Division, during operations against the enemy in Vietnam. Throughout the night, the Marines heard sounds of enemy activity. At dawn on 18 January, a numerically superior North Vietnamese Army patrol of approximately forty men was sighted moving toward their position. Corporal XXXXXXXXX quickly moved to his defensive position where he was observed by the approaching enemy. Demonstrating exceptional presence of mind, he warned his companions and immediately opened fire at the lead man of the North Vietnamese unit. His continued to bring effective fire to bear on the advancing enemy although wounded twice as the North Vietnamese moved to within fifteen meters of his position. Exhibiting exemplary courage and aggressive fighting spirit despite his painful wounds and the intense enemy fire directed at him, Corporal XXXXXXXXX maintained his position and halted the enemy's attempts to dislodge the flank security. When an enemy hand grenade landed within the patrol's defensive perimeter Corporal XXXXXXXXX, with complete disregard for his own safety, valiantly attempted to recover the grenade but was wounded. By his extraordinary courage, bold initiative, and selfless devotion to duty, Corporal XXXXXXXXX saved the lives of several Marines, inspired all those who observed him and upheld the highest traditions of the Marine Corps and of the United States Naval Service.

Lets, see,,,,,

In other words,
1. You told a story, that I could and did verify.
2. Now you are angry, cant/wont refute it.
3. You even said "Uhhh,,ohh,,, you twisted my words" (but I didn't)
4. Now you are trying everything in the book EXCEPT coming clean...
5. But, it is very simple and right before you,,, just prove it wrong.

I HAVE done my homework on you, THAT is why you are so mad.

There isn't anything else, I am interested in from you,,,

Those are the "other words",,,

I don't need help, I don't need a shrink, I don't have ptsd (Neither do you cause you possibly weren't in a fight).

You don't talk like a marine, you don't.

Until you tell the t***h, there really isn't anything I am interested in hearing from you,,


Here is a man, who actually DID what you claimed you did,,,look at him, this is what it is really like.... not a burned out old hippy, badmouthing his country, and all who served.. this is what you would be like, if,,,,,


The end,,,

As I said, you've provide NO information on your rather fantastic military career, so what's the b***h?

Get help-you are a sick man. And you're becoming quite the bore. Or Boar. Maybe both.

An Islamic nation that elects a woman PM doesn't sound like a nation chasing Sharia law.

Thanks for the info, Randell, but I still don't see Turkey as the threat that the rest of the Middle East presents. Maybe my homework will change my mind.

Throw a big net around the entire region and leave them to stew in their own soup. I've been to Arab nations in NOrth Africa and wasn't impressed. The Berbers were a different story. But the arabs? Not so much.

Again thanks. I'm going on extended vacation so I'll be leaving the forum, much to the pleasure of certain posters. Don't agree with you much, but at least you've been civil, "up to a point", as the character in Waugh's "The Scoop" was found of saying. Best of luck and fortune.

Correct on Turkey's NATO membership (i though it came much later) , not correct on any notable Muslim Brotherhood activity in Turkey. It's one of the few Middle Eastern nations without any significant MB activity.

Again, if you're Islamabahobia lets you, you'll mullahs under every bed. Turkey has been one of the few Islamic countries in the Middle East that hasn't caused us fits. the Trukish citizens seem rather OK with a female PM, hardly something you'd see in a nation that 10 years later would impose Sharia Law?

Anyway, off on vacation.

Nor I you until you fill in some gaps in your foot-sodier, med-school-successful med practice, back into military to be rotary and fix wing craft pilot. Years, units. etc.

Keep digging-I'll be back in a few months. Maybe.

It's actually a successful strategy-blame those who oppose you with constant personal attacks instead of debating.

Pretty lame after you've done it to pretty much everyone except those who agree with you.

"Don't even let your opponent to be human much less correct.(right) Attack, attack, attack." Mien Kampf.

Just another h**e-filled asshole.

Say hello to Pastor Ted for me.
