  1. Kelpy..... Thought we were done with that...... The whole reason for those posts was people who thought ww2 was not politically motivated and america entered the war in SELF DEFENSE...... I disagreed and then there was a bit of a slinging match...Its pretty obvious that WW2 isnt really relevant...... The bomb was only going to ever needed to be used once after that its just the threat that will be enough( we hope ) And in MY opinion America wanted to be the first to drop the bomb.... I may be wrong..... But that is just the way i see your country..... Sorry.... Back on topic then? .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  2. POLITICS - plural noun [usu. treated as sing. ] the activities associated with the governance of a country or other area, esp. the debate or conflict among individuals or parties having or hoping to achieve power : the Communist Party was a major force in French politics | thereafter he dropped out of active politics. • the activities of governments concerning the political relations between countries : in the conduct of global politics, economic status must be backed by military capacity. • the academic study of government and the state : [as adj. ] a politics lecturer. • activities within an organization that are aimed at improving someone's status or position and are typically considered to be devious or divisive : yet another discussion of office politics and personalities. • a particular set of political beliefs or principles : people do not buy this newspaper purely for its politics. • (often the politics of) the assumptions or principles relating to or inherent in a sphere, theory, or thing, esp. when concerned with power and status in a society : the politics of gender.
  3. Heres my CX-7 box under a box for a 105.. At its widest point the box for the 105 ( Only a small part at the bungy ) is actually wider than the CX-7 box....Its longer by about 20cm. For me its all about the .3 raynox not being suitable for the side mount.... With something low profile im guessing it should be fine... .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  4. What about for oil?? .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  5. They should stop taking all the great english comedy and rehashing it into unfunny american programming...eg men behaving badly, The office Imitation is a form of flattery i know but......... .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  6. Should putting a 37-37 adapter on my .3 raynox ( which doesnt come with one... probably due to adequate clearance) affect the picture at all???? .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  7. Just for all those people thinking of getting a cookie box for there cx7 just be mindful of the lens you are using and the clearance needed. eg Raynox .3 wont fit a standard cookie CX7 box unless you use an adaptor as a spacer or get the hole on the bottom drilled slightly more towards the front... not sure about the 5050..... .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  8. .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  9. Do i let them get to me.....no.... Most of my friends argue all the time about pretty much anything...... Just banter.......then have a laugh.... It just wouldnt feel right if someone ALWAYS agreed with what you said....How boring would that be!!! .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  10. No need for the PA Its still WRONG to go to war!!!... All history shows that you can do the wrong things for the right reasons ...... .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  11. If you had a non political war....Im guessing there would be no rules for restraint???eg ..holy war? .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  12. How so....3 weeks after you had the tests you dropped the two bombs. On Hiroshima and nagasaki.. America with uranium and plutonium bombs.... hehehe.... DAMN straight you where going to try to be the first to use it......Thats just the way you are!!!! Back on subject..... Can America win the war in iraq..... NO!.....Not until it meets all the political objectives and i dont think you will... .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  13. The trinity test wasn't until July 1945, 3.5 years after the entrance into the war. The first chain reaction wasn't achieved until late in 1942. So no, you'll need to come up with a new gimmick argument. You cry bullshit a lot for a guy in such desparate need of a fact checker. Your Mums a fat checker....... Listen Poojab ,,,I know exactly when the tests where..... I meant If you wouldn't of joined when you did once you had that weapon you would have looked for the first war you could!....WW2..... Sorry if i didnt make it clear the first time... I started off when someone made the statement that America joining the war was completely in self defense.... Therefor NOT politically motivated ...... I said bullshit and i would again ..... So where is the gimmick argument.....Tell me PLEASE what YOU think we where debating....Or did you not read back that far? .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!

    ATMONAUTI

    Like ive said before......Thats all fine and dandy...... But there is a reason that a lot of people have no time for atmo... Every thread ive read so far about this somewhere someone will make stupid comments and try to scientifically prove its a different form of flight.....Just makes me cringe!.....Its like listening to a religious fanatic who wont listen to reason!!!! THAT is your major problem!!!.....Untill they stop how can you expect People to take Atmo seriously.... .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  16. Bullshit!!!!!.....Why do you think that???? Read a little about what you had already done BEFORE you got attacked by Japan ( legally and Illegally) ..... I love they way every american thinks that they where just sitting there minding there own business when Japan attacked....You would have entered the war eventually..... Hell...... You guys had a nice new big shinny bomb you wanted to show off.....America with a nuclear bomb they haven't used is like giving a kid a bike for xmas then telling him he cant ride it >not war...I said can you think of any government action that isn't political? And no, you can't, because by definition they all are. Which makes such a comment about WWII superficial to the point of uselessness. YEP...... Thats what ive been trying to get across to the person that first made the comment......[:) Done to death now!! .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  17. Of course just before he reminded you of all these actions you said the US did nothing, so you might have to excuse him for having trouble keeping score. And you have failed to address the obvious problem of every government action being political. Can you identify any that aren't? That was a hasty remark !
  18. .... If I have a two out and it downlines what is there to think about??? ( this is just what i was taught ) IS there any reason you wouldn't cut away or even think twice about it? Wouldnt thinking about the postions of your canopies ....which one higher than the other ect ....just waist valuable time? .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  19. How in the WORLD did you come to that conclusion.......I think you have forgotten what you said ??? >I'm coming up blank in my attempt to recall a war that was not a result of politics. World War II. - billvon This started it......then >I'm not sure how WWII can be considered not politically motivated. We entered it because we were attacked. - billvon And what i am trying to say is you where involved before the attack.... Your government had helped the war effort and had even given the order to fire apon any German subs it spotted.....BEFORE you where attacked by japan..... So what i was trying to get accross in my analogy was that as soon as your father had asked you to go to the street to look for the bully you where at war... THEN you got smacked over the back of the head by his mate....... I dont know where you got jail from and figured out my view on the world?..... But feel free to enlighten me with the thought process... .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  20. NO..... At the point of the attack politically,... you had already made the decision to go to war.. 8. The orders to American warships to shoot at sight at German submarines, announced September 11, 41. (this is when hostilities actually started, not when war was declared after pearl harbour) ... The order was not to fire if fired upon but to SHOOT ON SIGHT....when that order was given in my opinion you where at war.... Using your analogy...... There is a bully on the street next to yours.... Your dad tells you to stand on the street and if you see that bully you are to run up to him and smack him in the head..... You are now standing on the street ....Your waiting for this bully when his mate walks up behind you and hits you with brick!...... So you go to THAT guys house and burn and nuke it..... But you where ALREADY on the street blood pumping waiting for that first bully to show up so you could smash him.... YOU WHERE AT WAR THEN!!!!!! You should have been looking over your shoulder though .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  21. Once again DSE comes up with the goods! That will be a very very handy bit of info....And funded...
  22. Thanks for the pics...That looked a lot better that mine.... Looks like its time for a century lens..... .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  23. God DAMN thats some funny shit!!! Im going to make a big "FREE XENU" sign and picket next to all those guys doing the Dianetic tests in the city!!!! .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  24. Great article ...Thanks for the read! .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
  25. Roosevelt did several very questionable acts: 1. The exchange of American destroyers for British bases, September, 1940. - This was a clear departure from neutrality and was also a violation of some specific American laws. 2. The Lend-Lease Act in March, 1941. - In complete contradiction to the Neutrality Act, this made the United States a partner in the economic war against the Axis Powers globally. 3. The secret American-British staff talks in Washington in January - March, 1941. - Carefully concealed from congress at the time. At this time the administration spokesmen were still assuring everyone that there were no warlike implicationsof the Lend-Lease Act. 4. The inauguration of "naval patrols" for the purpose of reporting the presence of German submarines to British warships, in the Atlantic in April, 1941. 5. Sending American laborers to Northern Ireland to build a naval base. 6. The occupation of Iceland by American troops in July, 1941. (I do hope you don't need an explanation for this one) 7. The Atlantic Conference between Roosevelt and Churchill, August 9-12, 1941. 8. The orders to American warships to shoot at sight at German submarines, announced September 11, 41. (this is when hostilities actually started, not when war was declared after pearl harbour) So if you think you where sitting around doing nothing... and then the Japanese attacked..... Then you joined the war ENTIRELY in self defense.... DREAM ON BROTHER .....And you thought Kiwis couldn't fly!!!!
