why we fight

this is a documentary against the Bush administration

although there is really nothing new in this, it just seems the people behind it have alot more solid info to back them up
its, of course, a negative view but really makes you sit back and think
theres a part in it about the defense contractors thats especially good

If you would have a brain you wouldnt post such a bullsh1t! i just asked if this is a title of a docu or what. Just to remind some of the BMīs that not everybody is a Brit or a yank and doesnt see all engl/american news!

If he had started his thread in a way like petter did it, i wouldnt have asked smartar$e

It wasnt clear if its a title of a book or movie/docu. which i also assumed

Maybe he didnt want to goggle it

Anyway Petter is not from England or America either, And he understood

Btw.. You were the first with the smartar$ed comments about Jonny, And then to finish it off, Your smartar$ed sarcastic remark to Marc (BTW; THANKS FOR THE THREAD MARC)... Dont forget that

There has been alot of aggresion on this board recently.

It makes me cry a single tear when I go to bed!


I wish everyone was like Geir and be more interested in wearing Handbags than fighting with them!

to be honest, i thought you were being a little ridiculous also, but didnt make a big deal of it
in my original post, i wrote the title in the heading and then the 1st line says its a documentary
anyways, its a good doc to watch, although dont know how available it is over seas

Its a good doc marc,no question. But what made me angry is that because of one misunderstanding, that there is someone coming out of the toilet and calls me brainless. I am not a native english speaker and in my understanding it could have been a book or a filmreport.We had enough bashing in the past weeks because of some misunderstandings, most because of the language. I have said it many times that the english native speaking BMīs should have more respect to those BMīs who are not native english speaking.
I am sure that many non active BMīs dont post in the forum because they are not familiar with the english language and dont want to get slapped because of a grammatical mistake or using a wrong phrase. This happened many times in the past.

And just a question to Allybabba22: How many foreign languages can you speak fluent either then english? Dont hesitate to write me the answer either in German,French,Italian or Russian, i will understand it

First of all, The only languages I speak are Irish and English, Thats why I post on a english speaking forum

Anyway so now its because your first language is not English... So that makes it ok too be rude and obnoxious then?

Again you were the first person to start with the smartar$e remarks and sacarstic comments, So you reap what you sow IMO... And btw my first reply to this post was tounge in cheek, I did not mean it literally....
















But on second thoughts, I was probably right the first time...555555555...

Thank you Ally, seems to be another ´cultural misunderstanding by me. I didn´t knew that it is a gentle behaviour in Ireland and not rude to call somebody brainless. I will remind that for my next post to you. You are never to old to learn something new, so do i.

Just reread again your post to me and just to make it clear again: My remark about IJ wasnt smartar$sed imho, it was meant as a joke,because this is Jonnys standard reply to many questions and neither offending Jonny nor marc.

And my statement to marc was not sarcastic, it was meant like its written. Because as i already said, not everything appears here in europe and i think this docu is informativ. So who of us needs some english lessons?

Unfortunatly another good thread turned into sh1t, just because you jumped in offending me, sorry for that marc

Why we fight....

1) Starts out with a misunderstanding

2) Someone who misunderstood makes a comment which a 3rd party takes as a slight to a friend.

3) A flippant remark is made!

4) The other person is offended and defends himself by striking back at the perceived aggressor.

5) A volley of shots is exchanged.

7) Bombs are loaded on the planes headed to Ireland and Germany!

I think you covered most of it Jaybee, but one important reason 'why we fight' that you missed of your list is 'because young men do...'

As far as I am concerned, Your remarks to Jonny and Marc was smartar$ed comments, Thats why I replied with my tounge in cheek remark, You took it literally and here we still are now... I said all I have to say on this subject.
