Really good way to start out, posting in the middle of a flamewar (http://www.militaryphotos.net/forums/viewtopic.php?p=153395&highlight=#153395) .
whoop american ass ? How because we lose one or two daily? How long would mustardland (finland) last in Iraq? Any ways we could run over your asses in a heartbeat and yes I might be military but If I tell you I would have to kill you..
ANd russian vodka is better!
Yeah, the ignorance of some American males has yet to cease to amuse me. You go right ahead and "declare" war on the Finns... you'll succeed only in pissing off a whole lot of Finns, over in "mustardland", as well as in America here. You would be surprised at the number of Finnish-Americans there are, I think. I also think that, despite the great deal of cold-weather training and experience of Finnish units, they would adapt quickly if such was expected of them, and they’d do their jobs regardless of any losses (“one or two daily”, which does tend to add up after awhile.) Why? Because we Finns have something called sisu. And yes, I’m being pro-Finnish because I am Finnish. Slam me for that if you want, I’m used to that sort of ignorance.
Ever heard of the Finn temper? A lot of us have it. It makes us ****e to defending ourselves and, quite often, our country and culture, from the ignorance of others who believe in their own supposed godliness. I once busted someone's nose for calling me a Lapp.... so maybe this is a topic you would be best served in avoiding. I would hate to see anybody flamed too hard for carrying on with their arrogant assumptions.
By the way, minun ystävä, I would like to point out that not all greatness is determined by direct, head-to-head confrontation and overt warfare. Sometimes subtlety wins more favour and renown than larger shows of force. (May I draw your attention to the Winter War of 30 November 1939 - 13 March 1940. Even though the Finns lost, they earned a well-deserved reputation for courage and skill in combat.)
Never had Finlandia vodka, then, I take it. Don’t know what you’re missing.

The right wing America hates the palestinians and othe islamics so much.(biggotry is a popular thing with right wingers...) But they are so hypicritical for not seeing with there own "truth seeing eyes", that the republicans are parallel to the palestinians and other muslims when it comes to politics. They dont have there own belives, they dont have a free mind, they think they are right with God... lmao. Instead of a mullah, they listen to a president, senator, or anyone else who says what they want to hear. You mock leftist for calling you nazis, but in debate calling a liberal a commie is about the only thing you can ever say.
You say our troops are fighting for freedom?...roflao! Forum posters dont know anything about foreign policy or domestic affairs lol. Do you like being a superpower? I do. When America goes to supposedly "free" a country. (as the brianwas... er the rightwing) like to say. We are not there for humane reasons, were there to secure our diminishing role as world superpower. The only reason they falsly report going to "free" a country is so the left wont throw a fit, but the really pathetic thing is that more republicans belive that lie than the liberals!
Oh and another thing that also makes me wonder about the right wings intteligence is the fact that they seem unaware of the many domestic issues here at home. The off-shoring of american jobs, national debt, electronic voting(the manufacturer of e-voting machines is good friend and staunch supporter of Bush ) Education. Oh, and we supposedly went to help iraqis, but what about americans that need help?!90million americans live in poverty(Oh but I forgot, if I try and help someone within my own country im communist, but if I help someone outside of my country then Im a hero )
The right wing is a joke. No education, no original opinion. You belive what George Bush TELLS YOU to belive. (YOU belong in the WEST BANK not AMERICA!!!)

Here's mine. Jeez, I was a total jackass even back then! :lol:
hahaha wrote:
What is a "jew" ? Is it a term used for nationality or a term used to describe what religion you are ?
"Jew" can either refer to ethnicity or religion. The vast majority of Jews are both religiously and ethnically Jewish, but there are some exceptions. If someone is of a Jewish heritage (Jewish heritage is traced down the mother's line), they are ethnically Jewish. In other words, they're "Jewish" instead of "Dutch" or "Kurdish." If someone practices the religion known as "Judaism," they are religiously Jewish. In other words, they're "Jewish" instead of "Hindu" or "Baptist."
If you have someone named "Joseph Goldstein" whose mother was Jewish, but he's a Buddhist or atheist, then he is ethnically Jewish but not religiously Jewish.
If someone of German Lutheran descent were to convert to Judaism (say, they married a Jew and agreed to convert), they would be religiously Jewish but not ethnically Jewish. Conversions are rare, though, because Judaism is not an evangelical religion--Jews are not told to go out and win converts like many Christians and Muslims are told to. The marriage scenario is the only common reason for conversion to Judaism that I've heard of.
I know a couple people who have tried to end this confusion by using the term "Judaism" to refer specifically to the religion and "Hebrew" to refer to the ethnicity, but this never caught on.
........................................................
I've always wondered about the term "Jewish" being ethnic vs. religious. The state of Israel wasn't created until, what 1946 or so? A citizen of Israel is an Israeli - not necessarily Jewish. The religion of one's parent's doesn't dictate the ethnicity of a child, does it? I mean if 2 Asians converted to Judaism, and had a child, and the kid is asked what ethnic group they're from, they can hardly answer "Jewish"?
People have been living on that little strip of land for thousands of years. It's changed hands countless times. Ethnic groups have interbred (the young tend to be preoccupied with the private parts of the opposite ***, not necessarily their theology)...so by now who's to say who is what?
Kind of like the way fans root for their favorite football team - despite the fact that the players/coaches/home fields constantly change and only the uniform stays constant. Just an observation - I can't think of any other religion/nationality that gets so convoluted

My first post
Maybe I'm crazy but I'd join in a heartbeat. Applied for one of them greencards, don't hold much hope to getting one of those though. Guess I'll just have to accept that I'm not supposed to be fighting in another countrys military.
That's to bad I think. Unlike many of my countrymen who consider terrorism to be "the other guys" problem I consider it to be everyones problem. Seeing and hearing young people, men and women alike getting killed in the war on terror. Makes me feel that I ought to do something, why am I getting away so cheap.
My deepest respect to all active duty, reserve and former servicemembers.
Still haven't received any greencard though :( , but this years lottery isn't over yet woot . Man if I don't get one this year I'm gonna be like "man that sucks" :( , then I'm gonna wait till November and I'm like gonna apply for next years lottery. If I don't get it then I'm gonna be like 23 or somethin', and still without a greencard. Man I'm gettin' old, I'm like halfway to the nursing home. ;)
