To Iraq and Back

[ArmenianKid]

Yeah as a few of you know im in the US Army, and i was sent to Iraq a few months back, as you can tell i made it back.

The only really cool thing that happened was that i met Armenian Soldiers.
The bad part? they were xxxxs to me.

A saw a few other guys from my unit talking to them, so i went up to say hi and they wanted nothing to do with me,

i think i may have stumbled over some armenian heheh.
But for those who dont know, they are fighting damn good over there.

Re: To Iraq and Back

Im a tanker, so i did my tour in a tank. I hit 4 IEDs, didn't leave a dent.

I got promoted a few times, made a crap load of money in combat pay, and only got wounded once.

i cant complain.

Re: To Iraq and Back

Have you read Thunder Run? Did Iraqis attack your tank with AKs?
As for the Armenian soldiers, eh... don't you just love our people's love for one another?
And you said they're fighting damn good, are they actually fighting? I thought they were non-combat?
Stay safe.

ArmenianKid,

I don't know what to say, save, thank you. Thank you so much for doing what many of us wont. Glad you made it back. I'm sorry you got wounded; what happened? Also, ROTFLOLOL at the "I didn't leave a dent" statement.

God Bless You, Kid.

Go preach your fairytales elsewhere GI Joe. They are getting their high tech a-s-s-e-s licked all over the place by a bunch of sandal wearing rag heads over there.

That disgusting war is an absolute failure, and was a failure even before it started. And it will get much worst before the idiots you serve with run back home in disgrace. The simple reality is that the American military is a force of evil in the world today, they are international criminals and the US has no business being over in Iraq. Now that the nation is utterly broken, criminals are stuck there and don't know what to do.

Oh, wait a minute, what even happened to Ossama Bin Laden? Hey, everyone knows he is in Pakistan. Right? So why are there 150,000 idiots running around in the deserts of Iraq? Still looking for WMDs...? Hey, the North Koreans just launched a number of WMDs (ICBM) over the July 4th weekend. Why are we not invading North Korea, GI Joe? Oh, I almost forgot - there is no oil there and they have not threatened Israel.

Idiots like you, who sign up to fight wars for big corporation, the oil lobby and Israel are what politicians in Washington DC dream about every night.

Re: To Iraq and Back

Armenian Kid, way to make us proud. You da man. Glad you are safe and sound back at home. As far as some ungrateful morons that may live in the US but at every chance scream how horrible it is, just ignore them. They have personal problems that they need to figure out on their own.

Re: To Iraq and Back

Tell us, GI Joe, if they decided to do the same thing to Armenia....would you go over like a good little boy? I hope you don't have any innocent blood on your hands. No wonder the Armenian guys wouldn't talk to you. They have no choice, but you did.

Anyone who cannot admit that everything the US is doing is against international law and constitutes war crimes has major issues and like I read on a forum that George Carlin said, "It's called 'The American Dream' because you have to be asleep to believe it"

Too bad you never woke up while you were over there. Obviously you didn't or you wouldn't be here bragging.

Re: To Iraq and Back

let me address a few things here for a minute.

1) i made this thread to tell you guys that the Armenian soldiers there are fighting, and doing damn good. even though they are only supposed to be support.
2) i dont have "innocent blood" on my hands. we only fired unless fired upon. i cant speak for all units, but that is what mine did.
3) to the jackass who seems to be stuck in vietnam, im not a bloodthirsty killer. im a 18 year old who had no other way to get himself threw school then to join the army.
4)i didnt have a choice either, i joined the army i dont get to say "no" when they need me for what i signed up for. Im sure the armenians were the same way.
5) i wont say if i support the war or not, thats not my job
6) but i have heard SOMEPEOPLE say it was total ilegal and wrong. but thats just some people.
7) quit calling me GI joe you douchebags.
