So they are not ready yet for another Tonkin fiasco, are maybe the American public are catching up on the shennanigans of neocons and their masters Zionists. We can only hope it is the latter reason.

and a lot of space, all Charles should do is post his name. All that ever comes after it is crap. Get a life Charles. By sitting on this site all you do is show the world what an idiot you are.

Don't like the word Tonkin? Does it have connotations you don't like? Connotations like it was a clusterf*ck? One right big screwup by the invincible US navy? Shooting at shadows, and each other? You Say you were an OOD, or Officer On Deck. I'd believe it. Right on the deck, falling down drunk. Now your tin pot navy is back pedalling as fast as it can, while Bush is full stem ahead. What a team effort you jokers are.

Hey, CharlesJan 11th, 2008 - 19:11:49

Mistake any civilian airliners flying at 20,000 feet for a military aircraft on the ground, and shoot it down, lately? Were you at Tonkin, or on that Aegis ship? Tonkin give you BAD memories?

Charles is also a historian. You should read his words about how Palestine was populated and he really believes in what he writes.

can't read. Charles can't write or think. Charles doesn't believe in anything. Charles can only do as he is told, for Charles is a NAVY man.

Thanks for all the attention!

I never said I was ood. I did repost a comment in quotes from a naval officer (NYT blog) who described the 'channel 16' controversy that is now being acknowledged by all. You need to work on your reading comprehension skills. That explains a lot actually.

'You should read his words about how Palestine was populated and he really believes in what he writes.'

If I am incorrect on any points of fact you are invited to post a correction. Funny that you spend more time criticizing me rather than refuting my points. That explains a lot actually.

And what is this 'Palestine' you refer to? Could someone point to it on a map for me? There was one a couple thousand years ago - but it was really 'Judea' that had been renamed by the Romans to spite the jews. The inhabitants of this ancient land have nothing to do ethnically with the arabs that currently inhabit the former 'Palestine Mandate' or what is now known as Jordan and Israel.

Rather than calling me bad names, why not be polite and show me where I am mistaken?
