I believe a number of the 9/11 "participants" came here by way of Canada.............Quote:

Most Canadians were as appalled, shocked and angered by the events of that day as you were and we certainly shared your grief and loss.
True, untrue, doesn't really matter... We need much stricter control of who enters this country...
As for the Post, hardy an unimpeachable, unbiased newspaper!!! But then non of the media are, why would they be an exception????
I was drafted when I was 18 in 1962. My father was a career officer in the Air force and served in both world war 11 and Korea. I wanted to be the same and when I went for my physical I was told I couldn't join because I had lost two of my toes in a hunting accident when I was 16. I was so pissed off that I barged into a Major's office and stared shouting that I could do anything that a normal person with all 5 toes could do and he started laughing when I started do jumping jacks, etc. and take in mind I was butt naked. I have a bad temper and told him why the fu### was he in the service when he was about 50lbs. overweight. Needless to say I was escorted out real quick.
Long story short I lost 3 friends who I went over to have my physical with in early Nam. They all wrote me the same thing that they were all gung ho to fight but in early nam there wasn't much except crossing over to Cambodia. Later in 67 and 68 some more of my freinds wrote back saying theres no way we can win this war and every time they went out on patrol they would get into a fire fight and it could last a few minutes to all day but every one of them said they were order to withdraw even though they had killed most of the enemy. Why retreat when they were winning? Because of the big shots in Washington were satisfied with a few body counts. Hell I get so pissed off just thinking about it I can't say anymore. You vets know what I'm talking about.
chevy 37,
I know what you’re saying I had 4 older brothers they all were in wars, Korea, Vietnam.
I stayed State side not because I wanted to but that was my orders, I volunteered for Korea denied, because I had earlier been on orders but the order was revoked. I guess things happen for a reason the brother next to me has since died 3 years ago from agent orange just when he turned 62. I was in the Army from 64-67.
