You —

Well This is the new new No Topic Topic. 😛

For those who do not know, this place is to talk about nothing. Nada. Zilch. And everything else which according to you does not deserve it's own topic. (Or you could choose to make a blog post)

[url=/node/1781]The other one[/url] was getting a bit long... So we have a new start.

Top American General reveals how Bush was thinking he could win the war in Iraq:

[quote=][b]Sanchez slams Bush's Iraq policy [/b]

03 Jun 2008 02:55:53

A former commander of US troops in Iraq says US President George W. Bush 'led America into a strategic blunder of historic proportions'.

Retired Lt. Gen. Ricardo S. Sanchez made the remark in his autobiography released on Monday.

Among the anecdotes in "Wiser in Battle: A Soldier's Story" is an arresting portrait of Bush after four contractors were killed in Fallujah in 2004, triggering a fierce US response that was reportedly egged on by the president.

During a videoconference with his national security team and generals, Sanchez writes, Bush launched into a 'confused' pep talk:

"Kick a**!" he quotes Bush as saying. "If somebody tries to stop the march to democracy, we will seek them out and kill them! We must be tougher than hell! This Vietnam stuff, this is not even close. It is a mind-set. We can't send that message. It's an excuse to prepare us for withdrawal."

"There is a series of moments and this is one of them. Our will is being tested, but we are resolute. We have a better way. Stay strong! Stay the course! Kill them! Be confident! Prevail! We are going to wipe them out! We are not blinking!" [/quote]

ISO is basically the camera's sensor sensitivity to light. Therefore the higher the sensitivity, the less light is needed in exposure. The lower the ISO the more light required.

Hope that helps.

Hey, I wasn't cussing you. You did nothing to deserve to be cussed. Funzo did something that deserved to be cussed!

But I now regret that too, I should not have been rude, so please forgive me for A) being rude and B) not being clear as to who I was being rude to!

[quote=Noor]why are you calling ya'qub by his non muslim name?[/quote]

James is a translation of Ya'qub. It is not a non-muslim name.

Would you get upset if someone called you Divine Light?

i didnt know james meant yaqub i thought jacob meant yaqub

Ya'qub — Sat, 7 Jun 2008 - 23:55

Jacob does mean Ya'qub. But Jacob isn't an English name, it is a Hebrew name. In French the translation is Jacques and in Irish it is Seamus. In English it is James. It Portuguese it is Tiago.

It is a world-wide name. Like John: In Arabic it is Yahya, in Russian it is Ivan, in German it is Johann, in Spanish it is Juan, in French it is Jean.

Adam is a universal name, but it doesn't vary in the way it is spelt.
