I heard about the hypnotist thief! Amusing!

[Tommy]

Anyway, onto other news.

Anyone heard the story about the hypnotist thief in Italy?
Link

   So funny.

Its not so simple, Mark. The army say they don't recruit, they just tell the students what life is like in the army.

Alex, by the way, it'd be almost impossible for someone to get something in to you at Singapore, because he'd have to get it through the security in Singapore. I haven't been to a single country, ever, even the States and Israel (which are notorious over the level of their security), which have x-rays when you enter the country.

Yeah I know it's pretty unlikely. But what if he was an airport worker or a cleaner or something? Not saying it would actually happen, just saying it's possible I could have acquired something there, then get it through Heathrow without any trouble. I agree with X-rays before entering the country for this reason. You can never be too careful. It's always possible you picked up something after the check where you departed, or maybe even something was missed in that check (or perhaps it was somewhere dodgy and a $5 note slipped to the guard got it through). May aswell check just to be safe. No harm done.

I don't understand you, Mark. You said you were happy with the news, which means you disapproved of what the army were doing. To that i replied that its not so simple that what the army were doing was wrong.

What I don't understand is why you suggested I thought it was "so simple"? I said I was happy with the news but did not elaborate as to why and therefore your reply was not appropriate.

[Mark]

My argument to you was just based on principle, I didn't like your assumption of me.

However, my reasoning is indeed fairly simple, I don't like the idea of anyone that young being persuaded to join the Army especially when they would be deployed for a dishonorable cause.

Firstly, IN YOUR OPINION a dishonourable cause. A lot of people would argue, including me. I'm not saying the war in Iraq was carried out correctly, but it was definitely an honourable cause IMO.

An honourable cause? Lives lost for NOTHING. What's honourable about that?

[Yamor]

1) if you read back my posts you'll see all i ever meant was its not so simple, and you should hear the other side of the story first, because they argue they weren't saying anything other then the truth about life in the army.
2) i feel its honourable because of the way Iraqis were being treated under the old regime. I never said i thought the way the war was carried out was correct, but i hold of the original decision to go to war. So i feel its honourable.
