Estimates from the pentagon say that we have killed approximately 100,000 Iraqi soldiers. America has lost approximately 40 soldiers in combat, Brittain around 20... and they say the war isn't going well...

The main reason the brits are losing so many troops is because of the Iraqis.

I was talking about the Brits. The Americas have lost about 90% of their casualties to frendly fire and the other 10% to the Iraqis.

So that's something to be proud of is it ?
That your vastly technologically superior army can massacre and rain destruction down from above on an inferior military force.
Three cheers for the americans and such a courageous victory.

WOOHOOOO!!! I killed around 100,000 in a war I have been fighting in my back yard. I will admit it this war was over oil. The spill cup from my BBQ overflowed onto my patio leaving 3 tabelspoons of pure Black Angus porter-house steak oil laying unclaimed. My territory was invaded by terrorist ants intending to steal my oil. I promptly attacked using a "shock and awe strategy" . My war strategy consisted of an airal bombardment of black flag incecticide, the bottoms of my shoes, and a rolled up copy of the Seattle Times. My closest ally "Starlen" a German Shepherd spearheaded the ground attack on the western flank literally licking up the enemy.
Score

Really? that would be more sensible, but its more down to being attacked by US A4s, and missiles, and dodgy pilots who moan about flying in sand when they are trained (or are supposed to be) to fly in zero vis :/

Your analogy to this current war would mean that Iraq ran this "Shock and Awe" (which is a stupid typical American name) "campaign" and wipped out the invading armies (UK/US)

It is a typical US media nickname. Most Americans find it a ridiculous as the rest of the world. I apologize my weekend war did not completly comply with the events in currently happening in Iraq. Ants are sneakey little basterds and cannot be trusted to make for a good monday morning story.

Well, first of all i never said anything about being "proud" of it, i was merely giving a refrence to how well the Coalition is doing, because alot of people are trying to say that the war is stalled, or it's not going as planned etc..etc.. I think those numbers show something completely different.
But actually now that you mention it, i am proud of America's armed forces. Even though we do have superior technology we are doing an amazing job against these iraqi forces. Especialy when you consider the tactics the iraqis are using. Holding up children in front of them as they shoot at us, hiding in mosc's, hospital's and school's shooting at us, faking surrender then shooting at us, acting as civialians then car bombing us etc..
And let's not forget, America/UK have to win 2 wars. While taking out the Iraqi forces we also have to show the islamic world that we are not purposely killing innocent people and destroying thier mosc's, schools's,hospital's,baby milk factories etc.. This is very hard to do when every day the iraqi and other islamic countries people are being force-fed propganda lies. Just as you and others buy right into thier propaganda i'm sure so do the islamic militant people around the world. "Look how terrible the American's are they shot women and children!" Let's just leave off the bit about how we forced the driver to run the checkpoint by threating to torue and kill his whole family

I was responding to a question posted by Pc_Madness about the Yanks. Of course I know that the Americans have killed the Brits aswell.

At least the Brits and Aussies question the targets before firing at them.

Well let's not forget that the UK are in charge of Basra while the U.S. is in charge of the entire rest country. Since we are flying 1,000's more sorties per day i would expect a mistake.
It doesn't boil down to the U.S. doesn't look where it's shooting

I said they should question the target before firing.

haha, I could definately see that happening.
Pilot: Ahh, theres the target, better set her down
...After Landing... Pilot: Excuse me Mr Target, are you the target? If you are, would you mind if I dropped a bomb on you?
Originally posted by Pc_Madness haha, I could definately see that happening.
Ha ha I mean ask themselves if they think the target is a good guy or bad guy first.

Since when is the success of a war defined by amount of kills?
Use
writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
writing haskell makes your life easier:
reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.

I don't know, I just thought it was all about oil and not to kill as many iraqi as possible.

Oh, and when you're comparing victories to the amount of kills I think you've made the worst choice possible with Vietnam...
Get your facts straight bud, America lost around 40,000 soldiers.. the Vietnamese lost over 1 million.
