How did the Islamic Republic of Iran let you fly as a pilot when your cousins were Americans?:hmm:
Technically we're related by marriage (my brother, Abdhul, married an American woman; he gave me the boxes, and it wasn't until I opened them till I found what was inside; it's complex).

And they let me fly because they didn't know that side of the family (American side). Not surprised that he's not on that webpage since only 2 kills were confirmed (5 were counted as probable, 1 was called as unconfirmed).

EDIT:

Huh, the pictures are gone. I'll rescan them and post them back tomorrow (bloody Photobucket).

Note that until today so-called collateral damage from aerial bombing is nothing more than the intentional acceptance of eventually killing civilians if they happen to be too close to the target. According headloines from Iraq and Afghanistan have been in the news at least once per month if not per week during the past years.
We had that problem when Iraq attacked us and invaded. It wasn't necessarily that the civilians hadn't chosen to leave as much as it was they had nowhere safe to go. Constant missile barrages, bombings, and shelling from Iraqi artillery. After a while, you just learn to adapt to it, you know? You know what to do and when to do it. The civilians were no different when Saddam shelled out cities.

Now Basra was a different case. If you were an innocent and were still there, you were shot. Pure and simple. You were warned, it was time to leave, and now we were going into the breach. For the conditions during the war and Basra, you could have been an Iraqi militant, and we didn't take chances. We played it safe, but we lost many, many good soldiers during that time.

It's not Clinton's fault. These people are just trying to pin the blame on him and walk away from the scene of the crime. Nixon is the first one who did major wiretapping schemes (not something you'd read about everyday), not Clinton.

When did you leave AT&T and join the military in Islamic Republic of Iran?

Bravo, Happy... Bravo...

I've always known it would be a matter of time before someone found out, and it's finally come. I'm not a bull****ter, no, there's actually a reason to my posts.

You see, Happy, for the past year now I've been using my account on this website to document how easy it is to deceive on the Internet. It's amazing what some people will believe, and I've wanted to get the facts. It's actually more or less my job. I'm actually intending to write a book on it and perhaps finally get people to understand how you never really know who you're soliciting with online. Every post I've made on this site I've kept in an MS Word file as well as the replies (along with notes I've made on them). Every single post I've made on this site is included in it (and this one shall also be added). I've done the same with three other sites over the years (but I won't name them; still have some experimenting to do with them and I must keep it secret).

You, Happy, are indeed wise enough to know that you should always check up on who you're hanging around with, and I'm glad to know it. So many idiots out there who will believe anything you post. Although, not everything I've posted has been utter crap (actually, I've taken a liking to you guys and dulled down on you). For instance, I am Iranian, I did live in Tehran, I was in the Iranian military during the war (just for two years, however), I am 51 today and still feeling young, I was a captain in the service, and I did shoot at a burglar who attempted to break in (although that was in Tehran and not in Texas; also note that I used the words "shoot at"; he completely got away). However, I never have worked for AT&T (that was based off my brother, Abdhul, who does in fact live in the United States), I've never shot prisoners of war, I was never a pilot during the war, and I didn't enter the war until August of 1986.

Hopefully, everyone else is smart enough to know that a forum is just words and icons, nothing more. You don't know who you're talking with, and you don't know what the person's case is. If you DID however believe everything I've said in past posts, then you really don't want to use the Internet because it is filled with lies. This is a lesson you've got to learn. Never trust who you're with online unless you've actually met them (but that doesn't mean you should run out and set up a date, time and place).

By the way, this Randall Tuttle existed. However, he was not a military ace in any regard. In fact, I took the photos from this FindAGrave.com memorial (this guy, Jurgens, was foolish enough to post links to this memorial all over the Internet; still, I left flowers on it; and the other guy, John Cornwell, that I claimed to be relation to also came off the same user; you can see the photo's from that site; I've also gotten the fine opportunity to raid his Photobucket account, and I must say I do agree with his tastes):
