i suppose if you can this a victory... considering weve lost over 1000 troops since we declared our 'win'.
BTW i didnt say 'the war in iraq is such a damn mess' i said iraq is a mess, meaning the insurgency that we neglected to see coming after having seen the soviets invade afghanistan, and what an insurgency as seen in vietnam can do to a fighting force as well as the people back home.

half the people in iraq think we are invading them cant really blame them for resisting

its not they think we are invading we are invading, it wasnt a very well planned op if you ask me, just look at stuff the bush administration was saying before compared to what theyre saying now, at first they doubted we would be there 6 months, hindsight i guess is 20/20 though.

Back on subject, I think it'd be pretty nice if you could choose gender while you choose class. I mean, It might not do anything but change looks of the model, but it would add some nice adversity to the army.

Israel is the only Army allowing women to fight on the frontlines.

really? just israel?

i knew there weren't as many men as women but only one country allows them on the front line?

My country allow women on the battlefield too, at at the front lines, and we currently have a lot of troops in Iraq, so that's an untrue statement.

Only one that I was aware of that had actual positions for women and men. Excluding militia groups etc etc.

Serving in iraq doesn't mean they serve on the front line, they won't be included in assualting a town or something. You'll find most of them are with the logistics; support, medicine.

Not OUR girls, they are free to choose wether or not they want to be in direct assault groups.

Women arn't allowed to serve in frontline combat units for obvious reasons. Yes, they are in support units as the theory back in '94 was that they would not see combat "behind the lines". American armed forces now know the hard way that in a war without front lines an attack can come from anywhere and at any time. BF2 recreates combat units so I don't think there is a need to include them.

I personaly and from experience think women have no business in the Military, but that is just my opinion.
