countries that support US millitary action..
Afghanistan, Albania, Australia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Colombia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, El Salvador, Eritrea, Estonia, Ethiopia, Georgia, Hungary, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, the Netherlands, Nicaragua, the Philippines, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Turkey, United Kingdom and Uzbekistan
see anything wrong with this picture?
"It was not clear what support countries like Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Bulgaria were providing to the US coalition, but many are seeking US financial or military support through Nato.
And the US had promises of support from some of the countries which are already involved in the war on terrorism, including Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Georgia, and the Philippines. "
"In South America Only El Salvador, Nicaragua and Colombia - where the US is funding a huge anti-drugs war - were prepared to be identified with the US coalition."
"And the only two African countries which are on the list, Ethiopia and Eritrea, are bitter rivals who are both seeking US support in a boundary dispute"

I'm so ashamed of my country at the moment. Goddammit, stupid cunts! They'll give this war political support and a couple of F-16's but they won't send any troops unless the US asks us for it.

That pic of Tolstoyed's "crossed the line". hence it was deleted...
The recent influx of inappropriate images here... anyone would think JOnesy and Meho had clubbed together to buy the ability to post pictures ;)

The line= Whatever mods/webmaster deem appropriate.
I don't know what Phob's official line is on this, but I'd say a good rule of thumb would be this:
Imagine you're in school or work. Would you be happy for your boss/teacher (okay, you might have a very easy going one, but I mean most bosses or teachers) to see the picture, or do you think you'd get into trouble for it?
Marlowe: Of course you're the target of racism, all romany people are theives and vagabonds. I am of course joshing.
I get it too sometimes, I'm actually a lot more dark skinned than either of those pics of me show (I appear quite pale on film for some reason...) and people view me with suspicion too.

You mean text and picture?
I'd say you'd get away with more in text form as it's not so likely to get people into trouble (it's not so apparent when you glance at the screen) as a gratuitous picture. With text a lot of it is the way it's presented, is it humourous or looking to be offensive?
However, we won't hesistate to close/delete obscene text either...

Afghanistan is a mess. the country is in turmoil with an ineffective government. the US promised a huge amount of support and doesn't give it.
thats what the US left behind.
