no, it is NOT a "great" picture, it is a pathetic picture put up by a troll who just wants to stir the pot, also, you sir, are not a "patriotic" amerikan if you think this is, indeed, a great picture...shame on you and shame on the rest of the liberal pukes who upvoted this pic (oh, and i live in Urupinsk, just so you know, not amerikan and still think this is wrong)
I agree. I love this country and always will but we need to make some big changes...and I dont necessarily mean republican to democrat(i am a republican). this country needs someone that actually wants to do and will do the right thing as our leader. I like Bush(maybe not everything about him) but its time for a change. Its time to reunite this country and make it what it supposed to be.
The photo was not posed and it was not a recreation, the famous photo was of a second raising of the flag, the first flag was too small to be seen at a distance. Read the book Flags Of Our Fathers for the definitive story. Dumbass
The British Army captured Washington, D.C. during the War of 1812 and set fire to the White House and other buildings, and Fort Detroit was held by the British Army and Canadian militia.
^ wow, have you ever considered this site might not be an American site? the internet is for the world to use (and was invented in UK and switzerland just incase you thought it was some god-given gift to the US). now shut your face you prick.
Hey Jose, get hosed, hey? You need to gather up the rest of your buds and head south of the border where you belong. I hope they finally decide to deport all your types, of which there are already over 13 million, back to bean country. We don't need your kind here. That goes for you brits and rag-head rug merchants and any of you anti-American left wing, environmental faggots as well. God Bless the USA! We ROCK, you suck!
its the capitol building, not the white house....the building on fire is where the people who cannot come to a consensus when parties opposite a president are in control, or rubber stamp the actions of the president when the congress and president are of the same party...either way the system is broken.
Way too much pride and spelling errors in this post! Can't you just laugh at alternative history to show your true confidence...you do have that, do you?
Honestly! Russia sucks and everyone here knows it. Your ex-'czar' Putin murdered his detractors, the mob runs most commerce, and your infrastructure is a collapsing memory of an obsolete joke. I'd say you (and we) should look after your own shit before you start your pathetic vodka-fueled crowing. Most of the rest of the world is pulling for you, you know. We hope you don't fuck it up, but it looks like you're going to do just that.
Come on you guys...China is not taking over, Russia is still in worse shape then the American dollar and the war is going to continue for the next 100 years just like it has for the last 100 years. Media has done nothing but blind your sense of thought. Grow up and not be bothered by a dreamers painting of wishful thinking to his own thoughts. And no it is not just Bush's fault that America is slipping. We as a country have to get off of our fat asses and quit pointing the finger of guilt and take a good look in the mirror where change should start.
MAN this picture does surely ROCK :) ... i LOVE IT ... :) u amees just dont get it do you :) ... well world ended at your borders. but this one RULES .. and since it has so many posts it surely did have effect as mentioned :) ... im from slovakia btw.
The photo on Iwo Jimo was staged by the photographer as a propaganda picture (check it out). The US had nothing to do with the collapse of Communism, it managed it all by its self. Reagan was a puppet.
Good night.
Jez people, what is with all the hate? China you said? Remeber the Japan in the 80's? Mexico in the 90's? and China 00s will be the same, inflate their economy, wait until loser get in the bandwagon, pull out, rake in the cash!
i lived (in poland), in times of bolshevism (communism never existed) applied as an political system and it really was not fun.
BUT as for me american imperialism, and corporational capitalism is as cruel and inhuman as bolshevism. btw this picture sux. its kitschy.
What are you people talking about? Your children are going to be paying the Chinese interest on the money you borrowed to invade Iraq (and lose) for generations to come. They already own you.
Wow, I've never seen a picture get so many comments.
If such an event did occur, I doubt it would affect my life to much. I'm just a poor working stiff, you know!
Oh grow up. You yanks are so ......
Are you refering to how you kicked communists ass just as you are doing so well to the muslims now.
The world does not end at the borders of America.
