I know that the forum is full of threads about Iraq and the POW's. But that thread was not about Iraq. I think it was a geuine and interesting discussion that couldn't have been added to any of the existing threads.

If we allowed it,the forums would be
filled with hundreds of individual threads
concerning this war.You can add your
post to the general war thread that is
ongoing.

Yes, I would also like to know why this thread was locked. The moderators seem to be getting very trigger-happy with the locks. I would hate to think that there is any censorship going on here. The post in question might be seen as being critical of the US military, but it's a valid discussion.
