It’s not really that simple. You cannot blame YPG for the acts perpetrated by the PKK. YPG did benefit heavily from the Kobane situation, and it has its own flaws, but you cannot compare it to the PKK.

WW2 low level shenanigans!

Actually, half of them are second hand. Poland had received 20+ of them from Germany some 15 years ago.

I wasn’t thinking about Russia; a full scale military conflict is a topic for another discussion. What I meant are the Kurds. If the Turkey continues its moronic policy, they face another long and horrible insurgency, which will only be detrimental to them. And conditions are vastly different now, all due to wars in…

Haha, what a bunch pillocks!

You don’t need to have a UN or a Congressional approval to justify a military act that requires quick decision making. If the US military would wait for approval for its every military operation, nothing would ever be done efficiently. The justification comes from means used, the end result and the target itself.

Russia is doing things far worse than anything that US is doing right now. Today, US has bombed ISIL in Libya, which resulted in deaths of two Serbian hostages, of whose presence Pentagon had no idea. It was a legitimate airstrike.

The very fact that we consider that excrement as an ally is mindboggling.

I know the French contributions as well, I was just pointing out to the Polish ones. And I did mention Bir Hakeim in earlier post.

Thanks, I will look it up.

I want to know out of sheer curiosity; you have a South Afircan modified Mi-24 and you called me “bru”.

Fuckin ‘ell!!!!

Some people here elevate A-10 to something that it isn’t. There is no substitute for the A-10 in its niche role, but the A-10 isn’t an answer to every close air support question.

I love that stuff. But the fact that you are trying to turn Poland into a perpetrator instead of a victim is just fucking stupid.

Contribution is not measured by the numbers alone, but by the impact of the contribution.

No. 112 Squadron was beyond awesome. A Royal Air Force squadron commanded by an Autralian badass and troublemaker, with the pilots from UK, Australia, Canada, Poland and New Zealand. Also, the sharkmouth.

I didn’t know it was a “bottom shot”. Any tank is vulnerable there, and tanks in general don’t really get along with the hostile infantry at close ranges.

Jesus Batman Christ, what the fuck is the matter with you!? Seriously, what is your fucking agenda here!?

That’s not true. French gave a great contribution to an Allied war effort, just much less than the Poles did. The only really big contributions to the Axis war effort could’ve been the various fights between the Vichy and the Allies, like the Syria-Lebanon campaign; could’ve been, because the Allies kicked their…

Not about the French alone. Most of the stuff I know about them came from researching the wider campaigns of which they were only a part of.
