Russians have more to lose?

Russia is dividing and conquering???? We have military bases in like 200 countries and are “liberating” the middle east by eliminating stable secular governments. Since the USSR, Russia has had 2 border disputes. I don’t know much about the Georgia conflict, but the Ukrainian issue was instigated by the US. If they…

All this tiny cock measuring contests are going to get us all killed

In fairness, we contribute more because we love dropping democracy and freedom bombs on people more often than other nations.

Wait until you are 65, have 60% of a social security check, and a voucher for the immediate clinic as your health insurance. Then, read that comment back to yourself

No surprise here. The country had to choose between the two worst possible options for POTUS. This time there was no lesser evil, and an incompetent narcissistic naive egomaniac is going to be chewed up and spat out by Putin. If anyone wonders why they wanted trump to win, it’s coming into view now. Thank Dog I…

In my experience, anyone who has been to war would try to avoid it in the future. I’ve never heard of him being described as impulsive, if anything he likes to know everything he can about any subject.

No evidence has actually been given. Just vague accusations. Though, Obama did give taxpayer money to the opposition of Netanyahu during Israeli election season. And Obama did have a foray into British politics by taking a stance on Brexit.

So Terrell-

When the country is spending more on defense than the next 4 countries combined, that’s probably a good indicator that the budget is too high.

To ask that question signals that you have not followed the development of this plane which, to put it charitably, is and has been a failure of epic proportions. Just read some of the stories linked in this peice for what is just the tip of the iceberg.

As someone who isn’t exactly in love with Trump, I’d like to tell everyone that you need to maybe acknowledge when he is right about something once in awhile if you want to have credibility to criticize him later.

To be fair, the F-35 program is absurdly over budget, and he wants to cut costs in many areas, including the military. There’s no reason to tweet about it, but one could say that about most of his tweets..

Surely there are thrills to be found in civilian life were you live

Sometimes, not often, but sometimes, deep down, where it’s dark and wet, I sort of miss active duty. A little. Not much, but a little. I mean, it was exhausting, boring, and sometimes frightening as hell. But we did amazing, impossible, ridiculously dangerous shit virtually all of the time. Now I sit in a cube. I go…

Is it really though? Genuinely asking, I’ve never seen one from this angle before. My only experience with one was in a negative-4G inverted dive, so it was hard to tell much about it.

Duh, everybody knows this is what a MiG looks like:

It’s an improvement. Another defense blog talking about the recent losses on the Kuznetsov talked about losing a MiG and a Sukhoi... then showed a Rafale landing on the de Gaulle as the main image.

But I think a lot of liberals have some explaining to do about where they’ve been for the past 8 years.

I love it when people use the term “liberals”. It means I can go ahead and ignore whatever else it is they are trying to say.
