#PAD...Public Assistance Defunder.

Wikipedia is not that great of a source, you should know that. Especially on something that is not a Western/American topic such as “Nord Stream”.

Yes, absolutely. Without a millisecond of hesitation. They did it in 2003, and very often before that. Why wouldn’t they? They are just regular people like all over the world, no matter what the American media has led you to believe.

Most definitely not, if all the best divisions (SS included) and generals weren’t on the Eastern Front, they would have pummeled you back into the English Channel starting with Ardennes. Russians accounted for, I believe 8 out of every 10 dead Germans. Albeit at a very high cost. You can split the credit for the…

So power, much determination.

Not trying to argue, but I would think more criticism of the primary education would be warranted rather than our colleges which are no doubt the best in the world albeit outrageously overpriced. At the same time, you have private schools (primary) in New England and probably California charging college tuition for an…

This is an idiotic comment. Albeit you might be in California, I doubt you’re educated at all, pity as you have some very good in-state public schools that are the envy of the other 49 states.

They took our jobs!

Many around the world might call the Israeli leadership exactly the opposite of what you used to describe the rulers of South Africa. Why do you get to decide if Israel can have it and Iran can’t?

I really doubt that. If anything, the Soviets could’ve driven out the Americans into the English Channel at that point. Germans had better armor than the US, etc, and at that point were arguably better in most (if not all) aspects. Soviet tactics were absolute shit, but it worked against the Germans who were preparing…

Dude no. The people CNN chooses to say “I love America!”on their segments definitely do not represent the majority opinion of those people, unfortunately.

Alright Senator Tom Cotton. Round up the boys and lets go!

As someone with a background in biology and a personal interest in military history and technology, this is the best comment I have ever come across on here. Congratulations.

Wow, that’s fucked up. You seem rather uneducated, so I hope you don’t make many decisions throughout the workday.

Many bad memories brought back from reading this thread. Anyone else here ever go through the border crossing at Buffalo? The absolute worst people work there. Everyone also happens to have a Polish last name. I wish there was a better way back, might try the Detroit/Windsor border crossing next time.

So many “ifs” Jerry. If my aunt had nuts, she’d be my uncle.

Not a putinbot, live in Cincinnati (unfortunately). Just pretty frustrating reading some vitriolic comments left by uneducated rednecks. I know the US is great, but its definitely not a utopia, financially or otherwise.

Commissioned in 1982, that’s really old? Both Ohio class and Los Angeles class are older. From what I have read, its also been upgraded numerous times. Seems to be a decent, quiet submarine. They need something smaller to complement the Typhoon, Boreis, Oscars, and Kilos.

Indeed I did, still its been a few years. No reason a country with such a budget should ever diverge funding/resources from space/science.
