Oh, I wasn’t trying to suggest that, more that on balance, that Russia was probably a lot less of a threat than it is perceived by the west.

Heh, I get your point and not trolling.

Influence and power in their perceived sphere of influence. Regaining nominal control of former soviet republics through diplomacy, hybrid warfare or outright coercion.

Vulvarity

I’ve got pretty awful eyesight (-10 and -7.5), thus far I’ve been told I’m at the very edge of laser surgery, but they’ve been talking about something called “Wave front” did they mention anything about that to you?

I know this pain, I will still never forgive myself for selling my personally restored 1979 Morris Mini to a guy that was going to “drop a 1.6 Toyota engine in it”. Fortunately the UK does not have CarFax so I don’t know which tree he managed to slam that beautiful machine into.

I only starred yours.

Yep, the DOD probably has no idea what caused it so they went with the simple rationalisation “the F35 is stealth right? We’ll say it was that”.

“I see you’re passing the sound barrier”

The twitterverse is reporting it was F35 testing over the Patuxent River in Maryland.

Old comment I know, but you brought this Englishman a lot of joy.

I grew up next to Portsmouth (UK) and was always hanging out around the dockyard after school, we had an F111 do a dump and burn right over our heads once. It was incredible!

They were procured and used by Australia until the mid 2000's.

As someone who is British, lived in Britain for 30 years and is very familiar with guns (coming from a military family), guns are highly illegal in the UK - simply having one concealed is enough to have the armed police called (yep, our police don’t carry guns, something I’m equally thankful for, and something the…

The flip side, which I prefer is that you can be confident that the burglars don’t have guns. 14 year old me was pretty damned grateful for this when he chased off a couple of guys trying to break into his house with a hockey stick.

I see what you’re trying to do, however, your fallacy is in treating a woman’s sexual integrity (whatever the hell that is) and a person as two seperate things.

I think you meant German there somewhere ;)
