What i see in this war is America trying to kill off Russian allies one by one. Aure they make everything worse but still..

a reply to: Zaphod58

Wonder if there have been any reports of “unusual aircraft” in the vicinity?

The kind that require “special fuels”?

Isn’t this the kind of intelligence/surveillance/reconnaissance mission for which they were supposedly designed?


Eyes and ears peeled!

A stable government in power. I don't care which government. I don't care what form of government. Just a stable government that doesn't need us to keep meddling.

Vietnam? No, not completely.

I just suggested we should have only went into Afghanistan only.........in a different response..

Three KC-10s over the Med, 86-0027, 0036, and 82-0191. KC-135 57-2605 heading out of the Med at 36,000 feet, too high to be refueling. Heading into the Med are KC-135s 58-0094, 61-0288, 63-7999, 58-0001. A French Air Force C-135 is still orbiting over the Marseilles region.

Is the Assad government unstable?

Do you think this attack will make it more so?

I'm not being confrontational, for a change. I wonder what you think about it.

Cant Russia use what ever website you are using to see where our tankers are? Like to orient their radar systems and see where attacks originate from?

Are they literally just flying around and the world sees their position and activity?

What happens if they start getting shot at?

How do you find this info out?

This is pretty much exactly what they're designed for. That's why I said this tanker layout makes perfect sense.

There's no profit in curing a disease, and no profit in winning a war.

Flight tracking site. They're all transmitting their information.

At least they can blame that green streak across the sky as Assad's swamp gas.

What's unreal is that the opposing 'team' to Trump can't seem to grasp that these actions today are exactly what you were by default for.

What's even more unreal is that you and others here believe that people who wanted Russian interference investigated want war with Russia by default.

Do I really have to spell out how big a fail in logic that is?

Sorry, bad internet. I can't respons to everyone. I have hundreds of positions and seems like every time i just make everyone jump against me.

I support and not support at the same time. I just generally dislike Russia, Turkey and Iran because they have corrupt and totalitarian governments that are pretty much dictatorship.

Tankers aren't stealthy.

a reply to: tadaman

They don't have to use a tracking site, they're obvious on radar. There's an E-3 out there somewhere keeping a watch on them. They're operating far enough out that it would take time for anything to reach them, even a missile. If one was launched, they'd drop low, throttles firewalled, and run out of range of it.

Is the Assad government unstable?

It is now, thanks to our rebels and Obama's creation known as ISIS. They need Russian support.

They weren't until we butted in.
