You were making fun of the af and then you pussed out.

For the record, the dude that checked you once compared the AF to being in prison and, in the same post, bragged about his TDY to Paris.

Nah, I stand by the statement and I'm sure I got it right when I was on the phone with the pollster. I'm just realizing I made a dumb wording mistake in the post. It's not pussing out, it's being a good sport about my own mistakes. It's okay to sometimes make mistakes on the internet Veins, and it's okay to recognize those mistakes and have some good humor about it. :3:

Police in the next city over got themselves one of those surplus MRAPs and brought it out to a domestic disturbance. To be fair it was reported that the guy had a gun so it's not like he was just punching holes in the wall or something. I'm kind of envious of the giant ruts these guys dug into this guy's lawn.

Heh, speaking of military selling and giving away poo poo; A couple of years back, my country (Norway) sold off a 4 billion underground submarine base for nickles and dimes to a private business man. This business man then turned around and sold it to the russians. Now a russian "research" company is using it. As an added bonus the prime minister who greenlighted the sale is now the secretary general of NATO. :woop:

Welcome to the wonderful world of Scandinavian defence. It's like when a few years ago Sweden mothballed their entire fleet of fully functioning sub hunter-spec Sea Knights, literally putting them in a museum, because at the time the political consensus was that Russia was totally their BFF now so they sure as poo poo wouldn't be needing those things ever again, right guys? :downs:

Sometimes I think maybe having several of your military bases and hardware manufacturing facilities act as pork-barrel concessions for individual Senators and Representatives and thus immune from mothballing might not be such a bad thing, after all.

I can only hope that its all infact a very convoluted and expensive plan to make the base a honeypot for russian intelligence so the Norwegian/NATO intelligence agencies can have a close look at how they operate.

Bah, who am I kidding. Welcome to Scandinavian politics, its what happens when left wing idealists get free reign.

As far as the Middle East goes, the Mongols are really just getting sloppy seconds. The Crusades and various wars with the Romans made them easy pickings.
