This doc loving owned and will probably give everyone flashbacks.

Did they shorten the name? HboGo has it as Only the Dead See the End of War but the film's site and Facebook page have the shorter title. Anyone know if one is an edit or what?

Having watched videos from the Arab Spring for 5 years now the increasing use of drone footage has certainly been the most interesting recent development in the way they've been filmed. Here's a new one from Jabhat al-Nusra

I just saw that shirt on the DnD pic thread. Do other countries have service folks that have that big of a boner for their job?

Are there Germans with three skulls in bandanas or French guys wearing the GIGN equivalent of a Tap-out shirt?

Sure, but the SAAF is basically War Crimes Inc. and I can't imagine they're putting random conscripts in the pilot's seat. Anyone who had any misgivings about indiscriminately bombing/gassing civilians would have defected years ago. Anyone still flying for Syria is almost certainly a well trusted, loyal officer who knows exactly what they're doing. Yeah they probably don't plan their own missions but by now every one of their pilots has to have carried out MANY purposeful attacks on civilians.

gently caress em, they all deserve worse.

I seem to remember more than a few SAAF defecting at the start of the conflict. It made the news a couple of times. Dudes left on a mission, said nope, and landed in Jordan or something.

Can't wait for manhacks to be as annoying irl as they are in half life 2.

I just saw a trailer for something on Netflix where manhacks are the main plot point. Buildings had giant wrought iron cages for people to flee into when the blades of death come.

Can't remember what it was though.

That's just a more high-tech version of those grenade drones used by ISIS in the past. They added some fins to a 40mm round and attached it to a standard civilian drone.

Weren’t the fins just a badminton shuttlecock?
