QuoteTop administration source says Obama instructed Defense Secretary to work with Defense Minister Barak, to give all due consideration to the request for purchasing GBU-28 bombs, advanced refueling aircraft

Might as well make a lucrative contract on them with China as well before the jews do it.

"Defense Secretary"? No name? Is he a superhero or something?
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

I was thinking of creating one of these.  Tamas beat me to it. :(  I think we are getting close.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

So are we waiting for the Iran war Megathread or is this the Megathread for the Iran war?
PDH!

I so wanted a "Countdown to the Iran Megawar thread."

That'll be in the Back Room.

This is the Megathread for this topic until the actual war starts. It will be necessary to divide them, as in a few days this thread will be full of civil war references, and Hansie-Raz political mudslinging.

BTW, I think Iran is now attempting to pull a North Korea, as right now they appear to be lenient and letting observers in. And the world might just  let them do it - delay and bullshit until it is done and they become untouchable

You know what is the problem with a plane like the B-2?

It is so awesome and amazing that you can't actually risk using it for a mission like this, which it would be freaking perfect for...

Can you imagine if one was lost over Iran?

Iran's air defense radars would be so jammed in so many ways for a B2 sortie, they wouldn't even be able to use the coffee maker in the break room.
