    International Burn a Qu'ran Day

    There seems to be some rage in Afghanistan over the killings of those civilians by our drunk soldier. The rest of the Muslim world doesn't seem too concerned. I mean, it isn't like he killed those people AND burned their Korans - that would have been unforgivable. In shaa'Allah

    Precisely because that asshole SHOULD have gotten the firing squad. We fucked up on that one, let's not fuck this one away. New Rule: You execute civilians = you get executed. You ambush and kill your own people = you get executed. You aid the enemy = you get executed. oh wait, that's not...

    International Burn a Qu'ran Day

    This is a true tragedy in every sense of the word. We do not do this. We kill the people who do these kinds of things. In the muslim opinion, however, 1 aberrant US soldier kills 16 civilians = the US and every one of us are terrible people bent on raping, pillaging and plundering their...

    Finally watched the video. I'd total hit the neighbor chick! But, ya know, this thread should really be about our dear friend recovering. I have been drinking, yes, but I think my answer would still be 1. More tomorrow. Statesman, get well.

    I'm in this camp as well - not a huge fan of the Landwar in Asia. I don't think you can tame these people and I think Islam, as it is practiced pretty much anywhere in the middle east, is incompatible with democracy and liberty. I tried, for many years, to give them the benefit of the doubt...

    If you held this opinion 500 years ago, you'd be wrong and you'd probably be killed for burning a bible. That being said, i guess it shows these guys are living in a worldview that's 500 years + behind ours. Yes, time for them to grow up and act like adults. Fuck them.

    Cool demo. I've seen the video before, never stops being cool. That thing in the right hands can turn inside its own asshole. Wonder how it'd compare to a Raptor or Rhino head to head.

    How sporty is the Gator? I've only seen very utilitarian versions. My wife won't admit it but she really wants a RZR. She got to drive one for a few hours back in September and she turned into an ATV demon behind the wheel, it was serious Mad Max shit going down!

    Coast Guard pilot involved in crash to be charged with homicide

    I met RADM Ostebo two weeks ago. It was all I could do not to ask him about this case... That said, he struck me as a stand up guy. I spent about 1.5hrs working with him and he is intense, but I really feel he's an honest broker.

    That's good to hear. Our pilots need to focus more on the employment tactics of the plane. You have two crew members (the FEs) whose sole purpose in life is to keep the plane healthy. I trusted my senior FEs because I knew they would not pass a junior guy if he didn't meet their stringent...

    I don't really buy the flight hours excuse either. I think the trivia came from many hours of boredom really. When all we did was ASW and we were really good at it (and our targets were nowhere near as sophisticated as they are today), we had a lot of down time in remote places, standing the...

    The P-3 is also not designed to be easy for one person to fly. I think I mentioned this in another thread. The P-3 simply is not ergonomic and while an experienced pilot can make the WarPig dance quite well for what she is, at the end of the day it still isn't an "easy" plane to fly. A...
