There are some terribly fucked up people. So mentioning a child killed on accident spawned murderous, emotional rampages? I do not understand how the people that left these comments feel vindicated after saying that. What bothers me even more is how these people have no idea what happens in these other countries. They do not understand that the people targeted by pilots and drones do far worse things to innocent people, way more often. Accidents happen, especially if strikes are needed in more densely populated areas. There are consequences to everything people do, sometimes at the risk of others. In this case, the accepted risks outweigh the alternative. Maybe the author of this article should write one about the atrocities committed by the Taliban and Al Qaeda complete with pictures of the aftermath.

No shit. "This is how cowards do war"? WTF should we do? Go have a sword duel Ninja Gaiden style?

Helping to keep this thread derailed (and for the Viper drivers out there - if you can't take a poking (STS) by Rainman, you need to go find your sense of humor. This stuff is funny!) Lean, Mean, Flameout Machine. I SHALL RETURN...Well, I might. Mach Nix. The F-16. Takes a licking, and takes a licking. Have you hugged your chute today? This Vehicle Makes Frequent Stops. I came. I saw. I bingo'd. No deposit, no return. We've spent so much money on this thing that we can't afford to admit we were wrong. A triumph of style over substance. The best damn second place fighter in the world. Instead of a CAS mod, we're going to install a roll bar. And now with this LANTIRN thing and our new Block 40's, we can hit the ground at NIGHT! We cover the target like a thong bikini. And BINGO is my Name-O. We crash more airplanes before 9-o'clock than most people crash all day. Last in the talent show, but first in the swimsuit competition. Lose a few, lose a few. Feet and knees together, eyes on the horizon... Designated no-hitter. Everything you wanted in a fighter and less. Optimist: F-16 pilot who's worried about dying from cancer. Hey, today we didn't lose a single jet. This is going to hurt me more than it's going to hurt you. User friendly... if you've got three hands. If we have a war with BDUs, we've got 'em beat. Careful badguys...I'm carrying BOTH bombs today. I'm talkin' wall-to-wall MK-82's Pal. If I carried more weapons, and if I had enough gas, and if I could actually hit the target, and if I had some more REALLY expensive electrons so I could find you, and if my motor didn't quit, and if My wings didn't crack, Boy, I'd really teach you a lesson!

Stop it! There are no whiners! We are winners...you're all winners. You're the best of the best, and dont you forget it! There is no greater pleasure than living in middle of nowhere New Mexico, 'flying' a tip of the spear drones (pardon my common parlance), and getting up close and personal in warfare, then going to the O'Club afterwards and tell war stories while talking with my hands...I mean fingers. No need to point at watches here while telling stories...we just simulate typing on the bar! Yes...we are winners. We kicked the F-22s out because WE are the future of warfare!! WE run this Air Force....along with finance! Be us...or envy us! (Hmmm....that should be our motto...I wonder how to say that in Latin! I'll just ask my Latin American neighbor...I am in New Mexico after all)
