  1. Never said I cared, in fact I said "Fuck it, its really time to go.". However, the powers that be, the white house and politicians might be more concerned with this than you and I. Maybe Karzi doesn't want us to stay (hopefully that's the case), I was simply making the case that he could be using this as leverage to force an agreement with favorable terms for him.
  2. Or he is a brilliant politician and this becoming friends with Iran is just a way to get us to agree to his terms, since the last thing we want to see is the shithole we dumped 12 years of time, money and lives into become best friends with Iran.
  3. https://www.foxnews.com/world/2013/12/08/afghanistan-iran-plan-cooperation-pact/ Fuck it, its really time to go.
  4. FIFY, there's a difference between unconventional military tactics and terrorist tactics. While the two may not always be mutually exclusive they are in fact different, which is why your analogy between GW and Mandela is faulty.
  5. Ah yes because a stable country, prosperous economy, is lesser preferred to the countries of Rwanada and Uganda. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad apartheid is gone, it was a horrible system. However, when the ANC came to power their Affirmative Action policies and the outright murder of tens of thousands of whites and confiscation of their property has in fact led to a worse South Africa. Johannesburg is now the rape and murder capital of the world. Did things need to change? Absolutely, however the process that they took while it improved some areas (minority rights), it also severely hurt others.
  6. Oldest enlisted Airman jumps into final re-enlistment after 39 years of service. https://www.pacaf.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123373364
  7. So I guess the slogan is now "If you like your doctor just pay more", and apparently "nobody promised premiums would stay the same" according to Ezekiel Emanuel the "architect of Obamacare". https://www.breitbart.com/Breitbart-TV/2013/12/08/ObamaCare-Architect-Zeke-Emanuel-If-You-Like-Your-Doctor-You-Can-Pay-More
  8. Again I don't know for sure, there may have been a squadron brief but nothing OG wide to my knowlege, I managed to get my hands on the safety report. True, until he took over visually and the API was aiming short.
  9. Not to my knowledge. As for you second question, API line set for 3.0 would be a steeper GS than the 2.5, so trying to line the API, FPV and PAPIs wouldn't work.
  10. Looks to me like no, and he reverted to front side flying.

  12. Agreed, I meant "they" as in TACC. Although on a positive note, because of these incidents our OG out here at TCM managed to get us east coast crew rests on the depositioning legs home vs. flying all the way home. So far its been pretty nice to only have a 5 hour flight home, and land sometime in the afternoon/early evening.
  13. "Signed off to high by TACC DO, have a safe flight", as mentioned before here nothing will change till they actually start using these tools.
  14. You should ask the next one you meet, I'm sure they'll tell you.
  15. Surprised? https://www.gq.com/entertainment/celebrities/201312/least-influential-people-2013#slide=11
  16. So they decided to dis-enroll him but it took them 2 years to officially kick him out? Something isn't adding up. I also like the specific part about being told he wasn't allowed to break academy rules, because I was wholly expecting the Air Force Academy to say anything else, or OSI to admit they would direct an informant to do so either.
  17. These kids were brand new sophomores, that just spent the last year having every second of their lives dictated to them. I doubt they knew about the ADC, IG or what their rights were in USAFA let alone the AF judicial system if you had walked up to them them on the Terrazzo and ask them about it, let alone in an interrogation room with an OSI agent.
  18. F-35 or F-18 Super Hornet: It’s really not that complicated https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWJeqrvoF6M
  19. Britain has reached a new low: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/10486452/Woman-has-child-taken-from-her-womb-by-social-services.html
  20. "North Korea claimed Saturday that an elderly U.S. war veteran detained for more than a month has apologized for "hostile acts" against the state during a recent trip and alleged crimes against the country during the Korean War." https://www.foxnews.com/world/2013/11/30/north-korea-says-detained-american-committed-hostile-acts-against-country/?intcmp=latestnews
  21. If I'm reading the post correctly, 59% of the 450+ pilots in that FY actually did separate.
  22. I think the terminology used was wrong but the larger point which was by saying "oh look 62% of the pilots took the bonus, nothing to see here everything is good" is as we all know false. This shows basing the health of the pilot manning on the percentage of takers is a bad metric. It's, as is being discussed in the Sequestration thread, manipulating data and playing word games to make things look all fine and dandy, the new bonus is working and now they don't have to address actual problems. It doesn't matter if there were 211 eligible or 50; it would have been spun the same way and ignored the other large number of people that were ineligible that were lost.
  23. https://thecollegefix.mobify.me/post/15414/ PB&J is now racist and "white privilege" strikes again.
