The question I'm beginning to ponder: Is a China instigated war scarier with Xi at the helm, or whomever comes after him? Imagine a world in a year or so where Xi is no longer in power, and China still decides to go to war... Echos of Russia turning into the USSR, or possibly France's revolution turning into a Napoleon led war machine...

It seriously feels like about every 18-24 months or so over the past decade DC spouts off with "UFOs are real, shiny object, look over here!"

Please. We Need To Move This Thread Along

This one. Zero stars. Do not recommend. IYKYK Definitely not the child. You're a little weird bro.

...like -135 level genius? ...or actual genius? Risk aversion and that community seem...well...tight with each other. Not seeing how a -135 guy in a think tank = good strategic analysis of displacement of ground forces. Not saying it can't happen, but the correlation there seems odd. JTT is really intelligent too, and I would not have followed him into combat... Just sayin'.

Big difference, he quite literally put his own skin on the line. I say let him keep it.

Based on Bush, Obama, Trump and Biden? 20 years or so.

Seriously. Can't believe Maduro thought he'd make it out unscathed.

No one told the C-130 community that. That RTM pie gets bigger and bigger every time someone invents a new strap-on tech for crews to play with until they find a use for it.

I'm sure most of the parts are the same. Most of the body panels are gray, so I'm sure they're interchangeable. Say, how do you think the A-10 will do with afterburning motors?

Getting through the strait IS a short trip...

Nope. That image is ridiculous. I really hope that's a parady of some sort. If not, his narcissism has hit a new high (or low...). There's has to be a backstory to that absurdity. That looks like a painting from a boomer grandmother about her kid.

Seriously. We need that "what the captain means" guy to be the press secretary for Trump! Love the fact that "The Captain" was actually a Colonel. Sidebar checklist complete. Back to the irrational ranting that will change nothing and only inflame the emotional state of the ranters.

You do realize your inane circular logic and inability to employ critical thinking concerning ideas you don't like is one of the primary reasons this thread is the way is, right? Like a boomer complaining about how much the generation they raised and crafted sucks. The acoustics in your head must be breathtaking. Then again, this is the Iran Thread. None of this makes sense.
