Even though I can only read your half of the conversation, it’s pretty obvious you’re wrestling with a pig here. Most of us in this thread figured...
I understand what you mean, but for a proper equivocation General Custer would have had to present one of these scalps in front of the Astors,...
Can you imagine a point at any time in our roughly 250-year history where it would have been socially acceptable for one of our military officers...
@VAg8r1 My desires in that regard go far beyond “optimistic.” If there was a triple rainbow thing, then that would be more appropriate.
Mattis is one of the greatest military minds of our generation. We would be wise to listen to him. One of Trump’s dumber moves was to not only...
Off the top of my head, Barry Sanders. Arguable to any extent, of course, whether he was ever the greatest or still the greatest when he retired.

Gee, I wonder who you’re quoting.
I don’t think F-16s are the right move until we can give them a way to deal with the Russian IADS.
The fuel is more important than the weapons. I think India understands this. There’s somewhat of a field laboratory going on that is demonstrating...
I take your point. However, one can always use history to support any position that is already in their self-interest. The Indian government could...
I can’t say I feel bad for India. They have shown us who they are with their support of Russia.
You are not wrong to scratch your head about why certain decisions, obviously needed months ago, are just now being considered. The issue of tanks...
