The Gulf War and Korean War - further back the wars with Spain and Mexico. Arguably, the US' greatest military achievement is having such total dominance that it seldom needs to fight at all.

So, besides those four, who is the "average Arab"? Lebanon? Jordan? Tunisia? Kuwait? What all Arab forces have in common are the factors I listed. Shiny toys will not change what are fundamentally cultural problems - that is my point here. Ahaha. Is that what they tell you? Even al-Jazeera...

Quantify those claims please. 1) Give me an example of sheer experience being more significant in kill ratios than talent + training + gear 2) Explain how Egypt's military is any different than that of Syria, Baathist Iraq, or really any third-world nation: a) quantity over quality b)...

It only takes a few months to get fully rated in a new aircraft, something that happens all the time. Past that, it comes down to the quality of the human material and how well they're trained. The marginal benefit from additional years of experience with a given aircraft is beyond marginal...

This is a case of two kinds of crazy running headfirst into each other. Let me sort it out for both of you. TMA is parroting an Islamic superstition that the Ashkenazi Jews are "the tribe of Gog and Magog", and as such are agents of supreme cosmic evil. "Gog and Magog" originated from texts...

Arabic is not related to the Romance languages, and Romans and Jews were building thermae and mikvehs for thousands of years before the Arabs stole Byzantine/Persian technology. None of which has anything to do with the topic, but suffice to say, you're obviously you're not willing to look at...

Yes...that's exactly what I'm saying... it's what Israel does. They have the blueprints for the IAI Lavi, which is a better aircraft anyway, but in practice it's cheaper and easier to just use the F-16. They equip these planes with their own missiles. Any plane is only ever a weapons platform...

Same difference compared to what he said. We have a saying in the US: "Shit or get off the can."

When? You mean back when it was murdering Persian women and children, before they actually had to fight the men of the Iranian and American armies and got put to flight like chickens? Arab armies don't "do" serious training. I know people who have tried to train Iraqis. They don't show up for...

I understood what you said. I associated your ideas with Gandhi because he was their most nearly credible representative. Gaddafi was a dictator. Nothing more, nothing less. Benevolent despotism is a primitive idea that appeals to primitive minds. Direct democracy means no democracy...

There is absolutely nobody who feels this way about Egypt

What's your basis for claiming that Iraq was more socialist than Israel, Scandinavia or the EU? Merely because it was poorer and more autocratic? What about Japan, South Korea, Turkey and India? See, that's the trick. I don't claim US foreign policy is anything but driven by wealthy...

It's really, really funny how you don't see the contradiction between these two paragraphs. You won't get it, so I will spell it out for you. Gandhi's vision of an anarchic social democracy was a non-starter because the system isn't viable. Traditional societies are in practice always 1...

None of those groups came to Europe because of violence they themselves instigated and brought it with them when they arrived. You don't see Chinese/Japanese/Hindu/Buddhist/Jewish mobs threatening Europeans or their institutions or demanding handouts. For that matter, none of those groups...

Rampant fraud and illegal forms of pornography

...what do they plan on doing when the asteroid's orbit decays?

lol American women in business, promote them until they can be as useless as they are Every piece of American military equipment has an extremely long toothing. Same with the M16/M4 family, M1 tank, F15/F22, etc...

I'm sure Mossad / American NSA hackers are smiling at this

The reason for the situation Ceylal describes is the mentality behind MICA's remark. No one owes these non-victims anything. As soon as the Islamic world accepts that (which will *never* happen), political progress is possible.

So you're saying Pakistan produced a jet because they couldn't produce the electronics for a missile system? The real hilarity is the reason Egypt bought those jets in the first place was because Israeli victories were blamed on "superior" American weapons during the wars ^_^...
