Sadr can have a bullet put into his head later, when things calm down a bit.
You are.
M1
F15
Javelin
IBA
M2A3
and and and
As usual the idiots that screamed years ago about how stupid the M1 was, giving cost and listing its shortcommings are quiet now. There have been M1 hit by as many as 15 RPGs and the crew walked away. You hear NOTHING from these pundits now.
What about the F-15 and all the yelling and screaming about this overpriced piece os crap (according to the pundits). It now has a kill ratio of 80:0 (Yes that's 80 kills and never been shot down itself). This includes two (2) MIG 29s, the fighter the Russians claimed was built to counter the F-15.
Remember the movie "Pentagon Wars"? All that fighting and media attention reference the bad and overpriced stupid Bradley? They're quiet now, arn't they?
Remember the 60 minutes and other "Experts" talking about the Pariot after Gulf War 1? Silence from them too. Many Kuwaities have their life to thank to that system as it intercepted missles exceeding the maximaum allowed range heading toward Kuwait city.
The American soldier is the best equiped soldier in the WORLD. This keeps more Americans alive and makes more bad guys dead. Credit never goes to the tax payer who makes this possible. That's why I love it when there is an open house/air show. Show the people where and for what their money is spent. All they EVER hear is the one sided scandle seeking, over exaggerating, take out of context, left leaning media.
