"Your right but this is obviously deployed for aircraft - the cab sticks up to high to get the horizon"

You are a trolling twit. The gun can and does travers over the flank and rear of the truck where it can depress lower. DON'T TELL ME THAT THIS IS A PURELY DEFENSIVE PIECE OF ORDNANCE."

Have we been introduced?

You must have me confused with someone else.

I have a good friend that was regular army and attached to a Marine unit in Viet Nam. He had one of two Pershings fitted with twin anti aircraft for anti-personnel use. The referenced photo is not.

The article Does reference photos of Katyushas and that is what they should have printed. This is what is going 10 and 20 clicks into Israel - not 35mm shells.

You see, here it is in black and white. You can't trust these people, and in my eyes that means you can't trust muslims in general. They lie, cheat, steal and are the worst scum to ever populate the earth.

I'm telling you now, every single muslim needs to be rounded up and shipped back to the middle east before our country ends up Lebanon.

Yeah but for some reason "view source" no longer works on my computer...any suggestions?
What browser are you using?

IE with Windows XP but I think it began when I made the mistake of downloading all the "SP" stuff.

I had the same problem with the Opera browser which I fixed last night.

On the IE browser, go to "Tools" at the top, choose "Internet Options". When the little box pops up, select the "Programs" tab. There should be a drop down box next to the HTML Editor. Try selecting another application as your HTML editor...either Notepad or Wordpad. See if that works.

Regardless of the type of weaponry, where are their uniforms? Why is the press not telling us how many Hezzies have been killed? Why are just women and children dying? Maybe the Hezzies are losing? Using your own families to protect your butt from fire should be grounds for death by firing squad, preferably IDF.

There have been numerous reports that Hizbollah is using Christian neighborhoods as launch sites and storage areas. Christians Fleeing Lebanon Denounce Hezbollah

HEZBOLLAH PENETRATES CHRISTIAN AREAS IN LEBANON

These photos are kind of weak for what the article implies. Most of them aren't wearing civilian clothing and isn't it more likely that they are in the town to defend it in case of ground attack? Im not wanting to defend them but this media article is extrapolating stuff from the photos that just isn't there.

' not 35mm shells.'

There wouldn't be 35mm at any rate, that is a ZU-23-2 which fires 23mm shells. It is an AA weapon, but would be of little use in that mission in a built up area as shown. It is, as others have pointed out a very effective AP weapon. The 'civvie-clad' hezbolonies onboard are the story as they blend with the real civvies (if they can be found). Israel should continue to prosecute this war as they see fit, not likely anyone will hate them the less for backing off.

"No, a Muzzie apologist is easy to spot."

Are you the big saber rattler who wants to use AA for ground troops?

BWAHAHAHA - you better check some of my posts, friend.

I'm on record for nuking Syria and Iran and dumping strategic reserves to put Russia and Venezuela out of business for good measure.

Job No.1 for patriots is destroying Enemy No. 1. - LIBERAL MEDIA.

Just out of curiosity, who gets to decide what is "liberal media"?

"There wouldn't be 35mm at any rate, that is a ZU-23-2 which fires 23mm shells"

My point was misinformation from the media that can be used in perverse ways.

Do you know what Stalin did to fool everyone while he starved 10 million? He set up a stooge to publish photos of starvation - but from a famine 12 years prior.

Then after people were in an uproar, he had the stooge outed with the "forged but true" photos and this simple straw man maneuver "convinced" everyone that there was "no genocide".

It is obvious that thousands of Katyushas are being fired from residential areas but the "revelation" 2 weeks from now that this photo aint them can be very dangerous.

Thanks for the clarification - I am not an expert on every filthy piece of Russian weaponry being dumped throughout the world.
