Hope there's a few rungs left on the escalation ladder to nukes, but the Indians did us a solid by removing this shitbag from the earth. Abdul Rauf Azhar killed American reporter Daniel Pearl, and justice has finally been served...wish we had done it, but I'll take it.

My Opinion on this subject is the Democrats ultimate goal of opening the border was to flood the country with millions of new and perpetual DEMOCRAT VOTERS. Period. They saw what happened in the 2016 presidential election , when Trump won by a slim margin and wanted to insure that would never happen again! So, as others have said, they had no issue allowing people to illegally enter the country, but suddenly are all about following legal proceedings for each and every Illegal alien in order to be deported! Again, the courts can’t handle this flood of cases, so these illegally imported Democrat voters will be in our country for years to come, able to do whatever they please, but more importantly, They will be around to VOTE, and WHO DO YOU THINK THEY WILL VOTE FOR? Fast forward to 1:11:38

Instead of playing a game of one-upmanship, I went back and re-read all your posts to make sure I didn't misconstruct anything. Some points have merit...your original question was "what's different this time?" is valid for any operation, and in this one, to paraphrase other posts, it's difficult to bomb someone to the stone age when they're already there. However, let me ask what you would do if you were the ultimate decider, to stop the Houthis from sending TBMs & OWA drones into an ally's territory, and were attacking innocent ships of all nations traveling through the BAM? There are three basic options: do nothing, full-scale nuclear war, or something in between. An oppositional attitude can be useful in the planning process...too many yes-men and there's no critical thought developing the plan. You're obviously not a fan of the current COA, so what would you do differently? I'm truly interested.

lol and now we "negotiate" a cease fire between the US and the Houthis that doesn't include Israel. YGBSM https://allisrael.com/houthi-rebels-clarify-that-ceasefire-with-u-s-does-not-include-israel-will-continue-to-act-in-support-of-gaza you guys are right, this isn't rocket surgery. It's just complete stupidity. We spent 1 billion https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/trump-operation-houthis-cost-1-billion-rcna205333 striking the houthis, didn't dislodge them in any meaningful way, dumped 3 super hornets into the red sea, pulled back with our tail between our legs, and Israeli ships are still going to be shot at. Maybe a 'real operator' can explain it to me but this looks almost as successful as our Afghanistan withdrawal

Fuck Pakistan and its terrorist sharia state. India all the way. Time for Trump to solidify India as the new Ally in the region, something we should have done decades ago.

Roger that, the PAF is saying it was J-10s shooting PL-15s that got the kill Chengdu stock up 20% on the news of it All of these different conflicts are riffing a bit historically to the Spanish Civil War in the 30s. Surprised / Not surprised it was a Rafale and not a 29 or 30, Rafale is their most capable so it probably went in first on night 1 but it’s got SPECTRA and the French are really good at EW, hopefully something will make it to open source to understand This will light a fire under them to get 5th gen Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here's a story relayed to me:. Iranians were sent to the US for pilot training and wore red helmets for identification purposes. One day, a couple instructors grab a couple red helmets and saddle up in a T-38. They launch and return to the T-38 pattern using an Iranian-ish accent. On the first touch and go, the IP in the front seat ducks down so the RSU sees an Iranian student solo in the back seat. The RSU freaks out and queries the "solo" who responds " I will fix.". On the next pass, the IP in the back seat ducks down so the red helmet is now in the front seat. Not sure that practical joke would be appreciated today. BTW, this was at Columbus pre-Ayatollah.
