And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
...while sending astronauts to the moon. If you don't like that, you're a pessimistic, unpatriotic fool. Go find another country to complain about. Try the UK, where they'll toss you in prison for hurtful words. Just sayin...
You’re saying I should be excited about something we already supposedly did almost 60 years ago?? Unpatriotic?? You need to sniff what you’re shoveling.. You clearly have no ability to think critically.
I watched it unfold - and as I watched it, I still couldn't believe it was happening. To me, born in early '41, this was the worst moment in U.S. history in my lifetime - worse even than the Afghanistan boondoggle.
Agreed. There is always wisdom in adhering to the 48 Hour Rule, and especially here. There will be an After Action Report written eventually, but I'm willing to wait until the unfolding actions are complete and to have some, if not most of the important details withheld from public view.
They ran 35 miles? Lots of things fit into a Herc including Humvees. I imagine you could put a small fleet of Polaris or John Deere side-by-sides in one. Al_in_Ottawa
You do know we destroyed those aircraft ourselves, right? That fact has been widely reported and accepted. They got 'stuck' so we destroyed them rather than let them fall into enemy hands. Nice try though.
Calm down, people. Mattis and Milley and Kelly are gone. Along with the demotions of the DEI top military brass. Maybe the new leadership can do this. At least there's no more military officer men wearing pantyhose.
Schwarzkolf once said that the great ones from the Academies are already here, just waiting for their chance.
The "Official Story" almost sounds like a second rate B Action Hero moovie script. Just like the "Man on the moon" story from 60 years past - the long awaited re-make now rolling on screen. The fake "Covid 19" story proves that Mass Delusion Psychosis is real and is at actual pandemic proportions now among the Trumpenstein pedo fan club members and die hard Patriot zealot fools.. USA!! USA!! Extreme Religious dogma really destroys discernment. Mass hypnosis and programming - now perfected.
And bin Laden being killed in Abaddabad; still waiting on footage from that. (If you want to) You can find footage of Saddam Hussein and Khaddafi having their mortal coil shuffled off of them, but you have to trust the (Obama) government 'we got 'em!" Does your trust get switched on and off depending on which party is empowered?
Obama after a drone strike killed civilians in Afghanistan: "In situations of war, you know, we have to take responsibility when we're not acting appropriately," "Based on what I've seen, that was done by Iran," Trump stated on March 7, 2026, regarding the school strike. On March 9, 2026, Trump suggested other nations use Tomahawks, noting, "Well, I haven't seen it, and I will say that the Tomahawk, which is one of the most powerful weapons around is … sold and used by other countries. You know that. And whether it's Iran, (which) also has some Tomahawks. They wish they had more. But whether it's Iran or somebody else, the fact that a Tomahawk — a Tomahawk is very generic. It's sold to other countries. But that's being investigated right now."
Character matters. We all make mistakes. The difference is how one person reacts in light of mistakes made
Rubbish. The pilot story was just that: a story. The real mission was to land those big planes and put boots on the ground to grab the uranium. Mission failed, with the loss of half a billion dollars worth or aircraft. Joke city. Roll on the mid-terms.
When they make the movie make sure to include that these pilots were sent there by a mad man without a plan or strategy. This war is making abundantly clear the difference between tactics and strategy. We have tactics. Our tactic is to hit any target Hegseth can point a finger at. The Iranians have a strategy. Their strategy is to hunker down, shut down the straight of Hormuz, make it VERY painful for everyone and wait until we get tired/midterm elections.
Pete should surely get some credit. What they did was unfathomable for almost any other country and for 1 man they absolutely did everything imaginable to save him. No man left behind took on a whole different meaning
Just because you do a backflip when you’re dying of cancer doesn’t mean your gymnastics career isn’t over… just sayin.

DeleteNothing special.
ReplyDeleteThe democrats had a similar heroic operation back in 2000 giving six-year old Elián González back to Cuba.
I watched it unfold - and as I watched it, I still couldn't believe it was happening.
DeleteTo me, born in early '41, this was the worst moment in U.S. history in my lifetime - worse even than the Afghanistan boondoggle.
Let's wait for the TRUE STORY to come out first.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. There is always wisdom in adhering to the 48 Hour Rule, and especially here. There will be an After Action Report written eventually, but I'm willing to wait until the unfolding actions are complete and to have some, if not most of the important details withheld from public view.

Come on. Don't be so pessimistic. These are the latest bits of news. You sound like you are hoping for bad news. If so, you must be a Democrat.
DeleteNot a Democrat...just someone who knows that governments lie, and truth is the first casualty of war.
DeleteAt least he is back safe!
ReplyDeleteYes! Heroic action or lucky blunder the airman is back in friendly hands.

Yeah, my first thought when I heard C130s were landed.
DeleteThings are not what they seem, indeed wait for the real story comes out, if at all:

0bama is still the only US president to violate the War Powers Act.

Independent verifiable video or it didn't happen.
ReplyDeleteAlmost everything put out by any form of media is a lie now.
All of it is Fog of War: c130's shot down based on propeller damage: https://nitter.poast.org/Megatron_ron/status/2040792636865515928#m

ReplyDeleteAnd listening to people go on and on like there's a bit of daylight between any of them there's a goddamn joke
ReplyDeleteHey! Remember when Jimmy Carter tried to run a rescue raid for the Iranian Embassy hostages?
ReplyDeleteGood times...
It is now officially tradition that any rescue effort in Iran leave at least one smoldering Airframe.
DeleteOne? I love an optimist.
DeleteFeels like "Ghost of Kiev" level propaganda.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how many children those pilots murdered on behalf of the child rapist in the White House?
ReplyDeleteNot nearly enough.
DeleteFunny none of you folks use this phrasing when talking about those weddings and schools Obama & Biden drone-struck.

ReplyDeleteSaving Private Ryan seemed more reasonable than all this. But I will always choose the country I live in to sort it out.
