Should the SEALS just throw themselves under the bus before the zer0 does?

BOMB THEIR EMBASSY - like in 1999....

[Slump Tester]

I don't understand why that was left behind, but then we really don't know if they were taking fire from outside the wall or not. Seems like that should have been easy enough to destroy.

Meanwhile, we'll keep giving those Pak rats foriegn aid.

Obama could get the copter back if he really leaned on Pakistan, the way Bush leaned on Pakistan after 9/11.

But of course he won’t.

a) Because he’s a feeble wimp.

b) Because he wants China to get the technology.

China probaly had the plans before the first prototype was built. Affirmative action and all ya know.

An earlier piece of news said it was a Chinook. ...didn’t say Black Hawk. As for the Chinese, our universities and corporations already favored them over our own as university engineering students long ago, so game over. Prepare to rebuild instead of trying to undo what has already been done.

[ought-six]

China hasn’t come up with anything new in 1,000 years. Since then it has practiced reverse engineering with a passion.

[Don Corleone]

Shades of the Jimmy Carter fiasco.

The Chinese simply want to check up on one of their many investments in the USA. Can’t blame them one bit - they probably held title to the chopper since we’re paying for it over time with China holding the loan. And THIS, boys and girls, is why we shouldn’t be indebted to folks that don’t like us very much.
