Looking at your posting history

http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/by:fennie/index?tab=comments;brevity=full;options=no-change

You just post and run similar stores. This board is for discussing issues not spamming them and leaving.

And EVERYONE IN THE WORLD needed to know about these jets? Our military is stationed around the world in various locations with a variety of weapons. Do we really need to advise everyone of their whereabouts?

If they can steal 10,000 AR15`s

they can hit an airbase.

A few manpads or Javelins that our own government supplied to Syria that somehow got redistributed to Iran and those birds are toast.

Not a concern. Stingers will not lock onto an American aircraft broadcasting an IFF beacon. Javelins are not ground-to-air missiles, they're ground-to-ground.

Ah, what with all the scandals Obama is facing here at home, what a better time to launch a “wag the dog” campaign in Iran.

Aircraft on runway; ground to ground.

“Stingers will not lock onto an American aircraft broadcasting an IFF beacon.”

Please explain.

Stingers track heat and an IFF is an electronic ID, and IFF codes rotate, and Mode I, II, III, IV are all rotated, therefore the combinations are countless and in the case of Mode IV, encrypted.

They were there temporarily on a layover, over a year ago. Not exactly giving away state secrets here.

We are only their “friends” when we do their bidding, Bert. The rest of the time we are infidels who don’t belong on Arab land.

RE :”As far as I am concerned we are still at war”

Sept 2001 was long ago, are we still in the Cold war with USSR ‘as far as you are concerned’ ???

How about WWII??, those SS Werewolves might still be plotting.

OK, Eric, your national security argument doesnt fly here either:

“Sometimes we forget we are still at war.”

From 1984: “We’ve always been at war with Eastasia”.

I don’t like this notion that “we at still at war” for so many reasons. We are not at war with anyone. There is no one to conquer. There is no one attacking our country we did not let in and we still are letting them in.

Eric disagrees with you citing national security

We must submit to martial law and the government watching EVERYTHING we do and say, 'for national security'

War without end, what country is next?
