Black flame is totally doable BUT you don’t screw with chemical rockets. There’s a very delicate balance of stuff in there that burns at just the right rate providing just the right amount of thrust. Mess with that nothing good happens.

I'm with you. I've been arguing with some well meaning twit here who thinks we've just got to keep forking over billions to that little Ukrainian weasel because ... well because.. he's so sooooo dreamy and he's Christ Come Again and , and , well Putin is just so mean! Pffft. Amazing isn't it? Six months ago 9 out of 10 Americans had never heard of Ukraine and couldn't have found the place on a map as big as a barn door and know it's the most important place on Earth.

So who is operation these sophisticated weapons systems?

Did we just drop them off to some Uke and say ‘’Have at it pal’’.

“Spare me Vietnam and Korea talk.”

Sorry, but by your standard, we have already been at war with Russia since WW2. You don’t get to set that standard and then say effectively “don’t mention the obvious absurdity of my standard”.

Sure, but you can’t stop everyone else from noticing your absurdity and calling you out on it, any more than the trannies can force me to use their “preferred pronouns”.

That is your opinion and not one I, and others, agree with.
Enjoy your Friday.

“Uniformed Americans” vs American volunteers.

Numerous Americans and foreigners have volunteered to fight the invaders.

What a stupid response. Do you stay stuck, light a deer in headlights, when making a decision, because you don’t know everything? I don’t have to know EVERYTHING to be able to come to conclusions. If you need that level of certainty, you are lost. Like with covid, I knew the jabs were horrible without getting briefing by the head of Phizer, Moderna, the FDA, etc.

I sure hope we trust and can verify the operators of this system. If for whatever reason, accidental or purposeful, one of those is launched on a trajectory towards Moscow, this may escalate.

I wonder if they are using unguided or GPS rockets? That would make a big difference.

Germans lost both wars.

Milli Vanilli wasn't Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Trans in WWI or WWII:

I know right? Just like Roosevelt helping England against the Germans! What a goof. Next thing you know we will be stopping WW3! Is there no end of good over evil, right over wrong, life over murder etc. etc.?

My AFSC was very small and only had 2 females and 2 blacks.
We were allowed to be normal.
My building had one black and zero females.
After two years, we were getting the second female.
We all got a talking to about behaviors before her arrival.
She wound up banging her NCOIC…
