Well i don’t think 100 war planes would do anything. But they say will help with humanitarian missions. If your on the higher mountains you can see both coast. Just for perspective of size.

Personally i’m against this action. but the drug smuggling via that country is a serious problem.

As a land owner their i hope my land is used as a base and i get payed a good rent. On the other hand it would destroy my tree harvesting farm.

Just a shot in the dark :

A little while ago I caught a little snip on Fox,,,

They showed a mini-sub that was built in the jungle

in that general area,,,(used to haul dope),,,

Also that fleet has 200 choppers/etc. ,,,

This could be a search and destroy mission on the druggies.

The Marines could land at a choke-point and assault en-mass.
