Slow and steady, superiority followed by supremacy and SF marking the Scud sites.

Since Daschlo is an ex air force Intelligence officer, I believe I hear orders for his reactivation being type up. They need his expertise to help ID Targets.

Neat solution, everything he finds out is classified and he would be covered by the UCMJ.

Possibly we need to send him over to Iraq for more information. No need to alter our schedule, he just requests more information. Let him go get the information.

I think he wanted to be a pilot until he found out you can't put booster chairs in jets.

I dunno. This seems like something that was fairly routine thing, yet blown up in the rather hysterical British Press.

We attack their radar sites and air defenses all the time. When they lock onto our planes, which violates the no-fly zone thing, their installations get attacked.

They'll likely be fixed in a few days.

I am a patient man.

Must I at length the sword of justice draw?
Oh curst effects of necessary law!
How ill my fear they by my mercy scan,
Beware the fury of a patient man.

I don't think they should join. I think they should remain apart.

More airworthy that way.

God bless our British allies, and Tony Blair, true friends of America (unlike some Euro you know whats, especially in Berlin).

I think I could throw a rock, blindfolded, with better accuracy.

"Iraq had made 130 attempts to shoot down coalition aircraft this year."

Not with 100 planes.

If this is true our 'leaders' are violating the Constitution, yet somehow I'm not surprised.

Great idea! Could Daschole be assigned to monitor an expected Iraqi counter attack from central Antartica? Or maybe from the surface of the moon?
