When the muzzies hit the Twin Towers did Bush say “That’s very unprofessional and unsafe.”

Remember, a Chinese pilot DID collide with an EP-3 a while back. His name really was Wong Wei.

The Chinese just urinated on the US Navy.
And Obama is dancing with delight.

Morons are trying to relive the Hainan Island incident.Maybe, and we either develop more stand-off means of doing these missions, or issue death sentences to the aircrew by not allowing them to land a stricken aircraft anywhere near Chinese territory as happened at Hainan Island. Or, in a perfect world we could shoot some Chinese down for a change!

About time for us to have a regrettable accident where we splash one of theirs who gets too close.

“Is there a way to put Sidewinders on a P-8?”
Technologically,there is NO reason that sidewinders or for that matter AMMRAM’s on a jet of that size.
I just think that they don’t arm them so that our potential enemies don’t consider them to be a threat.
I think that should change or they should have a combat air patrol of F-18’s flying where ever those planes go.

More evidence that leads me to believe that the Malaysian airliner MH 370 was shot down by Chinese jets in the S. China sea........
