They’ve already “endangered the ship twice. Shoot the ahos down. They are our enemy. Not our friends. Madzero will call his 2 million rejects back from the U.S. to march in his “militia” parades.

[Az Joe]

Winning!

[lightman]

Time for more “red vapor”.

[wjcsux]

Hey Maduro, FAFO!

[Surrounded_too]

Unless the General was Chief of Joint, PDJT shoulda been directing his comments

to an Admiral.

Shoulda shot them down the first time.

Venezuelan guy is a wannabe Rocket man.

[cpdiii]

Inform Venezuela if an attack aircraft gets withing x miles it is to be considered a threat and will be destroyed.

I trust President Trump completely- To do what he has said he will do.

[waterhill]

5 F-16s.....40+ years old...yeah

[HighSierra5]

Venezuela is an allie of Russia,Cuba, Iran, China and probably every other dicktater in the world. So you can’t believe anything they say. I wonder if Sean Pennhead will go and fight for Manuro.

[Texas resident]

President Trump is playing this situation smartly.
Let the Venezuelan AF have their fun with a couple of passes.
Next time, give them warning and when they buzz our ships again, smoke them. No quarter.

[FlingWingFlyer]

We can help them save jet fuel if we shoot them while they’re still on the ground in whatever country they hide them in.

[rellic]

America has the best and most formidable
navy in the world.
My Tax dollars paid for it!
Were it not for Democrats and their prevarications,
nobody would mess with it.
I’m not sure about our army.
America, is actually isolated by two oceans
as compared to what Asian and European countries have to deal with.
If we have to use our air force,
for self defense, the world as
we knew it would end.

[baclava]

And then what?

Total War for Oil?

I thought we were invading Greenland.

[dadgum]

GOOD!!!

Draw the line. Make it obvious and undeniable.

Cross that line? DIE!!!

[Governor Dinwiddie]

The captain should be court-martialed for allowing the hostiles to fly over in the first place.
I guess that morning he was having a hard time getting his dress zipped.

[lightman]

Alberta = State #51
Greenland = State #52
Venezuala = Territory

[where's_the_Outrage?]

Reminds me of Qaddafi’s Line of Death

[Lurker]

Don’t **** with our boats.

It won’t end well for you.

[ComputerGuy]

Ooh, brinkmanship. I love it.
