Coming from someone who stated Jon Huntsman was the most electable candidate and claimed Al Gore would have been a good President, I'm sure your knowledge of international politics exceeds mine based on sheer stupidity.

That has nothing to do with knowledge of politics, those two points are a matter of opinion and personal politics.

As I stated before, maybe you should stick to things you're good at. Fish and chips, making Aston Martin cars, providing wives for the night to Americans stationed at Lakenheath, Mildenhall and the Tri Base area...

Things like that.

I'm glad your troops find our women attractive, you are in a minority (one that I'm not even included in), I prefer to travel to the med or eastern Asian regions to find my women, it's easier and they require less work. Aston Martins are very nice! Fish and chips can be hit and miss, not something I eat very often.

You forgot red telephone boxes, the Queen, tea and crumpets, the BBC, driving on the left, our perceived bad dental hygiene, how small our island is, that the French are better than us because they are a republic and speak French, steak and kidney pie, David Beckham, Colin Firth (or any other perceived ultra-ponce Brit actor) and Big Ben. Just some suggestions for future ribbing/banter.

It doesn't. And that's a fact the USAF has been hiding ever since the platform entered service. The questions were asked during Odyssey Dawn of why the F-22 wasn't taking part and they answered with "mumble, mumble, lack of datalink compatibility with NATO, mumble, mumble."

And apparently that was a planned upgrade since the aircraft leaving the factory didn't have it installed as a cost cutting measure. It's sad when you have to search for a mission for a $150 million aircraft. At least the F-15 and F-16 evolved over time. I just don't see that happening with the F-22.

Could you say though that the F-22 is a "necessary evil" of sorts? What I mean is, if we don't design and utilize a plane like that then the Russians, Chinese, or whoever will. Well, maybe not the Chinese since they only seem capable of stealing our technology to make their ****, but you get my point.

Maybe it's just because I love the look of the F-22 so much I think it's worth the money alone for its aesthetics, but I think it's a necessary aircraft regardless of its service record.

Just my uninformed two cents.

Not surprised to hear that you find it hard to get girls in the area in which you actually live.

Maybe if you stopped talking out of your ass and supporting policies that will either lead to massive civilian casualties or the committing of troops, troops that exclude you and your intricate knowledge of all things military, to fight your battles for you, then maybe a woman who was actually not desperate to escape some ****ty socio-economic condition in which she was born into would let you **** her once in a while.

I don't find it hard at all. I prefer Latina and Asian women, we are all different bro!

I'm pretty sure you may have broken some sort of rule with the second half of the post but whatever you always seem angry. Maybe you need to worry about your own sex life and your anger issues may subside.

FYI I resent the money part of your posting 'fixing', I have never been with a prostitute and never would.

Not in the least you ignorant ****. The lethal blast radius of the tomahawk is damn near 200 feet, which means that in using it you are committed to killing everything over almost an entire ****ing acre.

As for their exposed convoys, those pictures represent a fraction of the Isis members, as plenty have stayed behind to hold down Mosul, Bayji, and Tikrit. So, the first strike would not debilitate Isis. After the first strike, Isis would move much more furtively.

Jeez, TRUT. You've acquired a mean streak here lately, bud. Are you the same guy I once argued with concerning whether or not it was appropriate to knock the **** out of someone who personally affronted you to your face, me being in favor and you being against?

Yep, a fighter only aircraft at that cost makes little sense. We could throw up some 15's or 18's with tanker and jammer escorts and almost be just as effective. And with the focus on UAVs right now, its only a matter of time before they develop into air-to-air fighters.

Outside of a conflict with maybe China or Russia, and even then in limited circumstances, I'm not sure where the 22 fits in our current force structure.

I don't mind him disagreeing with me but he goes about it in a very rude way.

It is inappropriate to resort to physical force over mere words. However, I've never said it's not appropriate to call an ignorant **** and ignorant ****.

You need a tissue? You are the ******* who speaks as if he has no problem with killing innocent civilians with cruise missiles of all things, yet, boo-hoo at some rude remarks. It's clear that not only are you not a real, regular ****ing soldier, but not combat arms either, you split-tailed, jingo coward.

It's not going to sound right, but I'll say it this way. The F-22 is a classic example of it's better to have and not need than need and not have.

I'm not going to resort to calling you names. Just to say that I have never said I have no problem with killing innocent civilians. I simply stated I thought we should use Tomahawk missiles on convoys. You infer the rest in your anger-filled mind.

Thank god we never had to fight the war the F-22 was designed for.

You forgot red telephone boxes, the Queen, tea and crumpets, the BBC, driving on the left, our perceived bad dental hygiene, how small our island is, that the French are better than us because they are a republic and speak French, steak and kidney pie, David Beckham, Colin Firth (or any other perceived ultra-ponce Brit actor) and Big Ben. Just some suggestions for future ribbing/banter.

And you forgot Gordon Ramsey. Who is Scottish, so I'm not sure that disqualifies him from a technical standpoint.

I tend to be partial to Eastern European women myself. Although American women are probably the best in terms of attraction (because they encompass every known race and ethnicity on Earth), if I have to choose one specific origin, then I go with Eastern European. Cute as hell and tits the size of a house. And this is really saying something considering the fact that I'm actually an ass man.

That's interesting. I've never heard that, but anything is possible I guess. The F-117 started development in the 70's, so there's no telling what they could be working on behind closed doors.

Right. Not a whole lot of new technology has been released since then.

If you think of the cost, overall lack of need for the F-35, and the limited upgrade for cost, not to mention all the problems, it actually starts to make sense.

At least hopeful reasoning because it appears to a disaster prima facie.
