I don't think you know much about aerospace and defense development either. I wasted 20 minutes reading up on this "technology" from *checks notes* 35 years ago, and the Lavi is insignificant and perfectly normal for military contracts.

Not when it comes to the U.S. selling to Israel. Israel want 1st rate tech. Not F4s. Once the U.S. saw how good these jets were they resolved to selling Israel top shelf products. Checkmate.

there was not going to be a good ending to this mess the republicans started...however I respect Biden for having the balls to do what's necessary. Out is out
As I stated much earlier Bush II dragged us in. We are stumbling out. If Taliban stays put we can hope that this nightmare fades into the past.
So much for tactical fighting.
They as much as twitch..I'm for a repeat of Dresden. We play by their rules.

You don’t say.
Haven’t you got a baseball game to watch?
Do you think it’s a good idea to airlift pets out of Afghanistan or should the Taliban just eat them, binary choices for retards is the new politic
I don't watch baseball games. What kind of pets, chickens?

Oh god, we finally get a break from those clowns and here comes another fresh troll with stupid intellectually unstimulating posts. Yeah peej good idea there. Lol
Yeah, thanks. I agree that it would have been a good idea to have left when we defeated the Taliban the first time, instead of occupying the country for another two decades, thereby pissing off the Afghan people and reviving the Taliban to a point of a resurgent uprising.

I suppose.
We should have been smarter than that. I mean...Russia?? Com'n! What didn't we learn.
I'm a Monday morning q at this point. Next debacle.....let Nato lead the charge.
Asking the Bush administration to be smarter?

Anyway, the attack on the US at the WTC and others that day required a military response. I'm not at all willing to say we shouldn't have toppled the regime responsible for it. We didn't have an exit strategy, which about sums up what happened thereafter.

Nothings but respect and love for my brothers and sisters on the front lines in the wars we fight. Thank you for your service .
I know this is a particularly painful time for you.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the slain men and women of the USA military yesterday doing their selfless work saving Americans and the Afghan women men and children lives while risking their lives to do this. Their courage , bravery and spirit is admirable and what makes the USA the best country on this planet. God bless America!
