Politics

Maybe it's part of the prisoner exchange: they get their big shot arms dealer and in addition to getting two lowly prisoners back, they get one of our big shot dealers.

Wrong country.

You're confusing China and Russia.
 

Militants of Kosovo are beginning to massively enter Serbian settlements on the border with Serbia​

The Shrine of Remembrance CEO is under fire after being caught out fabricating "threats against staff" for his plan to light up the war memorial in 'pride colours'.

Dean Lee planned to light the sacred site without consultation of the RSL before backtracking ahead of a large protest set to descend on The Shrine.

This new "politically correct compliant" BS military Sucks!!, disgusting, and an embarrassment to all the men and women whom have served this great nation throughout it's 250+ years history (from the beginning of the establishment of the original 13 colonies to the end of our most recent conflict in Afghanistan).

exactly
doing this stupid sh!t, politicizing being gay is just a way to cause a divide in people
your sexuality has nothing to do with being a soldier, why l was so happy to see the out roar in Australia to stop our sacred shrine of remembrance from being politicized by lighting up our war memorial in pride colours

This nonsense is being so oversold on the right wingnut side of the information spectrum. We still have finest military on the planet. The vast majority of its soldiers and leadership are professional and dedicated to the proposition of protecting this country - with their lives if necessary. No one is walking around with little rainbow coalition patches. One of our divisions would take apart any three similar organizations of any army in the world. The US Air Force is a decade or more ahead technologically than any other in the world, and those fighters and bombers are flown by the best trained and most experienced aviators on the planet. At sea, I am confident every one of Russia's boomers has a silent escort from the moment it leaves port. And no one in their right mind wants to tangle with Super Hornet much less an F35.

Yes, the services have given some lip service to some of the administration's social initiatives. Like it or not, our military leadership is dedicated to the notion of civilian control. They are expected to salute. I suspect all of us in this republic of ours should be very grateful for that.
 
l dont doubt the American Military is "the" if not one of the finest on the planet
but you do remember the latest recruitment advert dont you?
that does not come from a right wingnut side of the information spectrum Redleg
you know as well as all of us where it comes from and its disgraceful to politicize the American Army

 
How you can become rich beyond your wildest dreams. No it's not a means of predicting lottery numbers. All that you have to do is invent a method where a person that was born with y chromosomes can add the little piece to all of his y's turning them into x chromosomes. And the reverse process where all of her x's can have the piece removed, turning them into y's. Since each cell does what its DNA tells it, all that sexually directed stuff such as difference in height, muscle mass and even reproductive parts would, over time change to the new chromosome. So at some point a person that believes they are TRANSGENDER could actually change their SEX.

All that counselling, medications, surgery will be obsoleted and added to the dustbin of history. If you had the patent on that you would make Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates look like paupers.
 
and respectfully maybe you are right, maybe more nato weapons of war will stop this proxy war
who knows?, it sounds like many other American/nato theory's that we will have this crowd as our friends today because it suits us at this time and later it will turn into a they are against us plot
eg... the Taliban and many more

what really bothers me is that the first casualty is Truth, so when does BS turn into the Truth?
is it when your own backers finally have the gonads to criticise you?
eg... many many story's about how the sanctions on Russia have hurt Russia but then you have pro Ukrainian "the Guardian" come out with this article

The rouble is soaring and Putin is stronger than ever - our sanctions have backfired​

Energy prices are rocketing, inflation is soaring and millions are being starved of grain. Surely Johnson knew this would happen?

Western sanctions against Russia are the most ill-conceived and counterproductive policy in recent international history. Military aid to Ukraine is justified, but the economic war is ineffective against the regime in Moscow, and devastating for its unintended targets. World energy prices are rocketing, inflation is soaring, supply chains are chaotic and millions are being starved of gas, grain and fertiliser. Yet Vladimir Putin’s barbarity only escalates – as does his hold over his own people.


To criticise western sanctions is close to anathema. Defence analysts are dumb on the subject. Strategy thinktanks are silent. Britain’s putative leaders, Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak, compete in belligerent rhetoric, promising ever tougher sanctions without a word of purpose. Yet, hint at scepticism on the subject and you will be excoriated as “pro-Putin” and anti-Ukraine. Sanctions are the war cry of the west’s crusade.
The reality of sanctions on Russia is that they invite retaliation. Putin is free to freeze Europe this winter. He has slashed supply from major pipelines such as Nord Stream 1 by up to 80%. World oil prices have surged and eastern Europe’s flow of wheat and other foodstuffs to Africa and Asia has been all but suspended.

Britain’s domestic gas bills face tripling inside a year. The chief beneficiary is none other than Russia, whose energy exports to Asia have soared, driving its balance of payments into unprecedented surplus. The rouble is one of the world’s strongest currencies this year, having strengthened since January by nearly 50%. Moscow’s overseas assets have been frozen and its oligarchs have relocated their yachts, but there is no sign that Putin cares. He has no electorate to worry him


l especially had an enormous belly laugh when l read this statement as it is so true ROFLMAO
"hint at scepticism on the subject and you will be excoriated as “pro-Putin” and anti-Ukraine"
that's when you are kicked out of the tribe as a heathen LOL
l personally would just rather see the kids sort it out differently in the sandpit
As a point of order, the Guardian is a lefty rag of the highest order. They care nothing for the conflict in Ukraine or the people there. That article is a thinly veiled attack during against Boris and his conservative cabinet in the hopes of further hurting the conservatives before the next elections.

Bullshit...you are listening/Russian figures that they are giving for their economy....it is actually getting hammered....some people need to get a grip on reality....also after early strength the rouble is now I believe the worst performing currency against the usual standard safe currencies....it was only strong due to the Russian central putin bank who controlled the foreign currency transactions...now that's not working in their favour....


In longterm Russia isn't looking good....yeah you quote now....as do the headlines...but go deeper and its fkd ...going to take long time to recover....

Well, except for that Gay Pride Parade I saw on Patch Barracks this year, and of course the changes to the CNO reading list, and, of course there's the Air Force pronoun thing and...

Yes, Civilian Control. But I promise you that there are some strange things afoot at the Circle K.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
Behind the scenes of taking that perfect picture.....

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
