Before I even attempt to read THE WALL OF TEXT...let me explain something to you. I AM NOT MILITARY!!! I am..."CIVILIAN"....in the manner the quotes denote and I have COMPLETE AND TOTAL AUTHORITY to either do a JOB....not do a JOB....quit a JOB in the middle of a JOB if I feel things are wrong....AND I DO NOT SALUTE AND MY TEAM MEMBERS ARE TAUGHT TO NEVER SALUTE ME!!! Because anyone I catch Saluting me has to CHALLENGE ME....and I have NEVER lost....and after some young 20 something kid gets their ass handed to them over and over again by this old man....they learn not to salute VERY QUICKLY!! No one pulls my strings and if my Team want's to leave....I trust them but they have never in any of the multiple incarnations of any of my Team EVER voted any other way than all of us voted. And YES....I AM TEAM LEADER AND HAVE COMPLETE AND TOTAL AUTHORITY....and under me....you can vote if the first JOB is DONE....and some FAT ASS BRASS DESC JOCKEY asks me if my Team and I could stay. I allowed a vote...but we all knew what the result would be. Understand now? AboveAlpha
As for the rest of your questions....you obviously don't know what a MEET AND GREET is at all. You talk about which AK...having a 380 Yard Range? Maybe the AK-74 but it sure as HELL is NOT the AK-47 especially in the hands of some Islamic Extremist. 380 Yards is the lenght of almost 4 Football Fields and it close to 1/4 of a Mile. The first pull of the trigger of an AK-47 makes it KICK LIKE A MULE!!! NO one....to be able to shoot me with an AK-47 without a scope standard in the Middle East Model AK-47 at 380 Yards!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!! Every other shot after the first will be off my many multiples of degrees from me just standing still there as a target!!! AboveAlpha
As well....I never talked about Jihadists wanting to follow a wounded me and my Team to a Medical Assett....they might be interested in where we might go as far as a Village or a Munitions Depot we might have hidden....but WE ARE ON OUR OWN!!! We die...we are DISAVOWED!!! GET IT NOW SOLDIER!!!?? AboveAlpha - - - Updated - - - Oh....and I was practically within SPITTING DISTANCE when he shot me....and it is the one and only big mistake I have ever made. What are suppossed to be Allies....sometimes are enemy. AboveAlpha
There was an official census in 1931 PALESTINE 1931 CENSUS The Census of 1931 recorded 693,147 as Muslim Arabs... and, I found the following written by no other but the Royal Institute of International Affairs, quoting part of it:- Racially, the Arabs of Palestine are very mixed... Palestine in the course of history has been invaded by Canaanites/Phoenicians, Israelites, Philistines, Assyrians, Babylonians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs, Franks, Mongols, Turks, French, Egyptians, and British, and during the course of the latter period attracted an inordinate amount of people sent over by absentee Landowner to work their Land… these were Caucasians, Circassians, Bosnians, Bukharians, Moghrabim (North Africans), Syrians, Egyptians, Turks, Trans-Jordan Bedouins, etc., all of these have contributed to the racial stock of the country. Unquote. Also, quote partially:- The Jews of Palestine are equally mixed in origin. The unifying influence of a common language is only just beginning to overcome some of this divergence. Here again statistics are misleading. According to the 1931 census, the Jewish population was 174,606. The two main groups of the Jewish population were the Sephardim and the Ashkenazi. The Sephardim, until the Mandate, formed the majority of the Jewish population of Palestine. There are minor differences of religious rite and pronunciation of Hebrew between the two groups, but the main difference is in historical tradition. Population The total settled population of Palestine on 31 March 1947 was estimated to be 1,867,I20 of whom 1,090,870 were Muslims, 614,239 Jews, 146,162 Christians, and 15,849 of other or no religion. The following table shows the increase in settled population since 1922, the date of the first modern census: INCREASE IN SETTLED POPULATION SINCE 1922 Year Muslims /\/\. Jews /\/\ Christians/\/\ Others /\/\ Total 1922 486,177 /\/\ 83,790 /\/\ 71,464/\/\ 7,617/\/\ 649,048 1931 693,147/\/\ 174,606 /\/\ 88,907/\/\ 10,101/\/\ 966,761 Census year 1935 770,135/\/\ 355,157 /\/\ 105,236/\/\ 11,031/\/\ 1,241,559 1940 881,293/\/\ 463,335 /\/\ 120,587/\/\ 12,362/\/\ 1,477,977 1946 1,076,780 /\/\ 608,230 /\/\ 145,060/\/\ 15,490/\/\ 1,845,560 (SOURCES: Government of Palestine, General Monthly Bulletin of Current Statistics (Jan.-Feb. 194; Statistical Abstract of Palestine 1940.) Since the last census was taken in 1931, these figures are an estimate based on the Census figures, adding the number of births and subtracting the number of deaths since then, and allowing for migration. There are many possibilities of error in these calculations.
You can keep on believing Rods of God do not exist. Do you know WHO...coined the term...RODS OF GOD? His name is Tom Clancy....a Military Action Triller Author who has years later after the fact been found to be right about a LOT of things. This technology is very far outin miles and years. A pair of satellites orbiting several hundred miles above the Earth would serve as a weapons system. One functions as the targeting and communications platform while the other carries numerous tungsten rodsup to 20 feet in length and a foot in diameterthat it can drop on targets with less than 15 minutes notice. When instructed from the ground, the targeting satellite commands its partner to drop one of its darts. The guided rods enter the atmosphere, protected by a thermal coating, traveling at 36,000 feet per secondcomparable to the speed of a meteor. The result: complete devastation of the target, even if its buried deep underground. (The two-platform configuration permits the weapon to be reloaded by just launching a new set of rods, rather than replacing the entire system.) The concept of kinetic-energy weapons has been around ever since the RAND Corporation proposed placing rods on the tips of ICBMs in the 1950s; the satellite twist was popularized by sci-fi writer Jerry Pournelle. Though the Pentagon wont say how far along the research is, or even confirm that any efforts are underway, the concept persists. The U.S. Air Force Transformation Flight Plan, published by the Air Force in November 2003, references hypervelocity rod bundles in its outline of future space-based weapons, and in 2002, another report from RAND, Space Weapons, Earth Wars, dedicated entire sections to the technologys usefulness. If so-called Rods from Godan informal nickname of untraceable originever do materialize, it wont be for at least 15 years. Launching heavy tungsten rods into space will require substantially cheaper rocket technology than we have today. But there are numerous other obstacles to making such a system work. Pike, of GlobalSecurity.org, argues that the rods speed would be so high that they would vaporize on impact, before the rods could penetrate the surface. Furthermore, the absentee ratiothe fact that orbiting satellites circle the Earth every 100 minutes and so at any given time might be far from the desired targetwould be prohibitive. A better solution, Pike argues, is to pursue the original concept: Place the rods atop intercontinental ballistic missiles, which would slow down enough during the downward part of their trajectory to avoid vaporizing on impact. ICBMs would also be less expensive and, since theyre stationed on Earth, would take less time to reach their targets. The space-basing people seem to understand the downside of space weapons, Pike saysamong them, high costs and the difficulty of maintaining weapon platforms in orbit. But Ill still bet you theres a lot of classified work on this going on right now. The above article was from Popular Mechanics back in 2004! LINK...http://www.popsci.com/scitech/article/2004-06/rods-god How about.... Did God Rods Cause A US Space Weapon, Not Meteors, To Hit Russia And Cuba? By Yoichi Shimatsu Posted on February 18, 2013 by Jean A very different and interesting take on the meteorite situation. . . ~J Exclusive to Rense.com 2-16-13 The Western media cover-up, promoted by so-called meteor experts planted by the military complex, tells of a fantastic meteorite striking Russias Urals region, while trying to ignore a second spectacular space disaster in Cuba, which occurred just hours later. A pair of massive meteorites, each brighter than the Sun, has never been recorded before in the entire history of astral chronologies. Obviously, the bus-size objects that fell from the sky are man-made and not freaks of nature. While it is too early yet for a conclusive determination, one scenario can explain the twin disasters, and that is a free fall of a U.S. Air Force orbital weapons platform loaded with super-heavy God Rods. A dual-cabin space-based bomber likely caused the falsely attributed meteorite hits on Russias Urals region and, just hours later, on Cuban territory. In both cases, witnesses and videophone images showed bus-shaped objects brighter than the Sun falling to Earth in regions halfway around the world from each other. Rods from God God Rods are the ultimate bunker busters, which strike with Luciferian power despite their name, which came no doubt from the apocalyptic corps of evangelical graduates of the Air Force Academy. To prepare a God Rod assault on Irans hardened nuclear bunkers, the USAF dual-chamber orbital ship would be positioned into a slower near-geostationary orbit over the Caspian Sea. The Rods from God are depleted uranium rods sheathed in a ceramic foam shell, which prevents friction-caused searing vaporization during re-entry. The DU rods rely on kinetic energy from gravity acceleration reaching supersonic speeds along a close-to vertical trajectory. Upon impact with the Earths surface, the ceramic shell is shattered into powder, while the DU becomes a red-hot searing liquid fire that burns through rock and concrete. Turning into dust and gas, the depleted uranium will ignite the air inside any bunker or tunnel, creating shock waves that cause the roof to cave in. A test drop of a God Rod probably caused the seismic blast and destruction of an underground Iranian nuclear lab in late January. What Goes Up One problem of near-geostationary orbit, however, is the massive weight of the God Rod canisters aboard the space bus. With the slightest miscalculation of minimum orbital momentum, the space-based weapons platform tumbles into free fall. Plummeting to Earth along an oscillating parabolic path, the astro-soldiers aboard the USAF weapons platform would have to decouple the weapons-carrying cabin from the command module. Presumably the crew boarded an escape pod, the blue streak seen by San Franciscans, which landed at sea in the Gulf or Atlantic. Their fate will never be revealed to the public, despite the loud claims from the United States of being a democracy with information transparency in contrast to evil dictatorships. It was probably the weapons cabin that hit the Russian Urals, a region with a dozen nuclear research reactors around the Chelyabinsk nuclear-weapons zone and the large power reactor near Ekaterinaberg. Besides injuring 1,400 people, mainly from flying glass of windows broken by sonic booms, the vaporized DU rods will also add more radiation to the atmosphere, already contaminated by the Fukushima meltdowns, and further degrade the Siberian environment, which is highly radioactive from reckless Soviet strategic weapons testing in the past. If the USAF vehicle had smashed into one of the many terrestrial research reactors, a nuclear power station or a warhead facility in the Urals, there would undoubtedly have been a thermonuclear exchange between Russia and the US. A Russian retaliatory strike would have destroyed every US military base worldwide and most major cities in America. The complacent and amoral American public has tolerated the secret space-based weapons program and so would have no grounds for complaint at the loss of a hundred million or more lives inside their own territory. The rest of the world, of course, would not be so forgiving to the USA for triggering an Armageddon. As for the gung-ho evangelical Air Force officer corps, it seems the loss of their space toy means that God must be on the other side of the rod. Yoichi Shimatsu, former editor of The Japan Times Weekly, is a Hong Kong-based science writer. POINT IS....you are one of the very few people left who do not know they exist. AboveAlpha
By the way....depending upon the angle of attack....which will determine the Acceleration of the ROD at it enters the atmosphere as well as the SIZE thus MASS as they all are basically made with Depleted Uranium wrapped in Ceramic and Tungston Steel.....the Force of Impact due to Kinetic Energy Transphere as well as the density of the material impacted will determine the Kilotonage of such a weapon. When they first started designing them and they thought about making them back in the 1950's....they were looking for a weapon that could either deplicate a Hiroshima Force Blast....or penetrate a NORAD style Mountain Base. This tech is OLD....SIMPLE....and is FAR FROM BEING CLASSIFIED as about 10 Million People who read that Tom Clancy Book....I didn't read it....know they exist. AboveAlpha
Why not just leave them alone? They seem to represent the will of the Iraqis and the Syrians. Why interfere in their affairs? Whites have no reason to be there.
It's too late. Iraq is already theirs. To eliminate them means to exterminate the Iraqi people. It was obvious that as soon as the US presence would diminish, a new dictator would take Saddam's place. Don't we westerners ever learn our lesson? ... no reason to be there unless we want matters there to make a turn for the worse.
Maybe, I'm saying just maybe, if all Arabs are going to unite under a single Islamic State, a more coherent leadership will arise, one that would understand the language of international relations and establish a true dialog with the world powers. Of course that leadership will be a dictatorship that will rule over its Muslim people with an iron fist, like Saddam did. There is no other way. It's the natural flow of things there. The Americans destabilized the Middle East by removing Saddam who proved to be a reasonable, talkative leader as far as the international scene is concerned. Few people know that in the Iraq-Iran war, the USA was an ally of Iraq. Trying to stop the Islamic State would only fuel hatred. Instead, why not just let them grow, so that a new stable dictatorship like that of Bashaar al-Assad or that of Saddam or that in Iran can form? Bombing them will only fuel their determination.
"For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong." - H. L. Mencken The OP is a case in point.
LEAVE THEM...ISIS ALONE????? So...you think it is OK for a small group with heavy weapons to sweep through peaceful Arab areas and Behead and Rape Children and Women and bury Men while they are still alive??? Every member of ISIS must be extrerminated off the face of the Earth....and it is coming. AboveAlpha
Your right about one thing....there is a group of people who never learn......Poverty Stricken Arabs who are too afraid after CENTURIES OF CONDITIONING to fight for their own rights. Still....this does not mean it is OK to let them die. I wish you could have seen and know what I have seen, known and done...even today. These Arabs who's lives we save from members of the ISIS don't care what Nationality or Religion we are....they only are GREATFUL their wives, husbands, children and elderly still live. Against us....and we really are just SPECIALISTS....the ISIS are a bunch of CHILDREN WITH BB GUNS!!! We can kill them at will. AboveAlpha
Please...give the membershp your plan to save these peoples lives. It is so easy to be thousands of miles away from dying and tortured people and say....THAT IS NOT MY PROBLEM!! It is another thing for me and my Team when this is happening a few hundred yards away from us. Oh...by the way. Have you ever seen what happens to a Human Head wrapped in Tribal ISIS Headgear when it is impacted by a .50 Caliber round fired out of a Barrett M82 Sniper Rifle? The Human Head just sort of vanishes in a powedery fine mix of bone, brains and blood no larger in particulate size than say a grain of sand or smaller. The Cloth Headgear....sort of just pops like a balloon leaving ragged pieces floating to the ground. Quick, Clean Death....and the ISIS are not worthy of such a clean death as they rape young boy's and girls then with dull knives saw back and forth from the back of the neck until they cut through....it takes time. AboveAlpha
Rights is a concept they can't grasp. That's the Middle East. Destroy a rebel group, and another one raises. So what's the point of wasting American taxpayers' money there? As far as I know everyone joins ISIS. Every Muslim they get their hands on. I suspect that when ISIS reaches them, they are just as GREATFUL to them that they saved them from you. You see what I mean? These are the Arabs. They live in the moment.
I like overkill, short of nuclear weapons. You might ask if there is such a thing, but I say that there's NEVER such a thing as overkill, it's ALWAYS just enough kill.
Have you EVER been to Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Kuwait, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan...or the Waziristan Tribal Region of Pakistan....a place the Pakistani Military is afrid to go....ever been? WELL I HAVE BEEN TO ALL THESE PLACES...ALL OVER THESE NATIONS....if some can even be called that.....and 99% of the people are JUST NORMAL PEOPLE!!! It's the 1% of Tribal Warlords Imans....etc....some still fighting the Battle of Karbala all over again. Do you know what these people were most afraid of in Iraqi and Afghanistan? THAT WE WOULD LEAVE!!! Don't let anyone kid you....the U.S. Military is completely capable of wiping out the Taliban and Al-Qaeda members who every late fall would cross over from Afghanistan and spend winter in the Waziristan Tribal region of Pakistan....then every spring like CLOCKWORK.....they would all come back over the boarder from Waziristan back to Afghanistan with 90% or more of their fighters doing this within a 3 to 7 day period. This boarder is long but the vast majority use a 250 mile stretch of it to cross back over into Afghanistan. IF....IF...the U.S. Politician's had the will.....the U.S. Air Force using B-52's, B-1B's and B-2's....all loaded with our new SELF-AUTONOMOUS DIRECTED CLUSTER MUNITION....(SADCM)....which is a Cluster Munition that does not break the Anti-Cluster Bomb Treaty as if the individual Cluster Munition does not detonate...it renders itself inert so that CHILDREN will not find it and get killed or maimed. Anyways.....we would use our Heavy Bombers in a 72 Hour Long day and Night Campaign using mostly the SADCM's of which a very large number exists inside a variety of Large and Small Satellite or GPS Guided Missiles or Bombs carried by B-52's, B-1B's and B-2's.....and a single Cluster Munition of HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS within a single Bomb or Missile act as MIRV'S....and some are dedicated for destroying Heavy Self Propelled Weapons such as Tanks, Self Propelled Howitzers or even Technicals....a Technical is the name given to a small truck that the Taliban have mounted .50 Caliber Machine Guns upon....or any other mechanized vehicle, troop carrier or weapon. Other SADCM's are specifically developed for ANTIPERSONEL USE....and here is the beauty of such Antipersonel Cluster Bombs.....they are SELF-AUTONOMOUS.....each one has it's own scanner and say you have 100 Taliban Armed Fighters and mixed in with then 50 Villagers who that Taliban abducted to use as human Shields. The Taliban KNOW a Drone will be able to SEE children and women mixed in with Taliban Forces thus the Taliban KNOW we would not launch a Hellfire Missile from a Predator. BUT.....a Heavy Bomber....say a B-2....can drop 80....that is EIGHTY...80! JDAM and GPS Guided 500 lbs bombs but instead of 80 dumb 500 lbs bombs wiping out a whole lot of ground as well as 100 Taliban and 50 Villagers.....each 500 Lbs Bomb dropped at altitudes so high it allows each one of the 80 500 lbs sized bombs filled with hundreds of SELF-AUTONOMOUS DIRECTED CLUSTER MUNITION....(SADCM)....to strike 80 INDEPENDENT TARGETS SOME OF WHICH ARE 10 TO 50 MILES OR MORE..."Distance Classified".....and then the best part. Each one of these 80 Targets if Antipersonnel....and let's say there are 50 women and children in with 100 Taliban Fighters.....the Each Sub-Munition will Self-Autonomously direct itself toward the Fighters holding Rifles and other weapons. Now it is not perfect because the Taliban could force some women to carry ammo but the system will not kill childen as it scans for body mass....and this is being worked on for women as well. The Antipersonnal Cluster Munitions have a very tiny explosive force and work more as a Kinetic Kill Device so a person could be standing right next to the bad guy when the bad guy get's hit and not die. The versions for use against Vehicles and Tanks and other Weapons Systems are carried in the 1000 lbs to 2000 lbs JDAM/GPS sized bombs. Missiles are available as well both Cruise and other. I have ZERO DOUBT....that if the Political Will is there....we could in a matter of a few weeks COMPLETELY DEGRADE ISIS FORCES TO THE POINT THERE WOULD NOT BE ENOUGH LEFT TO FILL A CITY BUS!!! AboveAlpha
I can tell you FIRST HAND what happened. We had a really working well....Enterprise...running out of Jordan as we were getting Soviet and Chinese Weapons into the hands of REAL SYRIAN REBELS....not the crazy Jihadists that started coming streaming into Syria and do you know WHY they came streaming in.....because of two reasons. Reason #1. Assad and his family is Alawite...a Shiite Tribal Sect....and even though the vast majority of people in Syria are Sunni.....Assad like his Father before him have used extreme brutality and the help of groups such as Hezbollah, Hamas and Islamic Jihad....along with the Syrian Secret Police...Assad's ABSOLUTELY MURDEROUS CRAZY BROTHER.....he likes shooting innocent people and likes to see himself do this on Digital Video over and over again....and the Syrian Military to control the vast and greater number of Syrian Shiite's. Why does the U.S. allow this? Because in exchange Assad makes certain that Syria is one of the more Progressive Middle Eastern Nations and protects Christians in Syria and women do not have to wear Burkas...etc. But still....Assad is a murderous SOB who used Chemical Weapons....so here we are supplying THE RIGHT PEOPLE THE RIGHT WEAPONS AND....I remember that day because I seldom watch the news as it is seldom correct but I am watching the news and Obama comes right out and say's "THE U.S. WILL OVERTLY ARM THE SYRIAN REBELS!" I almost fell out of my chair!!! Then when Obama drew a line and said don't cross and Assad crossed Jihadists came to the conclusion that the U.S. had no will to come back into the Middle East and Sunni Islamic Extremists came streaming in thus at that point we shut down the Jordan Enterprise. So....that REASON I blame on Obama. The other person who is guilty for creating this growing disease is ASSAD!!! He saw a chance to allow his boarders to become a bit more pourous and allowed Islamic Jihadists in early on to make the case that all Syrian Rebels were nothing but Al-Qaeda and Sunni Islamic Extremists....but the problem was...ASSAD did not count on the fact they would keep on coming!!!! Syria has a LOT of Chemical Weapons and we know EXACTLY how many they have as I was there watching REAL TIME SATELLITE FEED as Iraqi Trucks in a large convoy LOADED WITH CHEMICAL WEAPONS crossed into Syria and this was just before we invaded Iraq. WE WERE ALL FLOORED!!! Saddam and the ASSAD FAMILY were SWORN BLOOD ENEMIES!!! It made no sense. So...we know how many Chemical Weapons Assad has...we know where they are....the SOB distributed the Chemical Weapons in caches in densely populated Civilian areas.....and....we have the ability to go in and get them. Again....Political Will. AboveAlpha
This passage shows that you are completely full of BS. No soldier should salute a civilian at any time, the sole excpetion being the POTUS. The salute is a greeting between warriors. As a civilian, you are no warrior. Were you military, you would not have the right to deny someone the right to salute, nor would you have the option of not returning their salutes. It is a privilege to salute and be acknowledged, not a duty. You have just proved, once again, that you have had no contact with any branch of the military ever in any capacity. Assaulting a soldier is a felony offense. Once again, no servicemember would salute you at any time. Unless, of course, you claim to be Obama. Once again, Putting an issue to a vote is detrimental to the welfare of the team. You would be relieved from command if this were the case. I understand that if you are telling the truth you are a menace to yourself and your team. But you're not. You don't even have the sense to lie about something you have knowledge of, you're just pulling stuff out of your butt. Quit digging yourself in deeper.
I would reverse that statement; It is obvious you have no understanding of your subject. Look it up. Google isn't that hard. suggested searches: AK47 specs; AK47 vs. M16 comparison. I know how far 380 yards is. Though your math skills are impressive. And . . . ? Really? You claimed some Arab leader nailed you with a called shot one handed. Is it really such a stretch to think that some of these guys, having been at war for most of their lives, have developed a skill vital to their survival?
What other type of asset would be of more immediate use, idiot? It makes zero sense to drag a wounded guy to an ammo dump. Who said I am a soldier? Certainly not I. One need not be to understand tactics, strategy and game theory. - - - Updated - - - Still a pretty good called shot one handed with a weapon that, according to you, kicks like a mule. And it is nowhere near the only mistake you ever made, if your tale about venturing onto Hamas turf is true. For the record, I believe that to be a fairy story as well. People are not always what they say they are. You, for example.
So . . . The guy who coined your term was a fiction writer. Does that somehow add to the validity of your claim? As far as the rest of this claptrap goes, it is all speculative. It asks questions and makes accusations but makes no attempt to prove its conclusions. Big surprise, coming from you.
