    Because that uberexpensive piece of ureliable (*)(*)(*)(*), also known as B-2, will do what exactly to Mach 3 fighter?

    Tell it to those dosens of fighters and bombers they shot down.
    I recall first use of MiG-15, when our pilots solved the issue of those B-29 harrasing NORKs once and for all
    That 3,4:1 kill ratio was awesome.

    I am not even talking about Vietnam.

    US technology is POS.

    There's a distinct possibility that you may be delusional.

    Of course you would have to get your tanks to Europe first...and they're not much use when they're on a vulnerable transport ship.

    Ahhh, the Strawman arises. I never said they were at fault for the world's ills, but they are the ones that are fault when it comes to what is happening in Europe, who invaded who there?

    Other way, like what the Russians are doing in the Ukraine, invade part of a Nation and inflame and arm rebels to tear apart the remaining parts of the Ukraine? Spin it any way you want but the Russians are the ones being the aggressor here not the US.

    The B-2s won't stay long. Their unusual shape requires a special hangar, and you don't leave something that expensive outside for any protracted period of time.

    Europe will have to see to fending off Putin for themselves.

    Or has Europe become as worthless in their own defense as the Maliki regime?

    It does not really matter "Where" the B2 is flying.....what matters is what it is doing. Having them in Europe just means we can destroy something a few hours sooner.

    "The B-2 is the only U.S. aircraft that combines long range, large payload and stealth in a single platform, giving it the ability to project air power anywhere in the world. It can fly more than 6,000 nautical miles unrefueled and more than 10,000 nautical miles with just one aerial refueling. With its ability to carry more than 20 tons of conventional and nuclear ordnance and deliver it precisely under any weather conditions, the B-2 also has the ability to change the outcome of a conflict with a single mission."

    I see this as little more than a reminder to Putin.

    Putin does not care, he is playing a game of chicken, a game that if he keeps playing will see the end to his place on this planet. Personally I hope the KGB agent will back off and claim victory over the evil West, but if he does not then he will be facing more than he and Russia will be able to handle, and that will be that.

    As long as he plays it against the cowardly Hussein Obama, and a Europe too besotted with its welfare state to defend itself, he wins by default.

    Strange how in one breath Cons refer to Obama as a Warmonger and in the next breath call him Cowardly, pssst it is one or the other not both. I am glad he does not follw the lead of the McCains out there that would have already declared WWIII, a good leader is supposed try all other means at their desposal before using the military option, that is why Dubya was not a good leader and so many Americans paid the price and for what?

    One is left to wonder what criteria you use to label a President far more educated and ballsy then you will ever be as gutless and inept? Just how many times have you ordered a drone strike, the killing of a terrorist leader, or say down to negotiate with world leaders? How many degrees do you hold, and where did you attend college?
    Do you also hold the Highest office in the most powerful country in the world?

    They have their own cosy specially made hanger in Fairfield. I was reading about them smiling as they were being caressed into it.

    Sure they didn't, it was just the natural migration pattern of Russians. Just in case you did not know if you keep migrating west there will be an open season on Russians put in place, no limits.

    Then the Russians realized the Americans were right and had to spend money to develop their own space pens because they found out that graphite dust can short out electronics.

    Nobody was wrong or right. This story just a legend. In fact before 1968 both USA and USSR used pencils. Later both started to use Fisher Space Pen.

    Actually we are the second world by definition, but I cannot accuse you in your lack of knowlege. It is all your damned education system, aimed more at producing dumb cattle rather than educated citizens. Sadly, it seems successful in it.

    It seems our ATGMs are damn good against Abrams....and everything else.

    In case you didn't know there are indelible pencils, which you can use without fear of graphite dust.
