Good to see the CIA back in action



There is a sentence I never expected to see again.

[Udie]

Do you think they did it?  Would be cool if they did

[Eagler]

Either us or Israel

or a joint Op <- my guess

[Staga]

If that really was CIA:
Would it be cool if Syrians would blow up Boeing's factories in U.S ?

Just asking

 If we were using them to crash into thier homes or buildings or generaly using them as weapons against them or their allies then yes.  But as we're not no, it's just a smart bellybutton comment from some stupid american hater.......

[Sikboy]

I think Raytheon would be a better example.

Just sayin

Propably Israel did use U.S made hardware when it launched air-strikes to Syria and Lebanon.

What if Libya would blow up General Dynamics? U.S were using F-111 planes when it attacked Tripoli and Benghazi?

Still cool eh? I don't think so

[Udie]

edited out because I used the "F" word way too much.


 suffice it to say staga

While it is certainly less "cool" to be on the receiving end of military retribution (which this may or may not have been, either by the US, or Israel, or Bohemia or whoever) it certainly doesn't detract from the overall view that if this was an act of military retribution, it warrents the tag of "cool" I suppose.

We celebrate our victories, we mourn our losses. Such is the nature of conflict. I for one feel little pity when I WMD facility is destroyed. Considering that Syria is one of the few countries in the world who is not a signatory of the CWC, it makes this even more "cool" in my estimation.

Yikes!...Udie

Drink a beer bud, yer gonna pop an artery or something.

[Toad]

What if destroying this factory ultimately prevented a nuke/chem/bio tipped Scud from falling on .... say.... Finland?

Or even some richly deserving bastiges like the US?

Or maybe even more richly deserving bastiges like Israel?

Still cool?

 Nah all the veins are where they should be  I'm just growing tired of the anti-americans out there.   I can only hope that one day he will learn first hand what it is to be a victim of terrorism.  Then maybe he'd understand how it's cool to see a terrorist factory of a country (syria) get one of their WMD factories blown up before the weapons could be used on US or our allies.


 I will say it's a good thing we have this forum to discuss these things.  I'd be in prison for murder if this was done face to face or be dead hehe.

If one day the world woke up and America was as evil as staga and his ilk would have you believe.  Staga, remember we could, if we chose to,  end the world.....  We could/would have just dropped a few 50 MT nukes on bagdad 12 years ago and been done with the problem.  We didn't because we respect life more than any other country that has existed on this planet.

Er back to the content of the thread...

One factory is meant to produce solid-fuel missiles and the
                  other is for liquid-fuel missiles. The solid-fuel missile is being developed with the
                  help of Iran.

                  The Homs explosion is said to be the latest in a series of accidents that have
                  taken place during Syria's missile and nonconventional weapons programs. In
                  1991, the Syrian Health Ministry closed down five pharmaceuticals plants,
                  including one in Homs, during what Western intelligence agencies determined
                  were tests of chemical weapons.

Granted, Russia and the US escalated the production of WMD back during the cold war, their purpose was MAD if the other decided to play chicken.  My only thoughts with countries like Syria and Iran may be not one of MAD but one of an offensive role.
