I know this was meant for Torog but I do have to step in and shoot my trap a bit. In the first flick it states that we don't need all this improvement based on our nuclear might.....the next one states that we should cut back on the nukes also. Where does it stop with the cuts? The feds main priority is national defense. China's new plane was specifically designed to destroy our F-15 and F-16.......which is why we need to spend on the new Raptors. If our people are possibly going to have to face this new jet I would think that we'd want to have ours upgraded also for their protection.

As for your comment on "Crudly made IEDs". These IEDs are the latest in Iranian technology for piercing heavily armoured vehicles.

Considering the state of the world right now, I'd dump a few more cookies on the big stack with a HUGE glass of milk too!

Have a good one!:s4:
