amen bager!

F/A-35?! BLASPHEMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The United States Air Farce will NEVER go for that designator!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with you. The US interferes WAY too much in the worl! We NEVER should have gotten involved in WW2. Or WW1 for that mater. We should have let Europe handle their problems themselves.

OK…..but who has the better soccer…I mean…Football team?

Sorry to barge in, but: This line of thought is rather futile, Lula is “best Buddies” with Chavez, there is NO POSSIBILITY WHATSOEVER of the FAVs fighters to be used aginst Brazil. Or of Brazil needing to respond to their attack.

But on the level of national prestige/pride, some opposition politicians (not the government’s, pay attention) might be tempted to equalize the playing field pushing for some modern fighter type be aquired sooner then 2015.

The Brazilian Air Force screwed itself up when they weren’t able to pick the one fighter the force wanted. Because of this the Air Force brass lost control of the purchase to the politicians… and down the drain it went…

If Brazill and Venezuela go to war it will be for a REAL reason……..the World Cup for example……. 😀

Could be the start of a nasty little South American arms race…….
