No – its not a sign in itself.

But to me, the primary responsibilities of a government are being met – education healthcare and security.

So your not interested in freedom or liberty then?:rolleyes:

Yeap – alot of accusations, somewhat short on proof…

I see free education, healthcare and religious affiliation. I see women holding 35% of the parliament seats… :confused:

(Incidentally, under a Cuban funded healthcare scheme active throughout South America, Cuban doctors saved the sight of the Bolivian that shot Che Guevara there last week IIRC)

Meanwhile, the country that is behind the various UN resolutions has openly and consistently carried out human rights abuses at Guantanamo bay… maybe that is what you mean by Cuba?

I suggest you go and research what happens to Fidels political opponents and stop trolling about the US. I notice you have nothing to say about North Korea.:rolleyes: 😀

Well I quess it might be easier than trying to tell that to certain people in certain country which basicly grew out of all the religious nutcases of europe being driven there…:dev2:

Typical trolling from you.:mad:

Hahahahahaha… no body was planning on nuking Russia… was the whole cold war just a joke?

EGO? Ask Serbia, Ask the Iraqis, Ask the Iranians, Ask the Cubans, Ask the North Koreans what it is like to be at the whim of the west. Their chief crime has been not to do as they were told… a crime the US commits every day but international law does not apply to nuclear powers able to deliver nuclear weapons at the west in sufficent concentrations as to make the west vulnerable.

The cold war was about the Soviet Union, it is over.

I suggest that you go and google those countries human rights records.:rolleyes:

True…….Yet, Iran would be wise to invest in more advance types. Possibly, the Mig-29.:confused:

Another option certainly, but arnt their Fulcrums the basic of the basic variants? And I was under the impression that they were not overly impressed by them?

The model seems to show mid mounted wings and a twin tail fin, thus combining the features of the two different F-5 variants we have seen thus far. However without details about the engine it is very difficult to say what class this is in. And it is still only a model.

What has the IRIAF gained from this new (sic) jet?

Steve

1)Something for its pilots to fly as the older aircraft fall apart.

2)Something for their media to photograph and BS about.

3)Something for US hater terrorist fan boys to cling to in their ‘death to America dreams’. Remember all the talk about this being an F-18 equivilant?;) 😀

As for what they have actually gained, well if the US does attack they might have to use a few extra AMRAAM’s I suppose?:diablo:

I am still not convinced that this is the final incarnation, I am waiting on the mid winged twin fin F-5 variant combining the features of the two that we have seen so far.
