GarryB,

Sorry to be picking on you today but you deserve it,

Let me get this straight,

“The japanese attcked Pearl Harbor under the guise of Pre-emptive self Defence”
What crack are you smoking!!!! Exactly who attcked them that they had to defened themselves from?? Did the US attack them on Dec 6th. They had been attcking the Chinese since the mid 1930’s raping their women (rape of Nan-king) etc but they attacked the US for self defence?? Before World War ll the US military was ranked 12th in the world behind Portugal!!!This is a fact.

I bet your one of these guys who believe the Atom Bomb shouldn’t have been dropped on Japan,
I’m not in intel I’m a pilot in the USAF but we recieve intel briefs prior to every mission so I get alot of info that way……..and my father didn’t recieve an education in Italy, read the post!!!! So now your envious because someone was a financial sucess without a formal education? Your psyche is becoming clear, a lonely sad man, pissed off at anyones sucess or nations sucess.

Garry B,

PS…The only reason any man would want to live in Brazil, are the gorgeous women!!!!!!not SU-35’s LOSER!!!!

Garry B,

Your seem quite sad, Its like your so scared of a nation who has the balls, and power to stand up for what they believe is the right thing to do, It scares you? Take a lesson from me, don’t watch CNN or ABC., they don’t represent most Americans in their political outlook, especially CNN who’s getting crushed in the ratings. Bottom line, I’ve always heard NZ is a great country, But you seem to enjoy finding every wart about the US, We are the most powerful, richest country in the world, the most technologically advanced, our flag flies on the moon, Millions of people from all over the world fight to live here,( My Father for one) and for such a diverse population we get along pretty well, Ask yourself if the US was so horrible why do we do so well, I bet your lefty teachers have filled your head with soi much BS you can’t see the forest through the trees., I wish I were as smart as you, and lived in NZ where everyone knows their geography, and Foreign diplomacy is a popular pursuit

Looking back on history, I do note all the great accomplishmnets of New Zealanders in foriegn affairs? Ditto for alot of the other small people on this forum, The sun is shining finally here and I’m outta here, Give my regards to your boyfriend, and If I’m ever in New Zealand (probably when you need help from the US mil since your Prime Minister scrapped your Air Force) I’ll be sure NOT to look you up,
“Evil occurs when good men stand by and do nothing”
This forum has alot of good men!!!!

Kev35,

Even though you are way too smart for me, If your ever in New Jersey drop me a line and I could gladly set up a visit to a level D flight sim for the C-141, also an air -refueling simulator as well, both highly authentic. There is plenty of room for access and most sim techs are happy to show enthusiasts around. We’ll never agree on politics as you all seem to live in an alternate Universe, (humor) but flying is a common passion,
PS I’ve seen a few planes modified for pilots who are wheelchair bond, the controls are all rigged to accomidate hand controls,
Take Care from the home of evil, and all that is wrong with the world, America
TTP

All the celebrations and testimony are Hollywood hoax’s!!!

When will Leftists ever admit you are WRONG!!!!
You have been wrong about every aspect of this war, Mixtec your surprised the Iraqui’s aren’t repelling the hated INVADERS, Dude, your drinking too much Tequila!!!!

A mind is a terrible thing to waste

Snapper,

I threw the soccer field reference in there for the benefit of my European friends, I originally wrote football fields, (American Football that is) and whats up with Farm boy? I told you I’m from New York City, Enjoyed the stab at humor though. Your right about the IRA Like I said originally 9/11 changed the way the US operates not the rest of the world.
PS I find soccer boring, but my daughter loves it! she’s actually pretty good at it.

Kev 35

It was a stab at humor, I thought it was funny, There’s so much US Bashing on this forum its hard to stand by and discuss issues without throwing a few daggers here and there. As far as friendly fire, Tell me Kev You’ve ever flown at 500 plus knots 300 feet AGL and try to find a target??? I’ll bet you haven’t, You can even ask the most professional aviator form the RAF and I’m sure he could tell you how difficult it is, Hell its damned hard finding a drop-zone the size of 5 soccer fields on a sunny day flying at 130 knots!! but I’m sure your an ace on your combat flight simulator. Your all too smart for me, Now go back to your boyfriend!!! Just Kidding!!

Garry B,

Just to enlighten you about Americans. You state Americans don’t know about the rest of the world, but I doubt if you have ever been to America because you’d learn something Astonishing
My Father’s Italian we still speak it at home, though I never really learned, My neighbor is Jewish, the people down the street are from Pakistan, and my wifes best friend is Brazillian, her accent is so thick we can hardly understand her. I live in New Jersey, by the way. I grew up in New York City, here’s some interesting facts about my “isolated” upbringing
There are more Jews in New York than Tel Aviv
More Italians than in Milan
More Puerto Ricans than in san Juan
More Irish than in Dublin
and of course 25% of our population are African-Americans
and 20% hispanic
also more Muslims than in Baghdad
and the list goes on,
If you plan on getting technical I’m speaking of the New York Metro-area about 20 million

I dare say my neighborhood in New York was nick-named the United Nations!!! and for the most part everyone got along well
So I believe most Americans have a far better understanding of different cultures than the average New Zealander!!!!! and as horrible a place as it is, millions around the world still try to come here, I wonder why??
Your remarks are bourne out of some petty jelousy envy, or maybe an American stole your girl/boyfriend in the past?

Arthur, the CFM engines are a collaboration between General Electric and Snemca guess which half designed the engine?
Your economic statements expose your intelligence, stick to the aircraft stuff, your expert in that field.
