Metz’s only comment comparing the F-22 and the YF-23 was: “The Air Force made the right decision”.
“We made a tremendous product that would stand side by side with anything else and in many cases exceed the capabilities of anything else.”
Besides he didn’t fly the YF22 & nobody did fly both the YF22 & YF23. He flew the F22 though, & still seems to think the YF23 was better.

Wahhabism was created by Muhhamad Wahhab in the 1700s, this dude hardly qualifies as a CIA assett.
Now, the fact that later in history they were used by americans to get the russians should be no surprise, their fanaticism was well known.
Where them beloved americans fvucked up was in the foresight department, blowback effect and all
Yeah they didn’t “invent” it per se, but they are the ones who made it relevant again in order to p1ss in Russian cornflakes.

I never claimed anything wrt the situation in Syria, I just countered the argument that Russia had nothing to do with fundamental islam.

Perhaps you could start up a thread in the Nicholas10 conspiracy section of this forum?
I don’t suppose Russia or Assad care whether French conspiracy theory misunderstands World History, and if it gives you some comfort to interpret an incredibly complicated situation in such a bizarre way, then I wish you well.
While you are only capable of quoting a bond movie, I gave you a couple of good sources to begin looking into middle eastern geopolitics. What you do with them is your own business, and I will leave it there in order not to pollute the thread with your sarcasm.

I think you are mixing up facts & beliefs. What makes you so confident in your own belief? Saw it in a James Bond movie?
You should stop watching TV & read books. Start with a few by Peter Dale Scott for instance.

Well with the US & their puppets all over the place it’s better to send platforms that aren’t too sensitive.
Thpse recently upgraded Su25 would be nice though.

ISIS is not Russias problem they never threatned to invade or attack Russia , so whats the point attacking team , its like making enemies when there is none.
Are you kidding? Wahabbism was created by the CIA especially to destabilize the Russian islamic republics.

Yes I’ve seen Tomorrow Never Dies too! It is actually quite a good Bond film.
I haven’t, what’s with the movie?

It looks like Paul Metz thinks that the YF23 was superior to anything else. As a test pilot for the F22 this is quite revealing.
Nic
What’s happening though? To my mind this appears to be very important but on the BBC for example, its not a priority.
In the media, the event doesn’t create the news, but the news create the events.

Dutch F-35.
lol no kidding
Probably because they will come for free, which wouldn’t be the case with the Python V?

Is it a sapologie thread?

We don’t need trolls to shame us all. We’ve got politicians for that… plenty of them.
