    Mid-air collision

    Yes, that’s the intended outcome of firing a rocket.

      It wasn’t a rocket… Two KC135s collided. One made it back.

      The moron isn’t allowed to start a war, as far as the Constitution is concerned.

      Trump is the end result of ignoring the Constitution for many decades, he is what you get. And he’s the dumb one

          We had a good run, a solid century or two. In the 70s, the FBI would nail reps for taking bribes (Abscam).

          Now, there’s no reason to bribe illegally, we have Super PACs and shell companies for such things, and it’s ALL LEGAL, so it’s not even “corruption”. GOOD JOB

    Ironically the picture in the post is of a notably non-American MiG-29. The rest seems pretty on-point, though.

      We perfected building a near peer military with Russia in mind. We build massive fleets of wildly expensive machines and great arsenals of similarly expensive ammunition. We made almost all of that shit overwhelmingly dependent on the supply chain of a flammable, nonrenewable, black fluid easily controllable by the nation we just attacked. One which has taken seriously the new lesson that such militaries are obsolete and top heavy. The way forward lies in small, cheap, autonomous suicide drones, cyber attacks, propaganda, and economic pressure. They’re one of the few countries to take that lesson to heart. We have recently decapitated the competence of nearly every powerful system of our nation; political and military, and pushed our economy to the brink. We are led by hyper-overconfident, insecure, malicious idiots supported only by a cult minority of our population.

      Not quite perfect is right. The rest of the world should bind together to pressure us, hard.

      It doesn’t matter. They have the capital and populace to throw into this meat grinder until they decide it’s enough. We see the same with Russia, and soon we’ll see the same with China. The world is getting too expensive and too crowded so the war machines are all starting up.

      And thus the cycle continues; ad nauseam

        The world is getting too crowded because of India and Africa. China’s population has already reched its peak a few years back and is declining since. As long as India and Africa don’t join any potential WW3, the global population won’t decline.

          If a World War were to break out, no chance India and Africa are to be able to sit on the outskirts.
