#16 The Arafish set up the PLO HQ in Beruit after they got their a$$es kicked out of Jordan by King Hussain in Black September. Put the HQ smack dab in downtown Beruit. Israelis told Lebanon to get them out, so Israel did. It was not pretty. |

#14 Reads like we are getting a little more serious about bringing this war to a conclusion we've been at it a long time. |

#13 Ahmadi further added that only the civilians have been killed and their houses have been destroyed in the airstrikes. So Ahmadi should be thanking us for doing their job right? |

#12 WW|| was won by bombing the stuff out of the enemies citys. Unfortunately, the terrorists in this world now build their tunnels and ammo depots in the middle of cities. There should be no places to hide for these animals, it is the only way to destroy them. |

#10 If our systems are destroyed, I'm sure we'll be able to lease coverage from the Russians, or even the Chinese. |

#9 W, GPS birds are in high orbits (about 20000 km from the ground; geo is about 35,786 km). To my knowledge, nobody has tested a-sat weapons at that height. Besides, there are spares. |

#8 Open Question. How will we carry out GPS bombings like this, cruise missiles etc if the Chinese destroy our satellites? Weapons systems for just this purpose are underworks. Some have been tested. Right now we have little defense, if any. Respectfully, W |

#4 "The video shows the airstrike on Taliban explosives compound in southern Helmand province, triggering a massive explosion after bombs were dropped, apparently by B-52 bombers." In general, a B-52 strike will result in a massive explosion. That's kinda the point. |
