#1 Does anyone have the serial numbers on the SA-7s that Sammy bought?

#4 Aircraft are in danger below 10,000 feet. So, the area that needs to be defended is the approach and departure paths out to where aircraft are above that altitude.

#6 While the Brits are hunting Wahabi financed missiles, the Islamo-fascists of the Promotion-of-virtue-Prevention-of-vice corps are conducting search and destroy operations against ROP conscripts who have dared to celebrate Valentine's Day. The Saud hired tablecloth-heads have this to say to sweethearts everywhere:

I would like to send a 10 megaton Valentine to Mecca, Medina and Riyadh.

#8 If you sent a Valentine's greeting in the form of a 10 megaton bomb to Mecca today, you could wipe out a whole big bunch of turbans. Just trying to make your site more bloodthirsty Fred so you can move up in the most bloodthirsty category next year.

#9 This is something I have considered and rejected. Methinks it would be much more effective to put a few kilos of X in the water supply. No fatalities, but a whole lot of laughs and embarassment a-plenty.

#10 Next Haj, couldn't we just spray Mecca with Ebola from 40,000 feet?

#11 The Brits are getting the same type of detractor heat that we in the US are getting. Stopping terrorism is like facilities maintenance. You never get an "atta-boy" when nothing happens. On another note, maybe we should develop some nitrous oxide "laughing gas" JDAMS. It would be a hoot to see millios of folks in Mecca laughing their asses off. They need to lighten up a bit. Just a thought.
