#1 Wow. They got beyond vehicles and mortar pits? Who's gonna tell Champ?

I hope they used Rockeyes, but I feel bad about that hope - doesn't somebody think cluster bombs are bad?

#4 an ISIL armed vehicle, two ISIL-occupied buildings and a large ISIL ground unit
So that's a deuce with a 50, two hard floor tents and a full size pickup?

#5 Let's hope this doesn't appear in the newspaper. Champ will be very upset that something was hit. I'd say heads are going to roll but that is a bad choice of phrases. Someone might get fired over this would be a better choice.

#6 I am wondering what their train-up process is, gonna have some softies coming in. I'd think good training camps would make tempting targets.

#8 Beso, would I be incorrect thinking two A-10s would make hash out of this lineup in about 2 minutes?

#12 A-10's would be a nice choice but General Mitchell isn't here to show us how to operate land based aircraft from a carrier and none of Obumbles flag officers have the balls to tell him otherwise. witness the around the cuff sniping over boots on
the ground
