#2 I think I heard Fox News confirm the buzzing - I was on the phone. That's really gotta sting.

Too bad they didn't leave a mark, like blowing up his swimming pool, and posting the camera footage on YouTube or something.

#11 Selling highly complex triple A systems, even RU produced systems, to muzrats is something akin to taking a Duroc to violin lessons. I doubt anyone's air force is too concerned.

#12 Well, If you were from a country that flew 80's era soviet migs with a lack of spare parts you may be concerned. But IAF prolly has it covered.
