Military - August 2006

If you do a little research over the internet you can see that 90% or more of the armed conflicts around the world are muslims implicated? Why they spend their lifes hating others? The life is to short to spend it like this.

I was just wondering why are some countries still buying old western junk like the F-15s (South Korea, Singapore, Japan..etc) when there may be better aircraft out there, eg, Su-30, MiG-29 (China, Malaysia, Thailand...just to name a few in the Asian region as it might just be the next flashpoint). I'm not pretending to be the most knowledgable military buff out there, but I'm quite sure the F-15s and F-16s are outclassed by the more recent Russian fighters. Why are some countries continuing to purchase these outdated Western fighters when they could have gone for the more technologically advanced Eurofighter Typhoon or Rafale?

How come that Google Earth has updated Lebanon and Israel 's images to much higher resolution only 2 weeks prior to the current conflict???
I have a flat located south of Beirut airport, when I tried to located it with Google earth on the 14th of June 2006, the images were blurry with no particular details.

Less than 2 weeks later, I revisited the the same area and saw the map was updated for most of the 2 countries with clearer and much higher resolution.

War in that particular part of the world started few days later???

I knew a German gentleman who fought in both world wars on our side. Is there a book or an official document that would list any other Germans that did the same? On this occasion, I am not looking for other nationalities, eg, Polish, Dutch, French etc.

Would most of us feel like we need to renew the war on terror or would we feel like thats what got us into this in the first place? Would we rally behind Bush again or would we blame him? Whats your opinion?

From a military view, this is not debating them or justifying that they should be invading Lebanon. They said they are going to hold off the offensive until the weekend, and try to reach a cease fire. Don't you think they should move massive amounts of troops into Lebanon? It seems like the air attacks can only be so critical when you need to be careful of where you are bombing.

Suicide bomber kills 33 in southern Iraq By QAIS AL-BASHIR, Associated Press Writer

BAGHDAD, Iraq - A suicide bomber detonated a belt of explosives on his body near a highly revered Shiite shrine in southern Iraq Thursday, killing at least 33 people and injuring 108, an official said.


The bomber blew himself up while being patted down by policemen near the Imam Ali mosque in the Shiite holy city of Najaf, said Dr. Munthir al-Ithari, the head of Najaf's health directorate. He said one Iranian woman was among the 33 dead and nine Iranians among the 108 injured.

In a statement, the military stated it is hard to get this under control.
