Take Vietnam for example. Our interest was to stop communism from spreading in asia. So we wanted to stop communist north vietnam from taking over south vietnam. We didn't do it, but it's a good example of defending our interests. Yes, oil can be an interest to a nation. But we're not going to war over oil. Say someone invades a country and captures a large oil supply. We would want to take him out of power because he could hurt the U.S. (and other countries) by how he sells that oil.

Like I said, I don't agree with what they did. But they're my government and I stand by them. Even in their mistakes. If I didn't, I'd move to Canada. The U.S. is at war. No, not with the whole world, like some critics are blowing it up to be, and not with Islam either. The U.S. is trying to defend itself. This isn't about oil, it isn't about racism. This is about the U.S. defending itself and it's interests overseas.

Nope, it's not a MiG-23. 23s are sweep-wing. Dang man you picked a real tough one.

FOXBAT!!! Ah! Â no. MiG-23 (Flogger)

Well, I don't think that the images are THAT bad, but I see what you're getting at. For the most part, I think people can tell the difference between a game and reality, no matter how good the graphics are. At least until we get into really high-tech stuff where you stimulate the brain to make the person think they're really experiencing things. But that's just me daydreaming.

Man, that's a real tough one! Reminds me of an F-4, and an A-4, but I know it's neither. hmm...

Even more then that: it protects the governments actions in any way. You know what that is? Racism - nothing less.<span id='postcolor'> Racism!? How on earth do you come to that conclusion? And don't judge large groups of people with one sentence, it doesn't make you look good. It's almost racist in itself.

Here are some tips for posting pictures of airplanes. 1) Change the filename if it has anything to do with the type of plane. Simply download it (right click, save as), change the filename, then upload it to a hosting server (I'll be happy to host if you like). 2) Try not to link direcly from the website, it's easy to go backwards through the URL and find the information. 3) If possible, don't pick pictures that have the airplanes N number, or identification number in it. It's easy to look up the N number online and get lots of information.

It should only be scary if you're shooting the artillery shell. LOL VERY amazing. This should also mean we can take out ICBMs.

Once I flew so low, I actually landed the plane safely. Then, I was so low, I actually taxied the plane to parking.
