You know Brainy, I find it funny how much we agree on politically in a general sense, but how much we disagree on specific issues.

Y U DO THAT?!?

I just have that talent and a raging clue.

Y U DO THAT BRAINY?!?

Really? You just gotta make everything political. Also, guided bombs and the like don't seem to be as efficient as you think they are.

I don't know about the older laser-sighted GBU type weapons, but the JDAM package, in addition to being astoundingly cheap, has a pretty stellar operational record.

For reference, JDAM is not a specific weapon, but a retrofit kit that adds GPS-guided navigation to older "dumb" bombs." Example:

And, of course, if you need more precision / more firepower than that, there's always Chuck Norris.

Idiot. You cant level the entire middle east with just one.

You don't actually need to level the place. You just need to convince everyone that we (the US) are a bunch of batshit-crazy psychopaths who are more than willing to indiscriminately nuke anyone who we don't take much of a liking to.

So, maybe two. Two is usually the correct number of atomic bombs.

Five minutes later, the OPEC nations will suddenly "realize" that their oil production facilities are capable of operating at a much higher output level than was previously thought, and the entire region will decide that maybe hereditary monarchies and theocracies weren't such a good idea after all. Five minutes after that they will have executed all of their royal families / dictators, and will be falling over one another in a race to hold free and fair elections, dismantle their nuclear refining programs and use the land to build schools and puppy farms, grant equal rights to women and minorities, establish an open press, and purchase as many McDonald's franchises and GM dealerships as they can physically fit within their borders.

Joe Perez for President.

Say what you will about ancestral land and forty virgins, there are very few things in this world which appeal more to any large group of people than not being completely annihilated.

40? I thought it was 77?

Dear Iran,

We are looking for nuclear weapons in your facilities. Please stand by while we send you an example of one and kindly demonstrate its functionality.

I'm already convinced. Look around.

No, everyone things we're crazy, but in a drooling, shooting ourselves in the foot way.

We need to become the ChuckyZ of the international community.

Give it time. Such things can't be had over night.

Palin for President?

That's what I'm talking about. Massively disproportionate use of force.

Say that you have developed a cancerous tumor in the bones of your foot. The surgeon doesn't just go in there and nibble at it, they take off the whole damn foot and part of the leg with it. Gotta take off some "good" tissue with the bad, to make sure you got it all.

So we hear that some douchebag terrorist is hiding in a small village near the base of a mountain. Don't just send in an MQ-9 Reaper drone to drop a single hellfire missile right onto his pillow while he's asleep, just have the nearest Ohio-class submarine toss a half-dozen Trident-II SLBMs at him. Make the whole village go away, and take half the mountain with it. In fact, don't even target the village- launch the missiles at the opposite side of the mountain, and just fold the whole thing over. That way, future archaeologists can have something interesting to dig up.

Can't risk missing part of the infection!

Do that a couple of times, and the very concept of "harboring a fugitive" will cease to exist. Because we're not just coming after you, we're coming after everyone you've ever known, all of their sons and daughters, their livestock, the rickety cart that they push into town and back every day, and the French missionaries who were trying to help them build a hospital and teach them how to grow twenty acres of corn with just a teaspoon of water a year.

The instant some village elder hears that somebody who might have been accused of doing something that the Americans might have even possibly misinterpreted as being a little bit like terrorism is walking towards their village, they will immediately raise every man, woman and child to run out and confront this person before he comes anywhere near the village, whereupon they will immediately kill him, cut off his head, and then hike 500 km across the desert to deliver it, in a gift-wrapped box, to the US embassy. If they know what's good for them, they will also include a nice little basket of various soft cheeses.

^That is why we *generally* don't just bomb the sh*t out of every aria that we expect has a terrorist in it, you can not replace boots on the ground. Can you accomplish a lot of stuff with Hellfire missile fired from a drone? Yeppers, but collateral damage can be high and you can not accomplish everything like that.


Although, I do like cheese...

This kills me

But that's just it- you don't have to actually hit the target you were aiming for.

You just have to wipe out every other living thing within a twenty mile radius of the target, and make sure that everyone knows WHY you had to do it.

Once that's accomplished, the local population will take care of removing potential targets from their midst all by themselves.

I was being cereal, but your way would work too. Dick Cheney would have L-O-V-E-D it.

I bet over the last 3 or 4 years I have laughed at that clip 1000 times. I still laugh every time I watch it. The camera mans Muttley laugh makes me start laughing before anything else.

Joe, it may have been you that posted this on here originally a while back, but for everyone else's benefit: Nuke the Moon.

Best part about it is that we seriously considered it at one point.

I laughed aloud for almost 10 minutes at these three posts... :bowrofl:

How to drill a square hole? Wankel knew...

:bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl:

I had a Muslim friend explain a much simpler way to me--desecrate the local mosque and drop leaflets everywhere saying why you did and who's at fault. It will cause everyone to turn on the people hiding in the village pretty much without exception and then you don't have to destroy everything or spend crazy money on troops missiles etc.

He said the most effective way is to simply spray it with pig fat from a helicopter/drone or the like and just drop some pamphlets from the same helicopter explaining who's at fault.

Probably a huge bag of dog ----. :rofl:

It's staged, but still funny. That was his house and the video was sent to his boss as a gag.

So, what's the message here?
You need to own an oil field to drive one of those?

Am I supposed to apologize for not being a fan of some steroid laden dude?

I do vaguely remember him, actually.

My point was about the whole scene in that pic to begin with...

Disable a cat? Well you gotta use a O2 clamp.

New combine. 8.3 litres of powah.

That is absolutely beautiful, where did you find these?

A waste of steroids honestly. Hes tiny as hell.

This is a new (to me, at least) technique called cinemagraph. They are still photos, but they are gifs at the same time.

Very cool technique.
