Look at the fiasco of the siege of the US embassy in Tehran in 1979 which went on for 444 days, an utter failure of a rescue attempt, where was John Wayne then when he was needed ? news.bbc.co.uk |

| 537324 | 2007-04-01 00:42:00 | ..and then comes the NZ army! With it's $100,000-a-shot shoulder mounted rockets. Can you imagine using these on a battlefield? I think it would go something like this ... "Uhh ... .fire it at that right?" "Yeah I think so, hold on I'll confirm, we can't have you spending $100,000 for no reason" ... ... ... "Yeah shoot it at that" "It's gone" "Oh." ... and then there are the LAV's :groan: |

Back in the good old days when it was fashionable to be patriotic, and when a fifth or more of the world was coloured pink in the atlas's; commons.wikimedia.org a gunboat would have been sent to sort out the heathen. But wait, I forget, there was a gunboat already there and they did nothing. Oh the shame of it :rolleyes: :thumbs: |
