Whether or not the people in Iran find out about it -- we do the right thing.
Doing things like us and not "letting them drown" is what makes us the good guys. (I think). It's important to do more than say we're different from them. It's important to BE different from them. Doing the right thing even though nobody is watching is the right thing.
I'm really disappointed in people who would opt to "let them drown" because they are Iranian. Disgusting.
What's even more disgusting is how casually people ignore how US and Israel are planning to bombard Iran with air strikes and nuclear weapons, which will not only lead to Millions of Iranians dead, but likely set in motion, WW III with ten's and even hundreds of Millions more facing extermination.
And guess what the foundation is for justifying such humanitarianism is? "We're different from them ... we're the good guys and they are the bad guys, so whatever we do to them is justified automatically".
I've got news for you friend .... we aren't the good guys anymore. But it certainly is past time to wake up and be the good guys again. The best place to start would be to start demanding that our government STOP bombing the rest of the world into the stone age.
Rafale over Libya - YouTube
Where is frances Nuclear Carrier that was the main source of NATO air power after the US had offiaclly pulled back they had done 70% of all the dtikes done by NATO and showed that their Rafale and carrier Battle group are nice to have support the US fleet and add some more punch and split the Cost.
The Britsh navy has no Air Carriers anymore after the Harriers II fleet was sold to the US Marines to make sure they can keep their current fleets flying at full Capacity and not have any meduim term parts shotages.
Canada led the NATO part of the Mission but our CF-18's had to fly from Canada to italy and that means alot of air-air refuling and mid flight a stop over but we do not have the man power to have a a Nimitiz size carrier group of our own it would be nice but would not happen.
Have to say love the Rafale and think it looks way better than the Eurofigter and also shows the age of Canada's CF-18 fleet where we have no reduced IR siganture no Grolwers and any type of Stealth which so it just proves even more that the F-35 is vital to our needs and pilot if we hope to have a decent and capable Aiforce after 2018-2020 when the CF-18 is retired from service.
well said. it shouldnt matter what nationality the sailors were, if they were attacked by pirates, then we should be kicking the butts of the pirates to davey jones locker, and rescue the hostages.
wel atleast we know pirates are not on anyones sude and can all agree that pirates are a threat to every nation that has any kind of ship traffic in the region.
