This is one of the threads that keep appearing here, not sure why either?

This type of OT always leads to

1. Armchair Generals/Armchair Political Analysts
2. Fear Moggers "Crying the world is ending"
3. Angry name calling and temper rants

not of which belong on this forum, if you guys want to talk about this fine, but find another place.

Please close and lock this thread now before things get out of hand.

Who are the armchair generals/political analysts that you are referring to?
Who are the fear moggers you are referring to?
Who are the angry name callers and who are having temper rants?

And since when are the members of this board restricted from discussing world events such as this which may interest many members?

So far, the contents of this thread have not violated any of the forum guidelines. It's clearly labeled OT, but its subject matter could be of interest to anyone interested in creating/modifying a more up-to-date T2K timeline/history.

Rest assured, I will keep an eye on this thread and, if it seems to be getting out of hand, I will lock it. If this kind of thread bothers you on principle, I recommend that you avoid it.

For those who are interested the Russians are today jamming US drones over Syria.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...gin#newcomment

This article states that the USS Harry Truman is heading to the Arabian Gulf.

This website states that the Harry Truman is in Norfolk, and other carriers available are the Abraham Lincoln, George Bush and Gerald Ford also in Norfolk, the John C. Stennis off the coast of California, the Ronald Reagan in Japan, the Carl Vinson somewhere in the Pacific and the USS Theodore Roosevelt in the South China Sea.

http://www.gonavy.jp/CVLocation.html

So it will take a week for any carrier to get the Middle East unless Gonavy is been fed deliberately misleading information.

So if they are going to strike Assad immediately it will be through TLAM's or USAF airstrikes.

Lets see what the Stealth's can do - we have them so might as well use them. Or the BUFF's with the air launch capability they still have

Oh I don't really care one way or another, I just think it's funny that this is the fourth time this OT topic has come up or did we forget about this

http://forum.juhlin.com/showthread.p...ighlight=Syria

or this

or this

As I said before this type of thread seems to bring out the worse in people.

Just food for thought is all.
