RSSThe sands of the hourglass are getting scarce. The enemy monitors our numbers and they are fearful. We can instantly pull our consent and literally darken the countryside. So in turn, they must label us with the most abhorrent label, before we do so.
Yet another koolaid addict popping up out of nowhere here on Unz and spreading manure lavishly...
'...3. Russia is in reality militarily weak and tottering economically. Very plausible, very plausible indeed. Putin’s March 1st boastful speech then makes perfect sense as the desperate bluff of the desperate leader of a desperate state...'
And this about Russian air defense capability...
'...Another friend who has spoken with military commanders in the CENTCOM AOR told me:
All of the knowledgeable aircraft commanders are usually scared shitless about the prospect of a legitimate air-to-air skirmish with a SU-30 or any Russian air superiority fighter...'
And speaking of Col Lang...he has some thoughts today about the koolaid drinkers on this very website...
'...Any air defense engineer with a security clearance that isn't lying through his teeth will admit that Russia's air defense technology surpassed us in the 1950's and we've never been able to catch up. The systems thy have in place surrounding Moscow make our Patriot 3's look like fucking nerf guns...'
Col Lang's UR article here...
'...I wrote a piece for the Unz Review yesterday. You can see it over there. There were over a hundred comments. Most of them were favorable, but some were just awful...'
Lang’s a prima donna, too ego-involved. He has similar hissy fits on his own website, shutting down comments when groupthink fails and gives his ego owies. Note his implied dichotomy, ‘favorable’ XOR ‘awful.’
Lang’s heart is in the right place but he’s prone to VFW-barstool sentimentality. His problem in the UNZ article is characteristic: he fixates on bad people when the uniformly bad results of the command structure would lead an objective observer to take a broader view. He’s a patriot, in short, blinkered by residual indoctrination. He knows his country is fup duck but he doesn’t dare think that’s by design.
What saves Lang is that his commenters are very sharp and plugged-in, FB-grade.
