Jimbo 0 #1 September 10, 2002 What do you think? Is this anything but swaggering? http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&ncid=578&e=1&cid=578&u=/nm/20020909/ts_nm/attack_anniversary_missiles_dc - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends.

freeflir29 0 #2 September 10, 2002 Uuummm...it's just the military doing an exercise. I wouldn't really call it posturing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimbo 0 #3 September 10, 2002 Posturing wasn't really the right word, I changed it to swaggering, but I'm not sure that's correct either. The question is, is the military actually planning to install AA missles around a crowded city, or is this just a high profile exercise to make the citizens feel better? - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends.

AggieDave 6 #4 September 10, 2002 I would say its more of a "make people feel better" type of thing. If they really wanted to do damage to something, they have their nifty f-16s flying around...--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."
