... MOPs? -

they probably figure, get 'em before they're gone


btw, did you realize mops is spom spelled backwards?

 

student parents on a mission?

self-paced online modules?

self-powering oxygen machine?

simulated physiological oocyte maturation?

it's also omps spelled inside out.

 

A brand-spanking new, 50 year old aircraft?

I thought that they've been working on that deal since August....and really.....the IDF has been rolling F15's since the 1970's, haven't they?
I guess that's why they call it "fake news."
The 15-Echo (family sedan) model is "newer" by a decade, but they were testing them out back when Regan was considered to be an elderly President - and IIRC they made their combat debut in Gulf-1.

Don't get me wrong!
I like the EX models.
It's a fine bomb/missile truck...and it can fight its way back to the barn after doing the air-to-mud thing......maybe.
IF there are no G5 aircraft to bother them.
They're about as stealthy as a NASCAR race.

Boeing's been getting a bunch of that "Ford Pinto" stank on them lately.
The IDF had better do those post delivery inspections pretty carefully!!!!!

 

your data doesn't fit the o/p's world view, sorry

 

I'm not.

Facts don't care about people's 'feels.'

 

facts seem to be in the minds of the beholders these days

 

That's because nobody checks the 'fact checkers.'

 

it's only going to get worse with ai and hackers

They ordered planes, and it means something to keep the base making up stuff. Because they are going to need a lot of believing make believe in the next short period of attempted, but again failed, authoritarian rule. Sorry Charley, founders had a king, that’s why they devised this here USA to never have one.

 

"That's because nobody checks the 'fact checkers.'" Weeeellll ...

U-Penn.....
....."A study found high agreement on like claims for PolitiFact and Snopes."

Ya think?
(Groupthink?)

 

Objective agreement is not what people imply by saying groupthink. I think.

 

Some would suggest "groupthink" is the absence of individual thought.

 

I saw this goofy lady on TV once who might have put it like THIS....

 

I would draw this "evidence we believe" -> "evidence we accept" and "our beliefs" -> "our worldview" Because for me, beliefs do not rely on evidence.

But the 'like' is because you wrote "who might have..." I have long fought for 'who' as pronoun for people, and 'that' pronoun applies to all else. I seem not to have completely lost the fight.

 

Pronouns were another thing that they were mocked for.

Not my particular holy cow.
