BDA flight?

I was always under the impression that turning off your transponder was a no no.

It’s also Triple coincidental that a Blackhawk spent several hours hovering 250 km away from the damage zone approximately around the same time for many hours

If someone was being 'sneaky', why wouldn't they just squawk a different ID?
You know, to NOT draw attention to yourself?

Shouldn't most State Actors have that ability?

Doesn’t the US have stealth planes and helicopters (ie the Bin Laden raid) they could have used?

Valid point, imo this looks suspicious enough to let everyone assume we did it without USA actually claiming credit.

At bare minimum it’s highly suspect and if Biden didn’t order it the US DOD should be explaining the reasoning for the suspect flights.

Imagine if something blew up off our coast and Russia planes had been loitering the exact area at the same time……

Why?

 

[rooster]

Why?

Imagine for a moment that we had flight data that an unmarked plane had loitered the area near deep water horizon while a Russian helicopter launched from Cuba loitered 250 km away.

Would we expect an explanation from the Russians? Would the war drums be beating here on this very forum???

 

[BugI02]

No, and no

No, we wouldn't. Why would we?

No transponder just paints you as a primary target.

I don't get US involvement in destroying that pipeline. What's to stop russian subs from torpedoing oil platforms in the gulf in retaliation?

If you are in the EU you are already in a one party system in which leaders are selected from a pool picked by previous leaders. No citizen in the EU has any vote or say in who leads the EU or the EU central bank. Russian's have more sovereignty and say in government than anyone living in a country that is part of the EU. At this point I think the EU itself is far more communist than Russia is. Lest we forget the "democracy" of Ukraine has just one political party allowed to even exist(not a part of the EU yet,it needs a bit more debt to fully be accepted so they can control it for generations).


Sure I cheered the new conservative Italian prime ministers victory,but in the end she is under the control of the EU. Her nations finances depend 100% on bowing to their demands and the leadership of the EU knows this.
