[09:51] {fish_49} I thought already resolved...Russia and China said stay away
[09:51] {nemo} don't quit your day job
[09:51] {dino} he'll throw a couple missles out and thats it. already gave time for assad to hide

[09:55] {nemo} the spread variability in nugt is impressive
[09:55] {nemo} I think it would be easier to trade BRKA
[09:55] {+cc_9} Here is how it will play out : cruise/tomahawk missiles at night, flatten airports and surface-to-air. Cargo in a ton of ammo for Al Nusra {our allies) in the hopes of forcing Assad into a corner.
[09:56] {nemo} yeah, pretty advanced air defenses, unless of course Russia has given us the back-doors
[09:57] {nemo} Maybe we sent them a printer
[09:57] {dino} our another nsa guy
[09:57] {+cc_9} S-300 are pretty effective, but 200+ cruise missiles firing within 24 hours are hard to counter.
[09:58] {nemo} what u say dino?
[09:58] {nemo} ahhh
[09:59] {nemo} before the beginning of the first Iraq war, Saddam's air defense system bought a printer

[14:39] {dino} right now i think its more germany's problem than greece
[14:39] {RonS} coulda been...like Senator Dirkson's quote about "a million here, a million there, and pretty soon it adds up to real money"...
