The Extinction Rebellion Protesters in London are plain CRAZY!

Today’s campaign is all about air pollution. Their sign reads “Air Pollution Kills 25 Londoners Each Day.” @LBC pic.twitter.com/uJa1h3Z0PQ
These people are batshit crazy...100% pure batshit crazy...gluing themselves to cinder blocks? Pouring chemicals into breathing apparatus? Doing all this I'm suppose to take them seriously?

| I would have recommended a different course but Romanian Forces are coming along nicely. We're seeing (at least from my chair) modernization coupled with a bit of smart spending...with the usual benefits to local industry (as much as possible). |

Turkey starts TS3000 Engine Project...

| That Heavy Class General Purpose Helicopter they've developed looks good. Sorta a blend between an S-92 and a Merlin. Can't wait to see how it performs. I'm expecting good things. The Turks have got their aviation and armor programs rolling along nicely. |

JART (Artillery Days) on the Canjuers military camp (French Army firepower demonstration)...
Note. Didn't know the French Army was buying the Titus 6x6. Looks good. Big but good. I know this post is suppose to be about artillery but check out the Titus 6x6 below.

The US has allocated more money rebuilding Afghanistan (after adjusting for inflation) than it did to rebuild Europe after WWII???
The United States has allocated more than $133 billion to build up Afghanistan — more than it spent, adjusted for inflation, to revive the whole of Western Europe with the Marshall Plan after World War II. https://t.co/8Azv7navDo— Aki Heikkinen (@akihheikkinen) December 9, 2019
SIMPLY AMAZING!
Historians will not be kind to the Bush Jr, Obama, Trump and whoever wins next year (unless they immediately pull us out) administrations. Additionally future military trainers/instructors will use these years as a warning to every new member of the force. We have lived thru one of the biggest "what not to do" periods in the history of ANY modern military force.

They're breaking down the killing of civilians in the UPS Truck incident on Reddit...not looking pretty.
Note. For some reason I missed this. Circling back this thing was tragic as hell. I only ask you all to consider one thing. This whole thing was caused because a madman decided he wanted to take what wasn't his. Full stop. This could have been so much worse without police intervention. We just don't know. What we do know is that our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims...except the low life criminal's that is.
