    The people waging this war are pretty dumb, aren’t they?

    This whole thing is Team America the movie in real life. I just keep envisioning maga humming”America fuk yea”, thinking they are still the good guys, doing good guy stuff, while the rest of the world sees them as complete assholes.

    The fact that the US Navy actually posted the evidence on their own Instagram account is the wildest part.

    Are they just genuinely trying to piss off as many people around the globe as they possibly can?

  5. What a bunch of imbeciles the lot of them. They respect nothing, they have no morality, no education, no brains. They just sell and bomb stuff.

  6. The disregard for rules from US armed forces is not new
    …but at least in the past it felt harassment in exchange of protection…

    now they are simply the enemy within

    I left the US, moved across an entire ocean, and yet that still isn’t far enough to escape their bullshit. They’re still making my life more difficult than necessary.

    Remember in Iraq when they smashed up bricks from a UNESCO site to fill sandbags?

  9. I’m sure the US just decided to land there with no notification to or coordination with the Italian military. This is a nothing burger.

  10. If the Italians decide the US is not allowed to use Sigonella, that’ll be the second major logistics hub (after Rota) they lose by being dumb.

  11. If this site is protected. If Italy has laws (Its own FAA) that prohibit aircraft from landing at such sites. If the military doctorine has rules regarding this. Then it was poor planning and poor execution. This of course would be forgiven in the event of malfunction or suspected malfunction that could cause the loss of the aircraft as the damage done to the site would be far worse with a crash than a controlled landing.

  12. Americans do what they want.

    Two F15’s did a 500ft low pass over a City, heavily populated area.

    >”This training is required to maintain combat proficiency and entails aircrew flying at an altitude of 500-1,000 feet.

    >”While we take maximum care to avoid overpopulated areas especially during night operations to mitigate noise impacts, we apologise for any disturbance and inconvenience caused.”

    Literally over the most populated area of the Country.

    What the fuck are you doing?
