Obama hasn't got the balls for another war.
He has just sent the USS Bataan to the Mediterranean, with 2200 US Marines on board.
These days I chose to have to have no opinion on any military action such as this because quite frankly, who the hell knows for sure anymore?
Right, wrong, ulterior motive, 'saving people', removing 'evil people'
I have given up even bothering to care.

it probably was as they were suposed to have two jets.
guess this was the second one
Great video, thanks for posting it
The defenceheadquarters has been posting some great videos of the jet movements.
sounds like syria is kicking off now... half of these protests poping up are probably because they think the UN will help them to.
stupid idiots america , france and the UK if they would just have enforced a regular no fly zone and stoped gaddafi from hitting benghazi without nuking his whole army half of the protests elsewhere probably wouldnt have happened

I believe it was destroyed after landing, completely unneeded killing regardless of who had flown it.
It landed at a friendly base and was bombed shortly after, how much danger did it pose at standstill?

you mean the protests that started over a month before the UN even thought about helping out?
Protests in Syria started on 26 January
A major demonstration of over 16,000 protestors took place in Sana'a (Yemen) on 27 January

The pilots of the crashed F15 were rescued by rebels who then threw a party for them, then the USAF rescue helicopter showed up and opened fire on them thinking they were threatening the pilots, maiming a child and killing a few others, looks like it was smart of me putting that fiver on the US to score the first accidental civilian killings
On another note why were the two people aboard the F15, their supposed to be single seat except for trainers, why the hell were they conducting training exercises in a war zone :S

Its embarrassing isn't it. But then whenever I see Arabs celebrating it usually involves waving AK47s with a few rounds fires skywards. (god knows what they hit when they land) So who knows what the rescue chopper personel saw.
F15E (Strike Eagle) is 2 seat
Ahh didn't realise it was the air to ground variant the news was just saying F15
