fly_tornado said:last week the IDF shot and killed a journalist

American female journalist Marie Colvin was killed in a targeted assassination by the Syrian regime in 2012.

Why don't you give equal criticism of actions by opposing forces?

The evidence was partly unsealed on Monday as part of a lawsuit Colvin's family brought against Syria in 2016.Key testimony comes from a Syrian defector, who had been a high-ranking intelligence officer and says he witnessed the orders that led to the death of Colvin.

 

"Marie Colvin was a dog and now she's dead. Let the Americans help her now," the testimony attributes Maj. Gen. Rafik Shahadah as saying.

 

The lawsuit alleges that the attack on Colvin and a media center was part of a coordinated Syrian regime campaign to impose an information blackout by neutralizing professional and citizen journalists in the country who were reaching an international audience.

We should leave Assad where he is as he is at least tolerant of Christians and we have recent knowledge of what happens when you remove ME leaders.

Israel is still a massive human rights abuser

I was in Persia during the uprising and civil war and know of things never reported in media. I can tell you there are NO human rights in the renamed Iran, especially for women.

hello and welcome. Where are you doing your training and what do you fly?

Thank you for the welcome Phil. My comment re landies was in response to someone suggesting getting a Land Rover, presumably because no-one would want to pinch it. I am in an online UK LR group. Every other week someone is reporting their landy has been stolen.

. . .He had a licence. . .I didn't. . .

Know what that is like BirdDog. I am at the back door whenever something flies past.

Hello Bird Dog and Nightmare and thank you.

I haven't flown/trained in a few years due to the GFC which knocked the stuffing out of me. I keep hoping to get back on top and finish it off. Was out at Bankstown.

Did have ambitions for a 20-30 year old Maule, though now if I can afford to get back into it a/c will probably be RAA.

Any suggestions on suitable low growing species?

Hello, I have been a lurker for some time. I'm a stop start student depending on finances. I find this site is a good information resource so thanks for having me.
