Chirac promises to NUKE…

Hi! I’m not too sure where this post goes, so @Panther feel free to move it.

What’s the longest game ever played on this forum? As in, the longest gap between the first turn played in a game and the last turn played? Games that achieved this number due to huge gaps in between turns count. Thank you!

@ABWorsham4

I’m sorry.

@Witt you need to brush up on your military history.

Happy Quanza. Whatever that was

The USAF and the RCAF/CFAC also had some nuclear-tipped air-to-air weapons in their inventories, such as the AIR-2 Genie.  Canada had them as late as 1984; they were carried by CF-101 Voodoo interceptors.  They were officially under US control, but they could be released for use by Canada as circumstances warranted.

In addition to the two big components of the nuclear triad that have already been mentioned – the land-based ballistic missiles and the manned SAC bombers – there was also the third component, the US Navy’s ballistic missile subs.  At the opposite end of the scale, the US nuclear inventory includes – if I’m not mistaken – man-portable nuclear demolition charges, designed for things like special commando-type operations.  I think a weapon of this type is featured in the 1977 motion picture thriller Twilight’s Last Gleaming.

I can’t agree that Carter was one of our better presidents.

Who in his right mind would turn over complete ownership and control of the Panama Canal to a nation not exactly friendly to vital American interest?

However, the real disgrace was the Iranian Hostage incident. Here we were the strongest nation in the world, rendered helpless and incompetence to national honor as Iran held American hostages for 444 days.

Well, you prefer the US being the worlds policeman?
Maybe he gave the canal back to Panama in the first place, because it is in Panama (i don’t know the exact terms when it was built and for how long the US was “leasing” it)?
For the second: It was a decade of world terrorism. What we face today is different, but not more than in that times.
Why is your “national interest” and “national honour” the only measure for a good president? These two things are often reasons for starting wars, but nothing more!
