No no no. I'm saying the Russian infantry soldiers that are in Georgia have the same amount of power that the American infantrymen have in Iraq. They were just doing what they were told to do, and they swore to their leadership that they would do it. Its bad when they die. Some people blame some poor soldier for what he did in Iraq. But it was not his decision to be there. I'm sure that he would much rather be home with his family, not out getting shot at.

I just flew with one of our main pilot recruiters. He said Comair has pretty much been cut off from spending anything on recruiting. That's surprising that they are there.

Because I didn't see the Russians go before the UN 15 times.

Yea the US went in front of the UN big deal...the US disregarded what the other nations were saying and went ahead with a sham of a war.

Oh really? Like the Brits who said Saddam went to Africa to buy yellow cake uranium? Because we just shipped 100 tons of yellow cake uranium from Iraq to Canada to be destroyed.

And it is a big deal to go before the security council 15 times without and closeure.

So you're saying the Russians are justified in going into Georgia? Were they justified when they poisened the president of the Ukraine as well?

Or how about the ex-KGB spy who got a little uranium juice with his sushi in London....

Please stop comparing the United States to Mother Russia.

Woah buddy......this is a Comair updates thread. Not an "I disagree with the war" thread. Take your voodoo somewhere else...

Speaking of Comair updates. Anybody heard the rumor of a JFK 70/90 base opening up to compensate for the Freedom domecile?

The JFK 70/90 base seems to have been a rumor for quite some time. The Freedumb flying I guess is just more fuel to that rumor.

From what ive heard around the jfk crew room, the word is 65 CAs/FO. A CRJ700/900 is suppose to open around November/December once the complete transfer for the 7 freedom planes is complete and are incorporated into the schedule and 70/90 trips are built from jfk. again just rumors.
