May he stay safe.

Thank him for me/us.

Hoping for the best, Thump. My eldest son just came back after a tour in the ME.

Thank y'all, and thank your son from us, FB. What branch is he in?.

USAF. He's a TSGT working with avionics- Comm and RADAR.

I'd salute him if I were military. Here's a virtual pat on the back.

I talked him into joining the AF mainly to get him a sense of direction and get him off the tit. He's been in about 11 years. I felt pretty bad when he got sent to the ME the first time.

“Iran is sitting on the threshold of nuclear weapons; it can build a bomb more quickly than at any point in its history,” said Kelsey Davenport, director for nonproliferation policy at the Arms Control Association.

“If Tehran makes the political decision to develop a nuclear arsenal, it can produce enough weapons-grade uranium for an explosive device in less than a week and enough for five or six weapons in a month.”

It's so interesting, and so vicious, and horrible, and so beautiful in so many different ways.

There is an enormous gap between being able to produce fissile material and a working bomb.
