Sunday

I still have not read anything about the cause of the collision of the tanker jets, or how an AWACS plane was blown in two. Was anyone on the AWACS plane? Was it hit by a drone or a missile? I was a crewember in AWACS back in the day. I'm just not satisfied with any of the reports. They don't add up for me. We did not have to fend of drone attacks back during Desert Storm. What was the defense strategy on the drones and missiles? I don't think Hogsbreath considered any defenses. It's so bad.
