Is that parachute marking on the sides of those vehicles meant for aiming?

Indeed. I'm wondering how most of those other videos mentioned Kavkaz-center distributes (=terrorists themselves) are O.K by anyone's standards. Head choppings and so.Just a word of warning to others...some of those other videos are rather graphic. I certainly wouldnt want to be in Iraq in a humvee if I could avoid it.Maybe these links shouldn't be allowed, unless some credible news organization choses to show them for some anti-war reason... Dunno.

Finnish idjits tend to demand this each and every time. When will they learn?

If you are talking about mech heavy forces vs. light infantry, in depends entirely on territory.Do not kid yourself about the usefulness of light infantry vs a modern army.If engagement distances are only a few hundred meters at max, and usually much shorter, the mech heavy force will suffer considerable casualties, even if we wouldn't be talking about any FDF Jaeger Battalion v. A2-yellow scenario.

You honestly don't believe that only sovereing states should have the monopoly to resort to compulsion?(snips) My point isn't if Israel is using terror or not. My point is that in my opinion who is labeled as terrorist is more about who is against west and who isn't than who is using terroristic means and who not.Terrorism is terrorism, even if happens in Russia and against the Russian interests.
As long as parts of the western elite and electorate accept terrorism as a politically acceptable way of gaining influence (probably from the old memory, contrary to how things are today), the world is screwed. The most screwed are those hapless third world people, who have no hope for better tomorrow as long as violence continues for the violence's sake.
Terrorism hasn't got much to do with living conditions, even in the ME. More it has to do with those dictatorial regimes in the area (some supported by the US), and their willingness to stay in power. External enemies and instability helps a lot.
These terrorists are not "moral crusaders", just "client thugs" by certain external regimes, who prevent locals to live a normal and peaceful life in the area. 'Cause these normal people just might want elections and democracy next? Not just destruction of Israel...

Nevertheless, should I say: "bye bye Ericsson's profit margins!"
How lame of me...

Gawd!
Yet another Australian spotted!
Simon Beresford-Wylie is to chair a new joint venture entity between Nokia and Siemens worth approximately €25 billion.
Not that it matters me personally, but there are too many Australians on the news today.

Fecking Australians all over!
Like that Ogilvy fellow, who just stole the US Open.

Are you serious?

Something will be challenged on Sunday.
Not absolutely certain what that is. But I'm almost certain that it will be great. Absolutely fricking amazing!
To the ultimate victory! No holds barred. Etc. Etc. Etc.

Kurki-Suonio does the trick better...

This thread resembles a bit what Scientologists and other cults are doing...

Well, photons have both energy and momentum proportional to their frequency (or inversely proportional to their wavelength), not velocity.
And photons do have velocities below c in medium!
Check cherenkov radiation for clues...Let alone photons can effectively be stopped at rest or can exceed the speed of light by the clever scientists (if we speak about phase velocity).

Dunno how's things with completely fictional guys like "Tom of Finland" or "Sergei of Finland", but we are not completely unaware about electricity here.Even Finland???Granted, I'm not so sure about those far northern locations, but at least on the southern coast, where most of the Finns live, we have heard about the secret of electricity.

I think TV-crews should be modelled.
And peace activists.
None of the groups totally "civilian", so they shouldn't fall to BFC's blanket refusal to include non-combat units into the game.
Including "well-known" Finnish figures like Gary the Pine would be a great surprise. Or some others too.

Not very realistical take, or what do ya think?
Maybe you're more into RPGs or somefink?

I was once commenting a play of my friend, and the first thing that came out of my mouth was: "It was quite nice" ("ihan kiva" in Finnish).
The outburst I received as a "thank you very much, but could you piss off", made me think that artistic people (along with gnomes, elves or lepricons) don't like very much about "middle of the road" characterizations.
So there I was reading these mindless drivels and thinking, why not put my belief to a test?
To be honest, I'm a little bit disappointed. I expected more.
Well, well.
My maternal grandpa was a sergeant doing a deskjob at the home front. So no real action for him.
But my paternal grandpa was a true frontline soldier, and probably saw what's about. Saddly, he wasn't willing to tell anything about his experiences, apart from where he served.
The Great War, that's another matter, since Finland's right to participate was being denied by the jury (surely we all should know the difference between the ww2 and ww1?).
However, we managed to have our own competition, so we didn't felt that left out.
What comes to that, paternal side was neutral and maternal side was white. So there.

I think you are quite ordinary, Seanachai.
No ups or downs. Just an average man and so on.

The new Finnish winter snow camo (not the temperate woodland camo I posted earlier) is especially hard to detect using thermal night-vision systems (the best in the world, I presume).
Not on the topic either, but I just wanted to add my contribution.
