Kris Osborn, National Interest: The Army Is Developing the Gear to Win a Land War Against Russia or China

Dropping from the sky.

(Washington, D.C.) If a large mechanized unit of armored ground forces were “closing” with an enemy amid heavy artillery and cannon fire - but did not have overhead aircraft or satellite surveillance while transiting rigorous terrain - how could they fully discern the source of incoming fire? How might they pursue the safest and most lethal method of attack?

This kind of scenario represents one of many contingencies now informing the Army’s development of a new Infantry Squad Vehicle (ISV), a super high-speed, maneuverable lightweight vehicle being engineered to perform a wide sphere of combat missions; these include high-speed straight-on attacks, forward operating reconnaissance or scout units, coordinated air-dropped ground assault and multiple entry point integrated operations.

70% of Spain's prison population are Muslims> Now that's a lot of vibrant enrichment.

Thank you libtards, you miserable stupid MoFo's.

"Estimating the percentages of Muslims in prisons across Europe is not simple. In some cases, such as Sweden, collecting such data is illegal."

If you cannot collect proper information, the drooling liberal will say you have no proof. The drooler will prevent you gathering stats so as to protect their asinine policies.

Of the 6+ million prisoners in prisons in the USA roughly 9% are Muslim and interesting also is the following on conversion to other religions while in prison.

Dear Bob, the wastrel,

People, who follow Islam and Jihad, already know this. You seem to get off, when things go bad for western society. Sour Grapes? You don't measure up to your father or grandfather?

Are you a coward?

"Spain: Single Algerian Migrant Arrested 14 Times in 11 Weeks"

"Despite being arrested 14 times, the teen remains free in the city until his next potential arrest and is just one of the 90 percent of cases for robbery, violence and intimidation this year in Barcelona where judges have decided not to hand down prison sentences, despite requests from prosecutors.

The second most prolific offender, arrested eleven times for various crimes including violence and drug trafficking, is also a migrant, a 28-year-old born in Morocco."

Liberal judges and libtards will fuck you over every time.

It is what they do. It is all they do.
