How could the RPG made more powerfull?
SomaliaOnline-President replied to Xassan Nasra Allah's topic in Politics
Originally posted by Xassan Nasra Allah: it amazes me that nowadays, the RPG is the key weapon of choice for the iraqi fighters. RPG, as you all know stands for rocket propelled grenades aka baazuka. the iraqis are using RPG 7 which is a soviet made model. i doubt if the soveits provided their latest models tothe iraqis, nevertheless, the RPGs have proved effective in destroying bradleys, and humvee and other vehicles, but failed to destroy the Abrams tanks, which are heavily armored. my question to the Nomad Metalurgical engineers, is how could the RPG rounds made highly xblosive and armor peircing? any ideas. Hi XNA RPG's werent' designed to take out tanks, or other heavily armored vehicles at first place. To take out those heavily armored American tanks, you'd need nothing less than an anti-tank missile. Anti-Tank weopons have their own different category in warfare. -

If North Korea crossed into the DMZ in full scale right this MOMENT and started attacking SK, and American position. They'd prolly be pushed back, but not without taking great toll on the American war against Iraq. The 200k military personnel in Iraqi will have to be shifted away from Iraq to fight the Nk's. They will have total break down on plans for Iraq. It will also give the Iraqis much needed break.

Yea, specially when they have all these computer animated 3D pictures showing enemy and friendly positions over the Iraqi map. I think thats one of the reasons why the sec of defense Rumsfeld didnt' want CNN, and the other news org showing the capture, and the dead corps of American military. -

From all the appearances and developments, it looks like this war could last well into the next month or even longer than that.

Iran to be US next target: CIA Report
SomaliaOnline-President replied to Libaax-Sankataabte's topic in Politics
Originally posted by Gediid: Look at it this way.The US now has Afganistan which borders Iran on the East and soon Iraq which is on the West.Iran is sandwiched and troops can literally pour in from both fronts plus of course the Arabian Sea.A strategic plan indeed hey. Hi Gediid. But do you really think the battle hardened Mullahs would just rollover and play dead in the face of the great Satan? -
Hi Bach. You are forgetting about South Korea's well armed 600,000 unit - which i think is more than a match for the poorly equipped North Korean Units. But one thing is true though, if a war breaks out in the Korea's, this would create a logistical nightmare for the US military who mostly have all their gear deployed in the gulf.

Technology and Intelligence gathering
SomaliaOnline-President replied to QUANTUM LEAP's topic in Developement | Projects
Hi Shaqsi The US may have all kinda of sophisticated spying networks to collect intel- but its alot more harder, and takes much needed man hour to decipher everything that they collected from everyone. This spying thingy, only serves one purpose and thats to scare people into thinking they are being watched. -

CAMP AS SAYLIYAH, QATAR -- The first sound of the coming war may be the tapping of a keyboard. In a long, narrow room crammed with video monitors and laptop computers, U.S.-led forces will appear on plasma screens in blue and green. The Iraqis will be colored red. Their movements will be followed on banks of computer terminals connected by fiber-optic cables and satellites to battlefield communications sites. A special e-mail system will be the primary means of communication. This is the nerve center of U.S. Central Command's forward headquarters near Doha, Qatar, just beyond the reach of Saddam Hussein's missiles. There's never been anything quite like it. The high-tech Joint Operations Center represents the U.S. military's first totally integrated forward command post. If President Bush orders an attack, this center hidden inside a warehouse in the camp was designed to provide commanders from the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines with a seamless electronic picture of every plane, ship and tank involved in the fight. "What we do is maintain situational awareness of everything that's going on in the war theater," said Navy Cmdr. Mike Wilson, one of the center's chief operating officers. Wilson, a 43-year-old reservist who flies for Federal Express in civilian life, is among those who will orchestrate the flow of information. "Our whole focus is to coordinate and communicate down through all the components, to make life easier for them, to reduce the fog of war," he said. Replica From this windowless perch of tan carpeting and plastic chairs, Gen. Tommy Franks could direct the allied attack in Iraq and track its progress, just as if he were back at his headquarters at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Fla., or in an airborne command post. Although he has visited As Sayliyah in recent weeks, Franks has declined to say publicly which command post will be the primary nerve center of the war. "What we have here is a replica of what we have in Tampa," said Air Force Capt. Danielle Burrows, a spokeswoman for the forward base at As Sayliyah. "But he can direct the war from just about anyplace he is." The 262-acre base at As Sayliyah provides not only military options but political ones. Unlike the war in Afghanistan, which Franks directed from Florida, this state-of-the-art facility puts him and his commanders in the vicinity of the battle -- leading from the front -- but with all the accoutrements of the rear headquarters. Along with its companion air base -- Al Udeid -- As Sayliyah has played an increasingly important role for the U.S. military in the Gulf since the last war with Iraq, which Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf ran out of neighboring Saudi Arabia. In recent years, as the Saudis have grown increasingly squeamish about domestic anti-U.S. sentiment, the Qatari government has allowed the U.S. Army to stockpile combat equipment and communication gear at As Sayliyah -- along with fighter jets at Al Udeid. With a runway nearly 15,000 feet long, Al Udeid is expected to provide substantial air muscle in the campaign. But As Sayliyah will provide the brains. War by e-mail Viewed from the litter-strewn industrial park that surrounds it, As Sayliyah looks more like a self-storage complex than a military compound. Rows of drab warehouses house tents where soldiers set up housekeeping and go about their chores. Nearly everybody's job supports the fenced-off, barbed-wire-protected command post at the heart of the base. There, in a 60-by-22-foot room, war will be reduced to e-mail, video-conferencing, computer graphics and electronic maps. The 1,000-strong garrison of U.S., British, Canadian and Australian commanders will unfold few paper maps and probably never see a flesh-and-blood enemy. Instead, about 50 commanders huddled in the low-ceiling room will receive "real time" information from the field, aided by Global Positioning Satellites, classified computer networks, phones, radio tracking devices and Predator flight video. They also will get CNN. If it all has the look and feel of a video game, commanders say they are still close enough to the war to get a feel for the action. "There's a tension between monitoring the battlefield electronically and actually being in the field talking to officers," said British Maj. Peter Caddick-Adams, a military historian. "We're a step removed, but close enough to unruffle any feathers." No one is forgetting that the war will be fought by real soldiers, Marines, sailors and aviators -- all converging on the uncertain streets of Baghdad. "We have great confidence in the guys out there, in cockpits and on the ground," Wilson said. "That's where it all happens." But the beginning of the battle, if it comes, will probably be tapped out in this cramped room -- or one just like it in Tampa or on the airborne command anywhere in the world. "It's war-launch by keystroke," Caddick-Adams said. "Someone, somewhere, will type something that will result in an order."

SIX unidentified armed Americans have apprehended a presumed Yemeni national No American could live or walk safely in Somalia, let alone detain anyone in Xamar. Its all being played out for the American public that their government is fighting Al Qaeda as well as Saddam. Its funny story though.

if you were Saddam, how would you defend baghdad
SomaliaOnline-President replied to Xassan Nasra Allah's topic in Politics
Originally posted by qatari_1979: how saddam well run his game good 1? 200 000 troops in baghdad and fight intel the death for it. From what i heard, he has around 60k of the elite republican GUARDS taking positions in, and around the city of baghdad. I think the whole armed Iraqi military numbers around 400,000. Also posted by qatari_1979: 100 000 trops in south of the country to fight there near kuwait border and saudi arabia. 100 000 troops in the north to fight any troops of usa comes from turkey and fight intel the death I think he should withdrawl all his army along the country's border, and into Baghdad. If you remember the first Gulf War, almost all of them surrendered after 2wks into the war. There is talk among the American commanders that those 100k along the border are already preparing to surrender. Repositioning them in the city is i think his best choice in this war - if he is to inflict heavy casualties on the Americans. lanch scud misslie aginst isreil about 100 missle lanch 20 or 30 aginst saudi arabia and 200 missle aginst kuwait and 10 or 20 aginst turkey if they help bush and blir. Sxb, the Americans are already looking for the launching vehicles and are destroying it before it even takes off the ground. He can do the same to his missiles - reposition them in Baghdad, and fire on the comming Americans. -
If You Had 48 hours to live what would you do?
SomaliaOnline-President replied to Saddam's topic in General
LoL. Saddam. Sxb, all those double look-alikes aint working? How about the $10 billion sitting in off shore accounts? -
God for bidden but I think the whole Arab countries will be under western colonization for at least the next 2 decades coming. Yea, thats what alot of people think - but if you REALLY think about it, its impossible. This Iraqi war alone is costing America close to ONE TRILLION dollars, just try imagining how much it will cost the Americans to try and invade 300 million people spreaded in over 20 countries.
