The topic of last months debate was Everything's Fine. It was a draw. The audience made equal noise for and against the notion that Everything is Fine, giving me no resolve and I remain in a confused state of panic in not knowing.
There is so much I just don't understand.
"The Joint Strike Fighter brings persistent stealth over the battlefield for the first time, and will enhance the lethality and survivability of American and allied combat, air, sea and ground forces." Gen John Jumper USAF Chief of Staff.....sounds cool .but what about Give Peace a Chance, that was cool wasn't it
"The F35A (commonly known as the Joint Strike Fighter) is the most suitable aircraft for Australia's future air combat and strike needs to replace the aging F/A-18/B Hornets"RAAF...aviation engineering and technology is very cool. I've watched the video's, been to the air shows, they are beautiful, insect like, faster than sound, astounding very cool in their display but ..... I am also haunted by images of skinless babies, the knowledge that with all our power and triumph we are incarcerating people fleeing from war and perpetuating trauma and seemingly doing nothing to prevent atrocities.
I'm powerless and scared. But hey....we're the good guys right.....and F-35A Joint Strike Fighter Jets are way cool....are they? I don't know...I don't know anything...clearly....so come to this debate and be enlightened with me.....As usual Farouk's very own Superchicken Tanja will be preparing a custom made cocktail for the occasion
Participating comedians to be announced shortly.
Happy Mothers day.
