C0llynzO2:
They played ''peace keeping'' roles not combat roles in those operations, and they were dealing with ''rebels'' not ''insurgents'' or terrorists, they also collaborated with international forces.
A lot of differences, now go and do your homework!

When fiscal times are tight, some defense contractors load up on lobbyists and tout all the work they’ve spread around the country. Others have a different approach: make a cheaper fighter jet. That’s the thinking behind the new Scorpion, a “versatile Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR)/Strike aircraft platform,” unveiled today by Textron AirLand, a joint venture between Textron (TXT) and AirLand Enterprises.

“The Scorpion is designed to accommodate the increasingly stringent budget constraints of the U.S. Department of Defense and U.S. partner nations,” the companies said today in a news release. No word on the sticker price; Textron began developing the jet on spec in January 2012 and hopes also to sell it abroad. The Rhode Island company builds Bell helicopters, Cessna business jets and golf carts, too.

Textron may have found a market niche here: Lockheed Martin’s (LMT) F-22 Raptor fighter and F-35 Joint Strike Fighter have caused Uncle Sam budget heartburn for years. The latter plane, for example, is the Pentagon’s largest weapons program—and is approaching a total cost of $400 billion.

evegran: Honestly, I don't enjoy people esp Nigerians mocking the first lady. She's an illiterate? So? Her husband loves her and that's all that should matter. Okay fine, as a first lady who's gonna be involved in public speaking - I'd rather she takes professional classes in english. But she thinks other wise, its her life. We should totally learn to stop mocking her, I just don't find the jokes funny.

If you take a job and you find you do not have the competence and or capacity to deliver it, you keep quite.

Proverbs 17:28English Standard Version (ESV)

28 Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise;
when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent.


Patience is far from the most educated of 1st Lady Nigeria has had but even they chose to respect their husbands, the nation and themselves by keeping quite.

Its nobody's fault but her own her own antics right in the public domain have brought not only her to ridicule but the whole nation.
