So what were the 6 unarmed recce Tornados dropping?

Who said 6? A flight of two dropped 4 bombs and made gun runs on the ridgeline until their ammo was expended.

Are you like really surprised that the public gets fed baloney?

Other than "something happenend" almost none of this is correct.

Germany contributed 6 recce tornadoes from 2007...there you have it 6, the choice to send recce tornados was a concious decision in order to calm the German public against the idea of reprisal terrorist acts in Germany if they were dropping bombs.

If people like you are in charge of what they get fed then no.

You misjudge German public opinion. A majority of Germans are against the Afghanistan engagement of Germany because they believe German soldiers should not operate outside of Germany and should only be deployed in pure self defence in the strictest sense.

I just reflect what I read in the polls not my personal opinion.

You know, I was there and saw the whole thing. I know what our CCT guy told us.

Are you saying I could be wrong and the details are not correct?

Whatever way to look at it, German popular oppinion is against involvement in the conflict, the German goverment was under pressure from both sides.....after all just about everyone else in europe got stuck in.
