I'm sure he has his employees working on it:

It's just so hard to get good help these days!

They are geo-political policy wonk types-mostly; technically very incompetent  when it comes to nuts and bolts.

I have little respect for their views outside their limited POLITICAL  area or PoV, and as most of them couldn't figure out the technical details of how to  actually enforce disarmament or how to legally enforce agreements, I really have little respect for their opinions in that arena as well.

In effect, we are discussing mainly LAWYERs, academics, and social science professors  Just the kind of defense experts to whom I would listen.

Yeah, right.
This is the type of client for whom poseur1 claims to consult and with whom he associates?

ROTFLMAO

The only defense consulting Borat has ever done is being a poster on the French air-defense.net forum.  He made the identical claims there as well, that he was some kind of artillery officer, then became an executive in a defense firm, and now consults with the French ministry of defense. 


Nobody there believed him either, and he was ultimately banned for making racist / antisemitic comments and for disparaging the French military (laughing about the incompetence of troops deployed in the field at the time).  It has to be said that he was more polite there, mostly because unlike SP it is a moderated forum and they take their rules seriously.

He still lurks there today, obviously, because most of the "news" posts you see from him on this site (e.g. the "Rafale stealth demonstrator" and the HA 100 radar) are from posts that others made on that forum a few hours earlier.

LOL.  I stand by what I posted.  The record is clear and obvious, French Stratege here is Stratege there.  You say the same things, and you describe yourself in the same ways.

I have been consistently nothing but polite and tolerant of you in spite incessant personal attacks.  Meanwhile, you have called me a "moron", "incompetent", "amateur", "not an engineer", "unable to read", etc, more times than I can count.  You excuse this rude and pompous behavior by claiming that we are "not your peers" because you are some kind of consultant.  That is utter BS, and your activities on other boards prove it.

I  posted nothing but facts supported by easily available evidence in my previous post on this thread.  If you don't like people looking up what you have written in the past and bringing it back up to expose you, then be more careful of what you write.
