Skipped lunch?

Its all bull****. Some of the said planes have been moved in to storage, the others were blown up.

Weren't most of the planes at Tripoli Airport badly damaged over the past few weeks?

crockholm

Wait, what's this about Kim/Kimye again? 2lbs. huh? I sure hope the Daily Mail have Pictures accompanying this news.

L1011

Missing by virtue of being blown up. Didn't have the range to make it to the US like Fox believed anyway, mostly old 727s and small regional jets

Would they not be picked up by tracking systems before they were in a position to do any damage anyway?

I just hope that this group of "Masked Men" have plenty of engineers, pilots and fuel.

In the unlikely event that they do, they'd be lucky to make it 10 feet out of Libyan airspace.

They'd be better off discussing it with the insurance companies over a payoff to the owners of the aircraft.

Remember a certain malysian aircraft that vanished to a certain degree

I'm pretty sure the US and Europeans are keeping an eye on everything taking off in Libya in the moment, whether "missing" or not and would take appropriate action if anyone goes for an unauthorised jaunt in a plane from the area.

"Al Jazeera reported that the planes are being held by a group called the Masked Men Brigade, and it plans to use them in terror attacks."

Possibly because The West played a very significant role, in creating the shítfest that is now Libya.

No, no, no, no, Libya was a massive success and they didn't even have to put 'boots on the ground'. :rolleyes:

Hope they have Liberty Hall on their list lying traitors that are there.

Dont get me started, I saw an issue of The Sun today. The front page really pissed me off, half of it with a picture the recent Isis victim before he was beheaded the other with that kardashion one getting her tits out or something.

This will cause chaos for all countries.

How long before we see the end of this.

I think all planes that cannot be identified will be shot down.

September 11 is not far away.

Winter is coming.

Who doesn't notice 11 commercial jetliners missing?

Was it like suddenly someone in the airport said after the first one or two didn't return say "Hmmmm, something isn't quite right around here. I feel like I'm missing something......*starts looking for car keys*"

brandnewaward

not missing......just badly damaged in the fighting at the airport.

ceadaoin.

There was already a thread about this earlier

Does anyone think there is something to worry about this Sept 11, 13 is a unlucky number and it has been 13 years since 2001.

Scuid Mhór

Looks like the article is just media sensationalism.

Me too

There are three socks missing in the washroom. Don't see anyone starting two threads about that..

I have a black cat with the number 13 underneath it tattooed on my leg, so far that leg has been very lucky :-)

OK, how about starting a 9/11 watch on tall buildings, let's set up camcorders to keep a 24 hour vigil.
