The U.S. Air Force said a U.S. military plane did not intentionally draw a dick in the skywith the tip pointed directly at a Russian base.
Last week, a KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft flew a penis-shaped flight path after taking off in Cyprus and then idling over the Mediterranean toward Tartus, a coastal city in Syria where Russia has a naval base, according to the popular flight tracker Flightradar24.
What the Air Force calls a simple cock up serves as a reminder of Russias ongoing violent assault against Ukraine, and the U.S. opposition to it.
At this time, we do not believe the crew acted inappropriately, an Air Force spokesperson said, adding that the aircraft was flying a refuelling orbit consistent with requirements that met the needs of receiver aircraft.

"It was apparently just a cock up." This apparently happened in early November but DAMN!! HI-LARRY-US!
I screamed when I read this because even though war is always horrible & this unnecessary bullshit chockful of abominations & war crimes, the Ukrainians, in addition to being bad asses & to pootin's dismay, SEEMINGLY UNBEATABLE, find ever creative ways of telling Russia exactly what they think about pootie-poo's colonial ambitions.

(26,331 posts)According to Merriam-Webster-Webster on-line, this is a British phrase. Seems odd that the US Air Force would use that terminology.
