I'm sure I've read somewhere that it can take a hell of a beating too and can be kept in the air on one, partially damaged engine.
Sure they can take cannon shells and lose a huge % of wing as well. The pilots sit in some ultra strong bulletproof, explosion resistant tub i think.

They are extremely durable. Many liken it to a tank with wings.

No.

We have to show by example how civilisation works. They are a cul de sac, but it is a painful one in the meantime.

Its not going to end well for these nutters. Look at Gaddafi's and Sadam's demise.

What's such a pity is the people who get killed for their ego's and bizarre ideologies.

Well it seems these guys have an unlimited supply of fighters flying in from all over the globe to get involved, I don't think we have witnessed anything quite like this before. If we try and stop them then it increases the risk of incidents happening at home.
