South East all the way to the Pakistani border,East to the Turkmenistan
Western border.(Overfly Turkey, Boy will they ever scream about that!)
We can help ALL the fundamentalists begin to live in the Ninth century

So, you think they are good or not?

Your statement is a double negative, I think.

Why would you think that? I said Russian pilots are not incompetent.

You followed it with "That is a gross understatement".

Sorry, but I was not sure what you meant.
