Air Show 2001 - GoFuckYourself.com

Citizens of Afghanistan are reportedly looking forward with great anticipation to reports of an international air show to be held in the skies over their nation.

An unnamed official informed us that "Now the rest of the world will look upon our beloved city with great honor just as they do
Farnborough,England and Paris, France", referring to the sites of two other famous
international air shows.

The exact date and time of the upcoming Kabul International Air Show has not yet been announced. It is believed that event organizers feel that such an announcement would detract from the fun of the celebration by,"spoiling the surprise".

Unlike most air shows the Kabul Air Show will feature almost no static ground displays but will have an unusually high number of aerial
demonstrations and fly-bys. "We are most pleased by this feature of our air
show. Instead of a lot of different kinds of airplanes just sitting around on the tarmac, the aircraft attending our show will actually be up in the air demonstrating what they do best!" we were told.

Participation will probably be heaviest by aircraft of the United States Air Force and Marine Corps. Including appearances by F-15's, F-16's, F-18's, A-10's, B-52's and Apache helicopters. It is rumored that
opening ceremonies will feature a tomahawk-cruise fireworks display. A few
B-2's, and F-117A's may also help out in some unseen capacity.

Several other countries have expressed an interest in sending representatives. These include all nineteen nations in the NATO alliance as well as Australia. The excitement generated for this gala event has even
prompted the Israeli Air Force to apply for participation.

Of course, no one is more excited than the Afghan people themselves.Great numbers of them are in the streets of Kabul looking constantly heavenward in gratitude for the historic event, which will soon take place in their skies.

It has been observed that some are so concerned about missing the show that
even as they bow to the East they keep snatching worried glances towards
the West. Thousands, in fact, have been seen leaving the city and fleeing to the mountains carrying food and blankets - obviously anxious to get a good vantage point for the air show, and to make a picnic of it.

They should watch out for the wheat bails falling on their way out.

It's my feelings that we should save our money and not drop 2million dollar bombs.

Instead, we should throw out wheat bags without chutes. This would damage anything they fell on plus... the people could then gather up the wheat, to eat.
