    The Greek Airforce is painted with images of St. Michael the Archangel. And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels. And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Revelation 12:7-9

      … sad (as always, if true. One can do amazing things with software nowadays), The Archangels are being co-opted. Have the undersides of fighters become the modern equivalent of a belt buckle? (Gott mit uns) If so, then “Gott, hilf uns”. … and, If one is attacked by a weapon of war adorned with the image of an Archangel does this mean that Gott ist mit ihnen? I’m now wondering what Archangel image would say to the viewer Meine Ehre Heisst Treue? Children and their belt buck … er ah … toys … er ah … undersides of aircraft. Given the current situation of the Greeks one would think they would be pondering any one of their myriad of problems other than what images to paint on the undersides of their fighter aircraft. Oh well, I guess everyone needs a good distraction every now and then. Look! Squirrel! (say this phrase out loud in the voice of Boris Badenov to provide the right kind of jocularity to this post, in addition one can also say this out loud any time during the day when they find themselves in need of a quick self-distraction) Wouldn’t that phrase said in that accent be an excellent choice for an MK Ultra trigger?
      Question: If the rest of plane becomes “invisible” would the image of the archangel still be visible?
