This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Because there had never been a coup with a country that has an air force

What was the Arab Spring?

Tunisa has 150+ aircraft
Libya 100+
Egypt 1000+
Yemen 175+

All 4 countries deposed their rulers

edit: it appears I have been whooshed

Huh?

Are you suuuuuure about that?

I'm pretty sure that most coups involve the military.

As far as civil wars go, oh, there's at least one going on right now in Myanmar, and the gov't def. has an air force there.
