"Cover their faces with shame so that men will seek your name, O Lord" (Psalm 83:16)
I'm not sure how this picture fits this Psalm. Are you criticizing America or what?

During the 2nd Gulf War, the Iraqi Air Force buried a number of its MiG-25 and SU-25 planes in the desert next to an airfield.
In 2003, The Americans discovered a number of Mig-25 Foxbat fighters and SU-25 Frog Foot fighter-bombers buried in the desert next to the to the Al-Taqqadum airfield near Baghdad, Iraq. The aircraft had been stripped of their wings and completely covered with sand. Despite their time under the desert, the aircraft were in decent shape and could have been returned to service with minimal maintenance. Instead, the aircraft were found by coalition forces and two Mig-25s were placed in the belly of a C-5 Galaxy cargo plane and returned to the USA for examination.
