I'm Phillip and I enjoy adding images of Jack's weapons, as well as American military, CTU, FBI, Customs, and Secret Service personnel.

= About me = Massive 24 fan and love this wiki. Most of my edits are including pics on military/CTU/FBI personnel and Jack's weapons. I live in a Mobile Underground Detention and Detainment facility in Saugus, a secure, undisclosed(well, it's at 21911 Kipling Avenue) location guarded by Mark DeSalvo. I'm a native German, but live in America; it may interest you to know that "Bauer" means "farmer" in German.

= Me and 24 =

I had seen 24 on commercials and stuff, but I thought it was just another TV show. Due to my reputation as a military history buff and special operations forces enthusiast, my eighth-grade history teacher recommended it.I first saw 24 as the last couple of episodes of Season 8 on Hulu, but it was annoying as hell, since it was only the last six episodes and I had NO idea what was going on. That was in summer 2010, when I was 15.Since then, I've seen the first two seasons. Best show ever.A military history buff and special operations forces enthusiast, I was disappointed by the quality and quantity of pics on my favorite pages,as seen below. I don't know how to get screenshots, so most of my pics are from http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/24. I didn't know crap about posting pics and the image policy, so I annoyed lots of professional editors(Acer4666, Blue Rook, and Thief12, a.k.a. the Category Police) and they annoyed me.

= Favorite Characters on 24 =

He sure got a lot done from a yacht. He and Crimson Jihad sure got lots of stuff done in 24 hours. Pretty sharp guy, convincing arguments that put him at odds with David Palmer's rhetorical idealism Oh, yeah, that's what that guy's name was. All-around badass. Seems to be a conservative to most liberal critics of 24, but the show cleverly portrays him as a sort of gray area in that respect. Also, he has a badass voice, and plays Kiefer Sutherland in real life.Imagine, if you will, that Jack is easily over-powered by a single bad guy, thrown down the stairs and cracks a rib. Sure, and a bears sh*ts in the bathroom and the ocean holds back New Orleans. Jack might be immune to Kryptonyte, but he is a lame duck for 24's dumb-as* screen writers, who love to trip up his best-laid plans. Very sharp guy, excellent job defusing the Ferralgamo scandal as well as the "warmongers" in his Cabinet. He's just funny. Seemed like an obstructive, humorless bureaucrat in the beginning of Season 1, but that's not really true. Sharp, serious guy. Whispers "Yeah" and "Allright" a lot.
 * Max
 * Habib Marwan
 * Mike Novick
 * Jack Bauer.
 * David Palmer.
 * MasonBadass.jpge Mason.

= Least Favorite characters on 24 = She's just annoying, and always scheming...
 * Sherry Palmer

= Non-belivable, annoying and unrealistic things about 24 =
 * I don't like how the show is so willing to portray the Russians and Chinese as bad guys but whenever some Middle Eastern country is implicated in terrorism, it is never given a name.But I suppose it is a pretty politically charged show to some people, so I guess the screenwriters don't want to inflame any sensitivities.
 * What kind of name is Kaukistan? Apparently, Bierko and his seperatists are from this country, which is a breeding ground for anti-Russian terrorists. Why couldn't the screenwriters stick with Chechnya? Would have made perfect sense...
 * Let's be honest, Counter Terrorist Unit is a pretty dumb, unrealistic name for a federal agency. 24 could have very easily just made Jack and all other CTU personnel FBI agents. It would have worked out nicely.
 * If CTU is a domestic unit, what the hell is Marcus Holt doing within the Chinese government? That would be a CIA operation. Besides, despite what Hollywood thinks, a CIA "agent" is a foreign national operating for the CIA against a foreign government.Of course Holt would be accused of being a spy; he's a white dude in China.
 * Season 5: US government implicated in terrorist attacks. WHY do they do this? To increase the value of their oil interests. Yeah, pretty realistic, right? I know some say that could happen, but I'm afraid I will have to label you a crazy conspiracy theorist.
 * Mitch Anderson. Yeah, so, apparently, some Turkish jihadists manage to convince an oath-bound American air force officer to shoot down Air Force One.Oh, well, that could happen in real life, right...?
 * Anderson flies a stealth bomber that can fire air-to-air missiles. Yeah, right.
 * Iran is the world's most active state sponsor of terrorism and enjoys sticking it to the Great Satan, America. It would have been pretty cool if the screenwriters could have come up with a plot in which Iran's tools (Revolutionary Guard, Quods Force, Hezbollah, or Hamas) try to attack America to be foiled by Jack Bauer.
 * 24 should have included the National Security Council's national coordinator for security, infrastructure protection, and counterterrorism, as well as a more active National Security Advisor.
 * Sometimes, 24 has sloppy plots, 2D characters, over-the-top narrative and a feeling of going through the motions.By its eighth season, it got kind of more like science fiction than drama. How do Marwan's terrorists crack the codes of the nuclear football and almost nuke L.A.? Anyway, Jack solves these problems by crossing vast expanses of L.A., D.C., or New York in a few minutes, never having to shit, piss, eat, or drink. Also, the countless conspirators of 24 endlessly discuss their conspiracies, in specific language, over cell-phones! In the final two episodes of season 8, Jack kills five Russian bodyguards with single shots. Whenever they fire, they miss. Plus lots of shots were fired in a fancy hotel and the NYPD does nothing. Also, the UN Secretary General, at the treaty signing, says, "By signing, you commit your prospective countries to abide by the terms therein." In the U.S. treaties only acquire force once ratified by the Senate.
 * The government employs traitors and moles exclusively—like a hiring requirement.
 * Terrorists always set up their HQs within a two-hour drive of CTU Headquarters.
 * Chloe's code-cracking technique:pressing ten keys.
 * And of course, when does anyone eat, drink, or go to the bathroom?People get around L.A., Washington D.C., and New York pretty quickly.

Anyway...thanks for listening to my whining, er, comments.
