The long and short is about the same... put a donk behind a supersonic intake to "suck" the air through, and the intake will produce thrust.
Some of us will accept that the pressure distribution in the intake will be such that it'll produce thrust, others would like to see a diagram to better understand.
Personally I have not the slightest difficulty in accepting the facts, but I would love to see some diagrams to better get my mind round it
