And there were other indicators, too, besides digging the hole. There was a guy swimming across a canal with this wire, and the wires are used to detonate the bomb.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Unidentified Man #1: I have two guys on the west side of the cow buoys(ph) running wires across the canal to the west side, where a (unintelligible) an IED the other day. So, they're watching them right now.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">BOWMAN: There were a couple of guys keeping watch and stopping traffic.

So what did they do?</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >BOWMAN: Well, they felt comfortable. They had all the indicators that these guys were insurgents planting a bomb. So they thought about using a machine gun to shoot these guys. There was another combat outpost not too far away. The problem was there was a compound of houses between where the Marines were with their machine gun and the guys planting the bomb.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >So then they decided to bring in the helicopters and use the machines guns and the helicopters to shoot these guys. As the helicopters came in, these guys look up in the air and start walking away. One of the guys was carrying a yellow jug - and that's become the icon of the roadside bomb. They mix fertilizer and diesel fuel in this, and that becomes a part of the bomb. And then we saw one of these guys throw this jug into a haystack.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Unidentified Man #2: <span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">And hiding the jug into the hay pile right now, and then are walking near the open field, so just wait until�</span></span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >BOWMAN: And they were gone. It was all over. They could no longer shoot at them.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >MONTAGNE: So why didn't they shoot at them?</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >BOWMAN: Well, they thought that they were still too close to this compound of houses to allow these helicopters to use their machine guns to shoot, so they decided against it.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >MONTAGNE: So, in being very, very careful about shooting at what they absolutely believed to be insurgents, they ended up, in effect, losing these guys. How did that make them feel?</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >BOWMAN: Well, they weren't happy at all. And some of them stormed out of this command center. And we talked with one of them afterwards. This is Lieutenant James Wendy(ph).</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >Lieutenant JAMES WENDY (U.S. Marines): There's no way that anyone other than the enemy would've been injured.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >BOWMAN: So, why weren't you allowed to shoot?</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >Lt. WENDY: Honestly, I don't know. I'd like to say I wish we could play by the big boy rules, you know, but, you know, it's just the way it is. And if I had known how frustrating it'd be and was able to better prepare myself for that mentally, I think that maybe I would've been better off.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">MONTAGNE: What about the military leaders? Is it reaching the top? Are they hearing these complaints about these rules of engagement that are so restrictive?</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">BOWMAN: You know, they are hearing these complaints. And I had a few minutes this week with their overall commander, General McChrystal, and I told him the same story, Renee, I told you. And I asked him about the rules of engagement. Here's what he had to say:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">General STANLEY MCCHRYSTAL (U.S. Commander, Afghanistan): I've been at this a long time now, since 9/11, and there were a tremendous number of times when I've seen activities done, which, on the surface of what was seen, looks exactly one way, looks completely convincing. And then in the aftermath, <span style="font-weight: bold;">what you saw was incomplete. In fact, what we find is civilian casualties who are unarmed civilians.</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >I think when we err on the side of maturity and caution, there is a cost. And I know that we're asking an extraordinary amount from them to operate with such restraint and self-discipline, but I think it's how we win the war.</span></p></ul></span><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Huh. General <del>McBetrayus</del> McChrystal...Barry's hand-picked man to <del>lose</del> win the war.<br /><br /></span></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtix0HE6-HUwqmDtKkiU3RFxdoHZN7b-1l7wF_UAlcGC4qyhyphenhyphen2KZakXnnRLOiJVQFd3EpMSM6_XK5PtrtyFl7kjvinJiTZcnMryag6FD5uy3EUCETsC0xn5ZO7u77SsDVrQJecPQ/s400/general-obama-patton_DRAKE.jpg" /></span></span><br /></div><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">No one really knows what Pbama wants to do in Afghanistan. He's set no benchmarks, other than a withdraw date that is about as permanent as Nanny Pelosi's botox. From the </span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: times new roman;" href="http://www.slate.com/id/2237100/" target="_blank">hardly Right of Center Slate</a><span style="font-family:times new roman;">: </span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><ul><p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Since his inauguration, Barack Obama has tripled the number of troops fighting in Afghanistan. After announcing the latest surge of 30,000 new soldiers in a speech at West Point, it is clear that he is a president actively prosecuting a war, not merely tending to one that was left to him.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">[...]</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">According to his speech, <span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">Obama is escalating while retreating, adding more troops while also setting a date for their departure. Obama said he was putting pressure on the Afghan government, but he didn't suggest how. Some of the blurring was by design. He smudged the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan, explaining that while he was sending troops to Afghanistan, the struggle was now more regional than it was when the war started eight years ago.</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">The president's critics will complain about the 18-month deadline Obama set for starting the troop withdrawal. The president says he set a deadline to focus the minds of our partners in Afghanistan, but he also said the departure decision would be based on the recommendations of his field commanders. This is a version of the debate we had during the presidential campaign, when Obama set a 16-month deadline for withdrawal from Iraq. His advisers will no doubt admit—as they did during the campaign—that if military advisers say a withdrawal from Afghanistan in 18 months is inadvisable, then the troops won't leave. </span>His Republican critics will also presumably agree, as John McCain did during the campaign, that if the commanders say it's OK to start leaving in 18 months, then that's just fine with them.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >Obama insisted that his deadline-that-isn't-a-deadline would put pressure on the Afghan government. "The absence of a time frame for transition would deny us any sense of urgency in working with the Afghan government. It must be clear that Afghans will have to take responsibility for their security and that America has no interest in fighting an endless war in Afghanistan."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >But Obama said nothing in the speech that put actual pressure on the government.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">[...]</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">Obama's tone was methodical and emotionless. He often sounded like a reluctant warrior. </span>He told the West Point students about signing condolence letters and greeting coffins arriving at Dover. <span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">"As your commander in chief, I owe you a mission that is clearly defined, and worthy of your service," said Obama.</span> There were repeated references in the speech to the honor of their service.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">The president said twice that he didn't take his decision "lightly." This seemed like an obvious shot at Dick Cheney and other critics who had complained that he had taken too long to make his final decision. (On the day of the speech, the former vice president claimed that Obama had shown "weakness.") <span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">Obama also spent considerable time reminding his audience about the troubled history of the Afghan war since the attacks of 9/11,</span> implying that if Bush and Cheney had taken a little more time during the first seven years of the war, there would be no need for him to be giving the speech—or sending more troops into danger.</span></p></ul></span></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjds1wy-QL64XUU35dwKPnqjIxVqHNuBkWqGyL-eMkkqvKX8MArNWCbhz25v9gG38BuYfxxDY_LvaDipwNC4TaijyggCWhpk1va4DB2ftG1tC03RFHtRA1h7CCKfnUVVA8P-TkjzA/s400/obama-coward-never-served.jpg" /></span></span><br /></div><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><br />Why...I remember a time where The Left jumped all over W.

That's right. It's The Affirmative Action Kenyan Prednint Dear Leader His Excellency Barack <span style="font-style: italic;">Hussein</span> Obama, Junior. His Center for Disease Control has failed.

The death rate among the young and healthy is also far greater than both recent CDC estimates and that of normal flu strains.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Nearly 4,000 American have died as a result of the swine flu, out of an estimated 22 million who have been infected with the virus, according to the new CDC calculations</span>, which are extrapolations based on data gathered in ten states.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">[...]</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Approximately <span style="font-weight: bold;">three quarters of all deaths have been among those aged 18 to 64. About 540 teenagers, children and babies have died as a result of the swine flu—a figure four times higher than that reported last week by the CDC, and seven times the death total for a typical flu strain—with the heart of flu season, December through May, still to come.</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >There have been a total of 98,000 H1N1-related hospitalizations, with more than a third of these, 36,000, among those age 17 and under.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">[...]</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >The Obama administration ordered approximately 250 million doses of the vaccine, and confidently predicted that 120 million of those would be available to the public by this point.

I remember when The Insane Liberal Clown Posse (ILCP) and the Pbama Cultists screamed bloody murder when self-inflicted deaths occurred in Afghanistan during the W. Bush Administration. Oddly, strangely, The ILCP and the Cultists remain dutifully and obediently silent over this facet now with their Cult Leader in charge of the fiasco in Afghanistan.<br /><br /></span></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><img src="http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/7673/obamablamehimnow.jpg" /></span></span><br /></div><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">I thought The ILCP said that since W. Bush failed to capture Osama Bin Laden in Afghanistan, that it was a failed war effort and that we should redeploy our Soldiers and bring them home. Well, Obama hasn't captured Bin Laden, so...why are we still in Afghanistan? What are the benchmarks? What is the point? Why are we there? Obama receives a Free Pass in not having to answer these same questions that were asked of W. Bush on a minute-by-minute basis by the ILCP during his Admin. </span><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><ul><p><span style="font-weight: bold;">The Afghan report also found a shortage of mental health workers to help soldiers who needed it, partly because of the buildup Obama started this year with the dispatch of more than 20,000 extra troops.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">[...]</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >Other findings of the Afghanistan survey included:</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >* Exposure to combat, long recognized as a strong factor in mental health problems, was significantly higher this year than rates in 2005 and similar to rates in 2007 for the combat units.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >* Combat units reported significantly lower unit morale in the last six months of their tours of duty, more evidence of the wearing affect of long deployments.</span></p></ul></span><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">"Exposure to combat, long recognized as a strong factor in mental health problems, was significantly higher this year than rates in 2005 and similar to rates in 2007 for the combat units."</span> Hmmmmmm...who is the Prednint this year? And what year is it that Soldiers find significantly higher mental health problems? Why...2009! I ask again, who is the Prednint in 2009? Well, I know for sure it's not Boooooooooooooosh. So it can't be his fault.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">But the bi-racial Kenyan-born piece of shit receives the Coveted Free Pass from all the good little goose-stepping Marxist, America-hating, knuckle-dragging drooling LiberNazis. This is no surprise to the rest of us. We know they hate America and they hate - absolutely hate - the U.S. Military.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">All the bloodshed, all the torture, all the carnage, the decreased morale, the increase in suicides, the billions of dollar spent on Obama's Illegal Occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq. It's all his fault. He owns it now, fully and wholly. And so do his Cultists who, for almost eight years, did nothing but denigrate the U.S. Soldiers in Afghanistan. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">©2009</span></span>David Drakehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10021088411753970091noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11106188.post-8282466358719544052009-11-14T01:17:00.000-08:002009-11-14T15:07:41.586-08:00The Skanky Miller Show: Nidal Malik Hasan's Murderous Rampage Not Terrorism<span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;">I don't know the name of the guest caller of Friday's edition of Liberal Radio's </span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-family: times new roman;" href="http://www.stephaniemiller.com/" target="_blank">Skanky Miller program</a><span style="font-family:times new roman;"> but he said some very interesting things and offered some very interesting analysis of the Fort Hood Shootings committed by Nidal Malik Hasan.<br /><br /></span></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2239/2387659949_4e4273e381_o.jpg" /></span></span><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >Skanky Miller</span></span><br /></div><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">For instance, he said that Hasan's murderous rampage cannot really be classified as terrorism because "<span style="font-style: italic;">only</span> 13 people died."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">He said that Hasan's acts don't fall under the definition of terrorism because civilians were not targeted, only Military personnel.<br /><br /></span></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><img src="http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/4328/obamahitlersinisterleo1.jpg" /></span></span><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Hitler, Obama...Obama Hitler.

Awww. "Dat's. So. Sad." Especially considering how The Left never uses the politics of personal attack against their political opponents. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">He said that Hasan's actions aren't terrorism because Hasan was "teased."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Awwwwww - poor diaper head was teased. Isn't that terrible? He must be the only one in the entire fucking world - let alone the Military - who has been teased. So of course, his actions are justified by Liberals. And using this justification, anyone teased by Liberals receives a "Get out of Jail Free" card. Huh, this has me thinking the rest of us can shoot and murder Liberals and Progressives with complete immunity considering how they tease anyone who doesn't believe what they believe.<br /><br />The fact that Hasan targeted Military personnel should mean the crime is more heinous than if he had targeted civilians. After all, Hasan took an oath to protect his fellow Soldiers, an oath that is supposed to supersede one's religious beliefs, cultural background, race, ethnicity and skin color. But Hasan didn't honor his oath, did he.<br /><br />And we now know that 13 is at least one of the magic numbers that is low enough to not qualify as being a "terrorist act." I'm not sure what the precise number of dead is supposed to be, or is supposed to reach, before it is declared terrorism, but we know that 13 dead...well, it's just not enough to be considered terrorism.<br /><br /></span></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/225/491712793_9455fb2b4f_o.jpg" /></span></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/225/491712793_9455fb2b4f_o.jpg" /></span></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/225/491712793_9455fb2b4f_o.jpg" /></span></span><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:times new roman;" >Ex-Wino Jowly Jim Ward.
