<<"According to Tom Cohen, CNN, the soldiers of Bravo Company 2-16 Infantry had been under fire all morning from rocket-propelled grenades and small arms on the first day of Operation Ilaaj in Baghdad. >>
NONE of which was going on within sight of the helicopter. None of which activity was being engaged in by the victims of the American Neanderthals. None of the victims being in any kind of firing position. All of them openly walking down a public street in broad daylight within eyesight of hovering US helicopters. Come on, don't you know bullshit when you see it? Somewhere in the neighbourhood, Americans might have come under fire. Tens of thousands of people live in the neighbourhood. There was no indication at all that this dozen or more people had any part to play in the fighting and the fact that they took no action to seek cover or attack the choppers makes it highly improbable that they had anything to do with it.
<<Al Jazeera stated that the Army had received 'reports of small arms fire' but as they were unable to positively identify the gunmen they proceeded to dispatch Apache helicopters to the area.>>
Translation: reports of gunfire from unidentified gunmen in an area bring helicopters to the area who shoot up anyone within the area. Even though there is NO indication that the victims of the shooting were gunmen and in fact with numerous indications to the contrary (the failure to fire at the helicopters and/or take cover, both before and after the helicopter attacked.)
<<"The Air Weapons Team (AWT) of two Apache AH-64s (part of the 1st Cavalry Division) had been requested by the Army's 2-16 Infantry Battalion, under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Ralph Kauzlarich, before July 12 to support Operation Ilaaj. Tasked to conduct escort, armed reconnaissance patrols, counter-IED and counter-mortar operations, the two helicopters left Camp Taji at 9.24am. They arrived on station in New Baghdad at 9.53am, where, according to the official report, sporadic attacks on coalition forces continued.">>
New Baghdad is one of the nine administrative districts of the City of Baghdad, which has a total population of 6.5 million people. (see Wikipedia articles on both New Baghdad and Baghdad for this information.) Assuming all nine districts to be roughly equal in population, New Baghdad would have an approximate population of 722,222. So you have two helicopters dispatched to a district of about 720,000 people, where somewhere somebody is making "sporadic" attacks on coalition forces. Not even those fucking Neanderthals are so fucking dumb that they would mistake a dozen guys taking up no firing positions, taking no cover from helicopters, firing no weapons and walking along a street in broad daylight as the people making "sporadic attacks" on Americans somewhere in a city of 720,000 people. This is just crap.
Again use your head, CU4, Ami. Use your common sense. Use your judgment. Do these guys LOOK like they're afraid? Under fire? In danger of being shot down? Do they SOUND like it? And ask yourself, if the Army is so fucking innocent, why did they fight so hard to keep the tape from the eyes and ears of the American people? Why does it come to the eyes and ears of the people only through the agency of a whistle-blower? The answer is all too obvious. These guys are liars and murderers and everyone can see it.
