Helicopter Incidents Kill 14 Americans in Afghanistan

AP: In the first crash, a helicopter went down in the west of the country after leaving the scene of a firefight with insurgents, killing 10 Americans - seven troops and three civilians working for the government. Eleven American troops, one U.S. civilian and 14 Afghans were also injured.

In a separate incident in the south, two other U.S. choppers collided while in flight, killing four American troops and wounding two more, the military said.

What a ridiculous waste. Listen to this terrorist:

“We are benefiting from one thing, and that is the attack on the Twin Towers and Pentagon, and the American struggle in Iraq,”

While the Ditherer-in-Chief shirks his duty as Commander-in-Chief of our armed forces, the enemy grows more emboldened and more of our heroes are killed and wounded. How long are Americans going to take this willful destruction of our way of life?

Rexter is either an angry Palestinian, or a white-trash Klansman. So much Jew hatred from this POS makes him nothing but a troll.

So, they are getting emboldened to defeat an enemy trying to destroy their way of life from a foreign power much like the American revolutionaries did?

Bill,

These Americans are more concerned about a lot of stuff besides this war. Ask any blue blood American Military Man or Women if they wouldn’t want to go and help their brothers and sisters in arms. Myself, I would swim there if I could. This sickens me. 14 killed soldiers to add to the already “32″ for the month of October. More blood on the hands of those who aren’t doing anything to help those in Afghanistan. If they continue to grow we must grow to help them. It only makes sense. Do something or bring them home, and let the Taliban grow and come back through our wonderful unsecured borders and attack us. The American people would wake up, and blame Bush, that sounds about right.

claspur ~

You’re unnerving comments in light of the death of 14 MORE AMERICAN TROOPS are despicable.

If you’ve ever worn a uniform in our Military, you’ve just dishonored it.

You’re spirit is shriveled…putrid… smells of the stench of rotting flesh in the heat of the noon-day desert sun.

Do you dare to call yourself an AMERICAN? You make me want to puke.

You are to be considered a despicable despot entwined with the self-professing Communists, Socialists, Marxists, Maoists, and Fascists, of this present White House and its Administration.

You are an ICHABOD, claspur… you are like your leader usurper Barry Soetoro aka/alien Barack Hussein Obama… ICHABOD

Your spirits are ANATHEMA to AMERICA… ANATHEMA – death

Time to reconsider your ways, claspur, and LOVE AMERICA or move to another country – please.

DANCING ON THEIR GRAVES WITH CAUTION THROWN TO THE WIND

Regardless of how our AMERICAN TROOPS die in AFGHANISTAN, their blood is NOW on the hands of this “dithering”, campaigning, community organizing Commander-in-Chief of THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

Having never worn a uniform, helmet, and boots, or been on the frontline to serve AMERICA, this appears to be of no consequence to this elected ICHABOD.

Before this year, I held the OFFICE of PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA in high-esteem. This ursurper Barry Soetoro aka/alien Barack Hussein Obama, and his closest personal counselor, his wife, and his Administration, are trampling it, our military, and our nation – to death.

IMPEACH Barry Soetoro aka/alien Barack Hussein Obama
IMPEACH Joe Biden
IMPEACH Nancy Pelosi

CLEAN THE HOUSE, and SENATE, of ALL WHO CHOOSE TO “SELL OUT AMERICA” to a One-World Government

lavoce,

Thanks, I believe you said it all. While we have people in this country, indeed even in the White House, who have no idea what the price of freedom is

and have never heard a shot fired in anger, our brave military personnel are shedding their blood for claspur’s right to freely speak his mind, no

matter how vile and disgusting it may be.

This usurper in the White House is constitutionally ineligible to be President of the United States. Having never served in the military, he is not qualified to be a private soldier, much less Commander-in-Chief.

Ooops!   October 26th, 2009 - 2:52 pm

Bill,
“This usurper in the White House is constitutionally ineligible to be President of the United States. Having never served in the military, he is not qualified to be a private soldier, much less Commander-in-Chief”.

Does this also apply to Bush, Cheney, and the rest of the Neocons? After all, they were the people who got us into Afghanistan (and Iraq) in the first place.

Milli   October 26th, 2009 - 3:59 pm

What does it matter when it happened. Our forces are being killed while the pig in chief sits on his lazy arse and lets our guys die. obama is a sociopath, a liar, and all the other badarse names in the dictionary. The WH will get a Peace Prize when he’s voted out.
