Yeah... most Afghanistan firefights are not in an urban environment. In Iraq, yeah sure, but it's not this stupid fucking street-to-street CoD style Rambo warfare you imply. If either side is moving and not immobile, it's because the combatants are retreating, and if the enemy is physically seen, then the men are just in the way of an airstrike.

Wow grasping straws with that little chickenshit story, last week Pakistan slaughtered like 30 militants in a big raid.

So nice try at trying spinning Pakistan but they are dealing with the scum minority muslim extremist. The old man above was actually a scumbag terrorist and supporter who had been caught red handed.

The rest of the world is buying electronics also, so stop always trolling about USA.
Obviously people in Sweden and Germany only buy computers made and manufactured in the UK right?

China is contained and nobody is going to be allowing them to be building ports in their countries anytime soon.

One, the positioning alone would likely seriously destabilize the aircraft. Two, the airframe would need to be built in the rear to withstand the firing recoil.

Right back at ya: If you think Obama has done no wrong, then you're kidding yourself. Those "death panels" didn't come from thing air. The original bill did indeed provide people over 80 with free counseling services. They do that for soldiers in hospitals already, with pamphlets that read, "Is life worth continuing, or is it time to move on?"

Yes the R's exaggerated. It's true. But so too did the D's when they said "50 million don't have insurance". The actual Census number was 37.5 million, and then it was later revised to 17.5 million after an error was discovered.

I haven't seen the video that you had described, but it's not the only one of a kind, by far. For example, here is the one of the execution of captured Russian conscripts and their officer at Tukhchar by Chechen islamists during their invasion of Dagestan in 1999 (the beginning of the Second Chechen War):

There is plenty more of that (and even more sick) kind of thing from Chechnya, and a couple more well-known ones from Iraq. Before that, it wasn't that uncommon in conflicts with islamists either (e.g. in Soviet-Afghanistan war), it just wasn't usually taped back then. So, sadly, this kind of thing is more common that you'd think it might be.

Heck, even when there is no war, people can be creatures sick beyond belief.

How do you propose they filter out heavily biased views, or people writing false articles for manipulation of the public?

      Manipulation? Surely no one uses the internet for manipulation!

      If you think that "they" (whoever they may be) need to filter internet content, you are advocating that people should be trusting, obedient sheep that assume everything they are being fed has been sanitized by "someone". This gives that someone power - and people have tended to abuse power since there have been people around.

      I myself enjoy the internet, with all its trolls and biases and wild stories. Anyone with a brain is smart enough to take EVERYTHING they read with a pinch of salt - be it from Wikipedia or Encyclopaedia Brittanica... but the internet with its "low barrier for entry" in the realm of global publishing, is a place where such fantasies are rampant. It's just due diligence to confirm everything you read here from a different (non internet) source.

Partying was going on in a two-story cookie-cutter house in Thousand Oaks, California. The medium-sized crowd ebbed and flowed to the beats of Bob Marley, the Grateful Dead, and the albums of umpteen niggers who'd made it big blathering about bitches and bullets.

Roberto was a loveable microcephalic who was always invited to the parties because he was willing to perform clownish acts, often involuntarily, so that he could entertain the guests and barter his idiocy for some of that sweet, opalescent Columbian flake cocaine being doled out by the spoonful on the dinner table. Budweiser is the best beer to drink with cocaine as there's just something about its sharp back-palate taste which accentuates the drip of the cocaine, dissolving in snot, running down the back of the nasal passages and numbing the upper gums if not the entire forehead if the shit was good, before forming cocaethylene in the bloodstream.

The stupor was so infectious and prevalent that the young adult men lined up to compete against each other for the underleg region of Mara, a Catholic girl with genital warts. She didn't look bad, and tequila-soaked condoms would surely mitigate the pathogens responsible for causing cauliflower-crotch. Meanwhile, Roberto tossed some vomit across the kitchen floor in a line so perfect that its straightness was rivalled only by the white ones on the table, or perhaps the one Daniel Victor Jones painted across the 210 freeway when he incinerated his dog and blew his head off on live television in 1998.

The host of the party, Seb, didn't take kindly to Roberto's antics and insisted that Roberto chug a whole beer at once or else he would never see his expensive prescription glasses again. Roberto, afraid of puking again, took a nervous preliminary gulp before he unwittingly raised the beercan full of Seb's piss, chugging it all in one swing and finishing with a sigh of relief. Roberto was religious when it suited him, and so he attributed the absence of vomit to divine intervention. He would've realized the unfortunate truth had his consciousness drifted to artist Andres Serrano's Piss Christ if he had any sense of association. He received his glasses amidst a sea of roaring laughter.

As we traversed the hallway of the second floor, a bedroom door popped open and an unknown male staggered out of the bedroom and down the stairs while pulling up his pants. Inside the bedroom, the pungent air thick as a ghost, Mara reclined on the bed. Both of her arms were raised with her hands behind her head, revealing her flawless underarms which appeared to be airbrushed and showed no signs of irritation, perspiration, stubble, or residue as her left nipple peeked out above the covers. No condoms were seen anywhere in the room.

Mike, the resident idiot savant, wore a grin rivalling that of the Cheshire Cat. His smile was not purely one of happiness(though he was feeling good), he was showing the bruxism of nightlong cocaine abuse. Hours of cocaine abuse causes clenching and grinding of the teeth. This is not necessarily due to its action on the jaw, but its effect on the gums. It causes a dull, painless ache which leads to the urge to grab a steel scribe and pick the living hell out of the dental vestibules. Fortunately, most cocaine abusers fall asleep from exhaustion before they suffer the sensation of underskin bugs which are more of a tweeker(not cokehead) problem.

Mike had Tourette's syndrome. Whether or not the label was fabricated by his guilt ridden mother who used drugs while he was in utero was a matter of debate, but totally not appropriate for discussion then. What was fact, however, was that drugs affected Mike more than they affected the rest of us. Mike had a penchant for punk rock music, and so he invited us to give him a "wild haircut". We settled on a mullet wit

If the third world doesn't have the will to build and use toilets, why would anyone think that they, if given this poop-bag, would deficate in it and then use it as fertilizer for crops? Someone might have overlooked the fact that to the third-worlders, there isn't any problem to be solved. It would seem that to at least some of them shitting on a beach is normal (as shown at http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=ae0_1264118582).

Have you read up on the actual research that has been done? Check this for starters. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=da2_1186974243 Bottom line is that cells/tissues are indeed influenced by EM radiation at cellphone or wifi frequencies. And seemingly the biggest problem compared to other EM-radiation is that your body simply cannot recognise the "new kinds" of radiation it's exposed to. This can turn out bad, but might also turn out good. The only thing that will prove wether we're fucking up or not is simply time. Besides that there are of course a gazillion other factors that are known to be bad for your cells/tissues that are spread out throughout your home/environment.

P.S:

Here's a selection of Bible quotes advocating the killing of non-Christians, or those who are perceived to violate Christian tenets.

And some articles about contemporary Christians advocating the deaths of non-believers and sinners, sometimes taking efforts to cause those deaths.

we humans would destroy the earth lot before by global warming

      Apparently we're going to have to work a lot harder to do that because the Earth has been through (and shrugged off) far worse changes than the current one.

      Now consider that along with the fact that recently Dr. Maslowski confirmed that Al Gore was misusing and misquoting data supplied by him to support his political agenda. Consider the mere fact that the push for the idea of "global warming" is coming from the POLITICAL, not the scientific, end of society. Consider the fact that "global warming" has opened up a multi-billion dollar a year "carbon offset" market, and new taxation revenue streams for government.

      There is a motive to convince you that the world is going to end. People are willing to believe the world will end for any reason, from the arrival of comets, to planetary alignments and eclipses, to the "return" of "the son of man" (who is coming soon - any day now...). If politicians start clamoring for it, and misuse scientific data to "back up" their claims, there are any number of sheep who will bleat to that tune. To the point where people are already turning violent at "protests" - which can only represent a certain degree of fanaticism about the subject. But simply believing something to be true DOES NOT MAKE IT TRUE.

      Still, don't worry. The oil won't last forever. In fact, once we reach peak oil, its availability will diminish dramatically due to exorbitant prices (look what happened when oil reached a mere $150/bbl, now imagine it at $1500/bbl) as countries compete for the last drops of oil and society has NO CHOICE but to switch to alternative energy. Since the Earth has already demonstrated that it has returned from far worse temperatures/CO2 levels than today, even if global warming was "man-made", the Earth will purge itself of "our pollution" in a few hundred years once we stop "polluting the atmosphere with our CO2".

      However if it's not man-made, well, temperatures are going to rise even when the oil is gone. That will have a lot of people scratching their heads and wondering why they're paying all those carbon taxes in 100 years or so, when oil production/consumption is diminished or negligible. And they will stay at their peak for a hundred years or so. I can imagine some politicians in the far future patting themselves on the back when temperatures return to normal...

Video of said bust: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=dc9_1228632109

Small article and clip of local news coverage on it (might want to turn the sound down, some dope cranked it way up for the video). http://reason.com/blog/2008/12/06/gotcha

These are the same people who have no problem imprisoning others based on hearsay, and cops beating someone up because someone didn't look right.

It's much worse than that. Since this is Chicago we're talking about:

Official proceedings to remove Anthony Abbate from the Chicago Police Department began Tuesday with the airing of about 30 minutes of video showing the disgraced officer showboating and harassing patrons of a Northwest Side bar before he turns on the bartender, beating and kicking her.

The infamous recording -- played around the world -- largely has been seen in shorter snippets.

On Monday, city attorneys aired lengthy portions of the recording to highlight how events unfolded at Jesse's Short Stop Inn in the afternoon and evening of Feb. 19, 2007. The additional video shown in the hearing has not been released because Abbate's case is ongoing.

During two visits to the bar, Abbate consumed large quantities of alcohol and persistently harassed and physically abused patrons and the bartender, Karolina Obrycka, according to the attorneys and the charges filed against him by Police Superintendent Jody Weis.

Abbate, already convicted in criminal court for the felony aggravated battery of Obrycka, faces dismissal from the department before the Chicago Police Board. The board conducts hearings and determines punishment. Weis is seeking his dismissal.

Abbate invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination at least 75 times during questioning by city attorney Anna L. D'Ascenzo, who repeatedly asked Abbate to identify himself on the recording.

"You pounce on Karolina Obrycka," said D'Ascenzo, referring to the video. "You throw her to the ground. ... You grab fistfuls of hair."

The cops claim it's an "isolated incident". Riiiiight.... Yeah, isolated. Stuff like that seldom happens. BTW, those links are from Google's first page of a search for "Chicago police beatings". One of them has a video of a cop beating the holy shit out of a "special needs" student for refusing to tuck his shirt in.

Is it any wonder people in the ghetto have nothing but fear, loathing, and hatred for the police? Anybody who says "but if I'm not brealing the law" are woefully ignorant.

Don't click thoise links if you're easily pissed off, or are one of those "law and order" folks. There is little law and less order.

Oh wow that's going to make it so easy for underage Muslims to buy alcohol with borrowed ID.

You know what? If you are lucky to come from certain "non aryan" place and do couple of things very wrong, that "pain in the ass" could become literal.

You're actually more likely to have an easy time than us "aryan" types, at least in the airports, as racial profiling is pretty much illegal in the US, and the ACLU is even fighting to allow burkas for photo ID's.

Since you can't be racist to a white man in the US, grandma gets strip-searched while the nervous looking arab with full beard and head wrap coasts on through.

All of which ignores the REAL security breakdown that day, which was that 19 people managed to sneak box cutters onto airplanes. And you know what? You can -still- sneak box cutters onto airplanes, I know because a former co-worker of mine who traveled frequently left one in his bag for several trips and was never tagged. He did a major "oh shit!" when he realized it was in there.

Harassing foreigners happens because for some reason Immigration hates immigrants, and anybody who could potentially become an immigrant, regardless of your intentions or value to society. I don't know why, 90% (at least) of the people in this country are descended from immigrants, you'd think we'd love them. Apparently we only love the illegal immigrants, legal visitors can go screw themselves.

That didn't stop this guy.

There was just a huge discussion about these type of wars and how Nuclear weapons have allowed us to avoid massive casualties and WW3, how we now have these never ending mini wars with the Middle East.

Obviously the designers know this is designed for a warzone like Afghanistan in mind, this is the best bang for buck surveillance tool to use in Afghanistan and certain areas of Iraq. The JLENS can already detect cruise missiles from 340 miles away, I think these guys know what they are doing and are smart enought to deploy it in areas where they are not threatened. So this has long been though out, probably since WW2.

They are actually already deployed in FOB in Iraq and Afghanistan since 2004, what is it 2009 now and I think these things have proven their point.

250-Foot Long Hybrid Airship Will Spy Over Afghanistan Battlefields in 2011
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=63a_1253757652

The U.S Army's Space and Missile Defense command plans to have an unmanned spy-ship capable of loitering at 20,000-feet (for up to three weeks) ready to deploy by mid-2011.

Dubbed the Long Endurance Multi-intelligence Vehicle (LEMV), the craft will be based on Lockheed Martin's P-791 experimental hybrid airship, which you can see in the video below. The smaller P-791 was 125-foot long, but flew six tests in 2006. It's known as a hybrid because only 80% of its lift comes from buoyancy; the other 20% comes from three downward thrusters on each side.

"The US Army this week showed off its latest high-tech blimp laden with powerful radar systems capable of detecting incoming threats 340 miles away."

Actually, the guy was running a chop shop and had a house of stolen goods that will easily be traceable.

These are the scumbags who collect all the stuff from your car that had its window smashed in to grab that thing that is worth $5, still doesn't justify this though. Although this happens all the time where officers go through these drug deals houses and they have all the latest expensive gadgets and toys.

Although to be truthful, I have seen silly stuff like this even on the show COPS. I remember they did some Miama drug raid and found all these silly toys this guy had, everytime they would pull something out they would play with it and set it down.

9 hours of searching though the house, something like a year of previous surveillance leading up to get the warrant for the raid and the operation they listed cost about $4,000. I was surprised they listed the actual cost of the operation, but the previous surveillance had to involve lots of paid man hours of just sitting watching in the car.
Which basically makes the warrant voided and illegal as soon as the cops turned on that Wii.

Shitty ass article on Slashdot cannot even link to a Youtube link or comment by the police, here all of 10 seconds it took me.

With guns drawn and flashlights cutting through darkened rooms, Polk County undercover drug investigators stormed the home of convicted drug dealer Michael Difalco near Lakeland in March.

As investigators searched the home for drugs, some drug task force members found other ways to occupy their time. Within 20 minutes of entering Difalco's house, some of the investigators found a Wii video bowling game and began bowling frame after frame.

While some detectives hauled out evidence such as flat screen televisions and shotguns, others threw strikes, gutter balls and worked on picking up spares.

A Polk County sheriff's detective cataloging evidence repeatedly put down her work and picked up a Wii remote to bowl. When she hit two strikes in a row, she raised her arms above her head, jumping and kicking.

While a female detective lifted a nearby couch looking for evidence, another sheriff's detective focused on pin action.

But detectives with the Polk County Sheriff's Office, the Auburndale, Lakeland and Winter Haven police departments did not know that a wireless security camera connected to a computer inside Difalco's home was recording their activity.

The recording obtained by News Channel 8 showed several members of the county's High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) task force entering the house shortly after 8 a.m. According to the search warrant, their mission was to search for drugs, stolen property and the fruits of any illegal drug activity.

Now there are questions on how the impromptu bowling tournament might affect the case against Difalco.

Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd denies it will have any effect.

"That absolutely is not true; that doesn't invalidate the search at all," Judd said. "Now the defendant would like for it to invalidate the search, but unfortunately for him, it won't."

Judd, who watched the video during an interview last week, called the situation an embarrassment.

"I'm not pleased that they played that Wii bowling game," Judd said. The sheriff's office oversees the drug task force. Judd said he initiated an internal administrative investigation of the incident.

"That is not appropriate conduct at a search warrant," he said. "But I am less pleased with the supervision that didn't walk in and say, turn that off. That's what supervision should have done."

It is about a combination of systems to deal with it, when all else goes wrong just unleash hell against with a couple thousand exploding rounds from the Dragons mouth.

I love the engineers and scientist who develope these system, brilliant.

I think they have obviously discussed the other options to avoid the missile with decoys, that is part of the research and development.
