You're under arrest. SecDef Gates has prohibited such images being made public. Now I've looked at the image's URL and it appears to be from May 2008, so never mind. As you were, private.

WOLVERINES!!!!
Just wait until the blood dancers at LP see this. They'll have to get new batteries for their George Bush figurine vibator's.

We got change. Buckwheat has changed his mind.
Those that 'lead' the kids in Afghanistan should change their mind since they've been left abandoned by the Kenyan Fakir.
In the video you posted, he sounded very presidential. Mind like a steel trap, decisions made at top speed. Now he cannot seem to make up his mind on anything, all he can recall is that the Jews say no withdrawal.
LOL,You forgot the pic Ted Kennedy Is Now Eligible To Vote In Chicago.
Let us also ensure that our troops have plenty of body armor. Watch your back.
What a freaking nightmare...
Hey, as long as them-there goyims is dyin', all is goin' A-OK!

I wonder if obamalamadingdong curbed his crack/pole addiction once he got to Twh...
There's probably plenty of crack pipes left around from Hitlary and Bill's Christmas tree decorations.
You know they all carry brillo...
You guys ready for Camp? It's gettin' close, I can feel it. Hatey-Hate-Hate bill tomorrow! What the hell is Tango?
Yea, on their head.
The U.S. Govt has become a tyrannical butcher; U.S. taxpayers are accomplices to international murder and mayhem. If you satisfy your fears by bowing to this butcher, you forfeit your humanity and possibly your soul.
IMO, Sam Kass, the Kenyan's 2nd personal chef from Chicago, gets his pan cleaned by the big O on a regular basis.
Don't forget the fried chicken.
I'm not going. Not going alive anyway. I prefer a real defense and miracle-filled counter offensive measures to submission. Better to live FREE than DIE a SLAVE
growing as the government leaps and bounds...
Ewwwww
This picture looks photo shopped. Dust rising from a hit on a vehicle? I don't buy it but I'm willing to listen. The guy lying on the ground...on the left...I don't buy it.
I barely looked at that photo at first, but now that you mention it, the more you inspect it the stranger it looks. 1) There seems to be a detonation in a vehicle that has already been destroyed. 2) The powerplant looks to be on fire, yet the apparently injured soldiers on the right almost seem to be taking shelter in the shadow of its smoke. Two other soldiers, apparently unconscious, are layed out right next to the burning truck. Helluva place to position injured. 3) Some idiot local has casually parked his little sedan with the driver's door ajar next to a burning military vehicle. Maybe he's parked there just having a cigarette. 4) The injuries to the soldiers do not seem comensurate with the amount of damage to the vehicle. Perhaps this image isn't photoshopped, but it might be posed or the result of some kind of drill or exercise. In any case, it doesn't look natural.
The guy lying on the ground...on the left...I don't buy it. From comments on the wired.com "danger room" article: "Posted by: JIEDDO | 10/27/09 | 6:30 pm The picture is from a realistic training exercise, supported by the JIEDDO Joint Center of Excellence (JCOE) at the National Training Center in Ft. Irwin, CA."

"Satan / Cheney in "08" Afghanistan’s low-tech, relatively primitive bombs might be even harder to stop than Iraq’s comparatively sophisticated improvised explosives. The Pentagon is sinking almost a billion dollars into new tools to stop this dumbed-down threat, like sensors and software that can detect minute changes on the ground, along with dozens of other initiatives. It’s a particularly urgent need: Between 70 and 80 percent of coalition casualties in Afghanistan are now caused by improvised bombs. The International Security Assistance Force announced today that eight U.S. troops — and an Afghan civilian working for the coalition — were killed in “multiple, complex” roadside bomb attacks in southern Afghanistan. In Iraq, the Pentagon’s Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization played a cat-and-mouse game against sophisticated insurgent bomb-making cells who used military-grade explosives and radio-frequency triggers. As violence crested, insurgents there were laying as many as 100 of the deadly devices in one day. The organization spent billions to field radio-frequency jammers and speed the development of mine-resistant vehicles, and the total number of deadly attacks dropped precipitously. In comparison, Afghanistan’s bombs are much more crude. Insurgents there often mix up homemade explosives that are triggered by command wire or a simple pressure plate. But detecting those elementary components “is a very difficult physics problem,” JIEDDO director Lt. Gen. Thomas Metz tells Danger Room. We’ve become accustomed to the idea that a weapon’s potency grows with its sophistication: “Smart” munitions are more effective than dumb ones; supersonic jets can shoot down slower planes. But Afghanistan and its IEDs are proving the exception to that rule.

Every American unit in Afghanistan will be partnered with an Afghan unit, and we will seek additional trainers from our allies to ensure that every Afghan unit has a coalition partner.
