Looks like the native hillbilly's found a way to slay The Invincible M1 Abrams tank. That leaves us with two options: retreat or inflict a scorched-earth campaign against the hillbilly's which will leave us occupying lifeless dirt.

Mon Feb 6, 2012 2:31PM GMT LAST UPDATE Another helicopter operated by the US-led NATO military alliance has crashed in eastern Afghanistan, with no immediate reports of casualties. Although no deaths or injuries have been reported, NATO says it has transferred the troopers to a nearby military base. The Western alliance has not yet released details regarding the location of the incident. It remains unclear whether the copter was attacked by militants or crashed as a result of technical problems. The Taliban say they have shot down several aircraft and NATO choppers in different parts of Afghanistan over the past few months. Last year, Taliban militants downed a US helicopter in Afghanistan's eastern province of Wardak. Thirty-one members of the US Special Forces were killed in the incident which was the biggest single loss of lives for American forces since the 2001 US-led invasion of Afghanistan. Since the 2001 US-led war, Afghanistan has been the scene of violence and explosions on a daily basis. Afghan civilians, including women and children, have been the victims of the decade-long war between US-led foreign forces and Taliban militants.

Our choppers NEVER go down as a result of enemy action. It's always some other crap. At any rate, you never hear about these things on the evening snooze. Ya gotta read about in on the internet. The Western alliance has not yet released details regarding the location of the incident. It remains unclear whether the copter was attacked by militants or crashed as a result of technical problems.

No Abrahams tank has every been destroyed. They've been disabled, but not destroyed. Arabs can run their mouths, but they have nothing to back it up.
