Nice of the AP to include 4 year old info in the news. Thanks you AP's. I hope you have to live with crabs.

What do we have to do to make the good guys put the hurt on the bad guys for even thinking about doing something like this against us?

Seems that they are geting more SA-7's. Probably the russians,iranians,and chinese are all supplying them. Im so sick of this. We need to pound all the aggressors and let the chips fall whee they may.
Sounds like it's turning into Afghanistan when the Soviets fought there.

A very good chance these Blackwater employees were former special ops types from any one of the armed services.
May they rest in peace.

This is 2 shot down now?
What altitude are they flying at? Small arms fire downing them???
I read that some shoulder fired rocket was used against the earlier one. I also remember Russia selling iran shoulder fired rockets to iran and us "warning" them that we better not see them in use in Iraq.
I wonder....

Since this is AP and their source is a Baghdadi I am really dubious about the facts...

Ambush, they were laying in wait for the bird - so just like number 2, when do we get to start busting some serious butt over there?

May they rest in peace. Prayers for the families.

Why are the insurgents detonating bombs near our houses every day? Everyday we have a blast, what have we done wrong?"
Well, we can't blame the old woman, she didn't vote in the American elections... ;')
