Remarkable indeed...

I saw that a couple of weeks ago and e-mailed the link around...

The navlog site has become a favorite.

Run by a Freeper I think, can't think of his handle right off.

Actually, that’s an Apache engaging the vermin with their 30mm chin gun.

I wonder how much money he will get.

What ever it takes, let the killing begin.

Excuse me? Some of that is my tax money you're playing with (well the part the government just doesn't turn the printing press on for, further devaluing the dollar and our true net worth). I'd rather it be returned to the original owner, namely me, instead of paying off yet another third world thug that will eventually turn on us, requiring yet another 'spreading democracy' adventure at some future point

Somebody needs to give Asian reporters lessons in writing. The US did not ask for this NATTO did, big difference in my book. More media spin to make it look like Bush did it.

I never thought I’d see this happen. Musharraf had better start wearing kevlar body suits and employing a couple dozen look-alikes if he wants to stay alive for very long. And once they do get him, Pakistan, along with all that advanced American hardware plus nuclear weapons, will fall into the radical islamists hands.

Musharraf has been the target of several assassination attempts. I believe he is feeling the heat from the Islamist and is allowing the US and NATO to do his dirty work for self preservation. Just my opinion.

If we really get access and kick the Taliban’s and Al Quaida’s asses in Pakistan and they have no place else to go, it could be a billion and still be cheap!

I wonder if this has anything to do with osama.

Very big, but don't believe it yet - Im not sure Asia Times is right - I heard yesterday that Musharraf is going to keep his uniform and not shed it as the US asked recently -

What is true is that Mursharraf is hanging on by a thread.

Good stuff, several years old, though, and from an Apache, not a Spectre.

Thanks for the info ... I just discovered it a day or two ago on www.NavLog.org and used their description of the video and the event it depicted.

Something big is going on!

Is it Bin Laden, or worse yet, did Pakistan lose a nuke?

Thanks for your service. Welcome home!

Ya know, you may well be correct on the spectre thing, I may be thinking of another video, but I do know it’s not even close to new.

Here’s two links I have that may still be good. the first i have labelled as from a c-130 in Afghanistan, the secnd Iraq apache. I don’t know the accuracy of either.

I also have this link to some videos. i can’t recall where i got it, though. Some are better than others, all are graphic. http://users.rcn.com/sitzkrieg/war/

Wow, a lot of hot brass on the drivers backside!

Looks like a toy for Blackwater or Zapata. Too light on armor, though, for our troops.
