GOTTA SEE THIS -- OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM 12/11/01

Cave and Ridge Battle, Freedom and Food Maldistribution, Brave Military Everywhere, Remembrance

<========================>

REPORT FROM THEATRE 1 - AFGHANISTAN

WAR FOR ENDURING FREEDOM 12/11/01

Multiprong attack on the heart of Usama - War at Tora Bora

Cave by cave, Hunter-Killers Resupplied, Freedom and Hunger in Afghanistan

<========================>

Somewhere in the Northern Arabian Sea:

United States aircraft carriers USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71), USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70),
and guided missile cruisers USS Vella Gulf (CG 72), USS Antietam (CG 54)
joined by [right background] the Italian aircraft carrier ITS Garibaldi (CVS 551)
and guided missile frigate ITS Zeffiro (FFG 577),
and the Canadian guided missile destroyer HMCS Iroquois (DDG 280).

Aboard USS Th. Roosevelt: Loading, then F/18C traffic on deck, then away in flight..

An F/18C waits as an S-3B Viking lands.

F/14B Tomcat after its return from its sortie.

<========================>

USS Baatan, 26 MEU, becoming special op ready with USS Peleliu in background, and Landing Craft Air-Cushion (LCAC)

<========================>

Camp Rhino - 15 MEU 26 MEU Alert.

Somewhere involving Kandahar, after the hunter-killers were finally unleashed, they receive reinforcements.

<========================>

Target: Multiprong attack against Usama, somewhere between Tora Bora and Waziri Gorge.

Pro-US forces at Tora Bora with the White Mountains in the background - still advancing ridge to ridge

Dead Taliban at mouth of cave.

In the shadow of the White Mountains, in the Milawa Valley,
soldiers take warmth and shelter while under fire,
as the captured Al Qaida den is examined and used.

<========================>

In Kabul: U.S. Army's 10th Division, patrol Bagram airport, 45 kms north of Kabul

<========================>

In Kabul: aerial views and a street map showing Kabul River.

In Kabul: a street shave.

In Kabul: A continued serious food distribution problem, as segregated sexes wait.

The women seek 15 kg of wheat each.

Food convoy, then wait, .... and wait

At the second sex-segregated, line:

The UN system of food distribution is not able to effectively distribute the food,

yet the organization plans on increasing its load to 1.3 million people in 7 days.

Getting help with the wheat.

<========================>

On the road to Kandahar (from Chaman):

Near Kandahar (Takhteh Pol), Gulagha fighters, pro US forces,
take time to pray by bridge taken out by USAF.

Back toward Chaman (border near Pakistan), refugees:

<========================>

In Herat : Prisoners (two Taliban perps led by a third man) brought in yesterday, have cuffs removed.

Will there be justice?

This bad Taliban is forgiven but forgiven and released by the Prosecutor:

Meanwhile, there are even more food distribution problems in Herat.

The woman is reported to be saying, 'we don`t need pictures, we need food'.

<========================>

OTHER LOCATIONS and PERPS

Detention facility at Camp Rhino

<========================>

Remember:

<========================>

Remembering the 911 Atrocity and its innocent victims on Earth
and in orbit with Astronauts and cosmonauts -together in peace.

Thanks, I appreciate the posting of this. It has become politically incorrect to post many photos of the WTC people as they were about to perish. Many want to have the memory of it washed away and hope we can become a nation of Barneys. You are one of the few who still do it. Thank you.

FYI folks-this is an outstanding and fastloading pictorial view of the real world over there. Outstanding photography, you almost feel as if you are there.

Dio-I am overwhelmed by your posting today. Simply fantastic-and heart wrenching. To think how hungry these innocent souls are. I pray the food reaches them rapidly and in great supply.

I for one think the American people need to see the grisly photos of the WTC victims taken after the towers collapsed.

Some great pictures...One concern though....I think the liberals may start using these pictures against the Bush administration regarding the Burkha's(spelling?). It seemed that before the military action began, the administration villified the Taliban by citing examples of women opression (ie: required to wear Burkha's, are punished in public or herded in public). Notice that under the new regime, the women still wear Burkha's and notice the picture above were one of the men uses a switch to herd the women as they pick up food supplies. I was under no illusion that Afghanistan would become a better place after the Taliban left power, but I am afraid that democrats, liberals and European Countries would use this as an example to criticize our government as it tries to avenge the WTC deaths....

The difference is now you don't get punished by the gov't for not wearing the Burkha, but your point is taken. The Dems haven't figured out this is war, not some d@mned political dispute. I think they will be rudely awakened to the fact if they don't wise up before the next election.

My gosh, can you just imagine what the families of the victims will be thinking after they watch the bin laden video when it gets released. I hope all Americans watch the bast*&d! I think it all needs to be seen too.
