3 US choppers down in Afghanistan




US: 14 Americans killed in 2 helicopter crashes

KABUL -- The U.S. military says 14 Americans have been killed in a series of helicopter crashes in Afghanistan.

A U.S. statement says seven U.S. troopers and three U.S. civilians working for the government died when their helicopter went down early Monday in western Afghanistan. Twelve Americans and 14 Afghans were injured.

Also Monday, two U.S. helicopters collided in southern Afghanistan, killing four American troops and wounding two others.

U.S. authorities have ruled out hostile fire in the collision but have not given a cause for the other crash. The Taliban say they shot down a helicopter in Badghis province of northwestern Afghanistan but it was unclear if this is the same incident.




The beat goes on for troops on the ground.

    Of course, Obama is less concerned about about the welfare of US troops on the ground because in the crowd where Obama trucks, they don't do military service.

  4. A mile from South Station, an outpost of US marines in Helmand province, the tribal chief was openly hostile. “The Americans threaten our economy and take our land for bases. They promise much and deliver nothing,” he said.

    “People here regard the American troops as occupiers,” said Haji Khan, a leader of the Baluch tribe, who rules like a medieval baron. “Young people are turning against them and in time will fight them.”

    Inside South Station, soldiers are proud of the progress they have made. Until they arrived, this remote part of Helmand had not had a government presence for years. But many are pessimistic about where the conflict is heading.

    “I’m not much for this war. I’m not sure it’s worth all those lives lost,” said Sergeant Christian Richardson as we walked across corn fields that will soon be ploughed up to plant a spring crop of opium poppy.

    A New Yorker who joined the marines after 9/11 and served two tours in Iraq, Richardson, 24, said his men had achieved much. “You can see we are making progress, slowly. But when we leave, the Taliban and Al-Qaeda will surely return.”

  7. Does Sergeant Christian Richardson consider his presence in Helmand to be representing the United States, or the Afghan government.

    Seems to me that after years of not having a presence in that Region the Afghan government still does not, but the US certainly does.

  8. meanwhile, why the US spends itself into the abyss of ME sands, China continues the long March:

    Beijing (AsiaNews/Agencies) – China’s march towards Africa’s economic “colonisation” continues. A US$ 7 billion mining deal between Guinea and little-known China International Fund (CIF) underscores Beijing's rush into Africa. The deal, which includes both exploration and mining rights, was confirmed last week by the African country’s iron-fisted military junta.
    Under the terms of the deal, the CFI will have unfettered access to bauxite and other minerals in exchange for major revenues to the government of military leader Dadis Moussa Camara (pictured).

    According to various human rights groups, the contract was signed despite strong protests by the local population fearful that a Chinese invasion might affect local markets and reinforce the dictatorship.

    Back in September, the army opened fire against peaceful pro-democracy demonstrators, killing 157 and wounding about 1,200.

    Beijing refused to make any comments about the episode or the contract. The CIF also adopted the same posture.

    Some analysts are concerned that China might even sell weapons to Guinea. Europe, the African Union and ECOWAS have imposed an embargo because of the massacre.

    In many ways, the Guinea deal perfectly reflects established Chinese business practices in Africa, characterised by huge investments in a poor continent but also secrecy and scant regard for human rights.

    "Climate Change "Science""

    There is the rub Doug, (and Rat, and Whit, Quirk ect.) - the sneer quote on the term science. Science is not opinion. If you do good science, as in follow the "scientific method" throwing money at something should not influence the result. Let's create a very simplistic example to try to demonstrate.

    Take the question of the sun's rising. We can state that the sun will rise in the east each morning. We can then observe where the sun rises. Even if the 'Government' spent billions with the desire to demonstrate that the sun rises in the west you will not get that outcome. Instead each individual piece of data will serve to confirm the hypothesis that "the sun rises in the east". The theory will never be proved but the evidence will confirm it.

    Sure, if the government spends billions researching climate change you will get a lot of studies on climate change but the fact of studying climate change will not alter the results of the studies. To condemn the science of climate change because the government funded some of it is silly. It is not silly to question the studies and their conclusions. For example, Rufus posted a link to charts on temperatures and stated that 2008 was actually cooler than 1998 (or something like that). That is fine, he is debating the science - the hypotheses, data, and conclusions. Mind you I think he is erring by looking at a very narrow time frame range but that is a fundamentally different argument then the simplistic nostrum that 'governors funding science will yield results pleasing the governors'.

  39. If you do good science, as in follow the "scientific method" throwing money at something should not influence the result.

    The operative words here are ‘should not influence”. That’s what this discussion is about. You are right in describing your example of the sun as simplistic. I suspect everyone at the EB is familiar with the scientific method, with peer review, and with scientific consensus. We are also aware of politics, of faulty models, of hidden agendas, of intellectual dishonesty, and of how hard it would be to be objective after committing a lifetime to a particular view.

    You seem to be saying if the science is there we should have nothing to worry about. I say you’re wrong and that it is in our interest to be skeptical about science that has political consequences (i.e. it affects the allocation and distribution of limited resources.)

    One example, to support my position is the de facto banning of DDT in third world countries. Paul Muller produced the first DDT in 1929. We started using it in 1943. Muller got the Nobel Prize for it in 1948. By 1962, we had pretty much eradicated mosquito-borne diseases in the US and Western Europe by using DDT. The advantages of DDT were that it was effective, long-lasting, and cheap. Legitimate considerations in poor countries of the third world.

    However in 1962, Rachel Carson published her book “Silent Spring”. It was filled, with outright lies, half-truths, and junk science that has been discredited over the following half century. However, the result of the book was that environmental groups jumped on the ban DDT band wagon. Similar to today’s global warming debate, scientists supporting DDT were shouted down and ridiculed.

    In 1972, William Ruckleshaus , Head of the EPA (and also a member of the Environmental Defense League), overruled the opinion of his administrative law judge, and banned DDT. His rationale? Well we don’t know since he refused to give them up to freedom of information requests. At any rate, Europe followed suit and banned DDT also. Worse the developed world enforced a de facto ban on DDT to poor countries by restricting aid and development funds if those countries tried to use DDT.

    The results? Ten of millions of people, most of them children, have died needlessly of malaria and other mosquito–borne diseases.

    In 2000, 380 scientists signed an open letter calling for the renewed use of DDT. That same year the UN was calling for a world-wide ban.

    However, by 2005 groups like the WWF and Green Peace were reversing their long-standing opposition to DDT. However, as far as I know, aid groups are still pushing for the use of mosquito nets rather than the cheaper and more effective DDT. And people are still dying, like a couple of million a year.

    So tell me again why we should not be skeptical of “science” build on man-made models constructed to duplicate extremely complex systems, by men who have invested entire careers pushing AGW, and by groups whose agendas are suspect, and proponents who stand to make a lot of money off of the "remedies"?

  40. I've never said that one shouldn't be skeptical. In fact, good scientific method thrives on skepticism. I've been arguing simply that the source of the funds (the government) doesn't effect the results of particular studies. Funding certainly can effect the framing of the questions, what is studied ect., the methods used, but it doesn't change the results. A government desiring to find water on the moon and throws billions of dollars at the question will not affect whether on not there is water on the moon.

    ReplyDelete
  41. I've been arguing simply that the source of the funds (the government) doesn't effect the results of particular studies.

    And I am arguing that you can't automatically say that the funding source, in this case government, "doesn't" affect results. It's very possible your statement is correct for one particular study or even for most studies but there is no guarantee that it doesn't affect "some" studies.

    And the "some" studies I assume Rat was talking about are those that have serious political ramifications, ie involve the allocation or taxing of resources, whether we are talking healthcare, carbon immissions, etc.

    ReplyDelete
  42. It then becomes a blanket excuse for rejecting studies that you don't agree with. I think it better to argue the science involved. The tobacco companies were notorious for 'fudging' the results of studies they funded. Pharmaceutical companies have been known to do similar things with research on drugs they release. The burying of research that does not confirm the results they desire has occurred. Burying results, however, is different from buying results you want. The latter is much more difficult, if not impossible (short of fraud) - at least in well designed, peer reviewed, studies. Interpreting results (i.e building climate models) is a much more nebulous affair. Skepticism is good!

    ReplyDelete
  43. "It then becomes a blanket excuse for rejecting studies that you don't agree with.

    Not sure where that one came from Ash. The fact is that if I don't agree with a study I don't need an excuse, blanket or otherwise. In my evaluation of the study admittedly I will factor in where the study came from and if there are any possible hidden agendas involved.

    At least we agree, it does no harm being skeptical.

    ReplyDelete
  44. ...and independent studies are good thing! If the government provides funds to do a study and it is dismissed because the government provided the money I'd call that a blanket excuse.

    Pakistan has claimed a string of successes and has vowed to crush Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in South Waziristan, pressing its most ambitious battle yet in a tribal area infested with Al-Qaeda-linked rebels.

    But in growing signs that Taliban fighters are seeking to widen the conflict across the vast tribal belt and hobble the offensive, heavily armed insurgents killed five Pakistani troops in surprise raids further north.

    Although aid workers have no access to South Waziristan, they have expressed increasing concern about the toll on civilians and an army spokesman told AFP that around 200,000 people have fled their homes in the area since August."

  76. 新北市土城警分局一名偵查佐於3日與酒店打工女性友人到台北新兒童樂園玩,6日晚間採檢確診,據台北市衛生局公布的足跡來看,確診女性友人是酒店上班制服酒店小姐,有老司機就大曝這家制服酒店的新鮮玩法,比照澳門桑拿做出「櫥窗大魚缸」噱頭,將坐檯小姐放在櫥窗內,供上門的客人挑選。指出,這名現年31歲的土城分局偵查佐,主要擔任鑑識工作,在夜店認識這名自稱大體化妝師的女子卻在6日雙雙採檢確診,事後該名女子也被起底,發現她是中山區的酒店工作制服酒店坐檯小姐,,據表示,該酒店的坐檯小姐上班時身穿火辣性感服飾,吸引客人上門消費。有老司機透露,原本疫情前這間酒店底單為1350元,但是疫情後調整為1500元,另外還需要支付少爺小費1千元,加上疫情停業影響,店家也開始加收包廂費,如果是單人的包廂費用為500元,平常包廂費用則收取約1千元左右,營業時間從傍晚5點開始至隔天上午7點多左右結束。熟知酒店文化的酒店經紀表示,制服店的酒店小姐沒有便服店或禮服店的坐檯小姐外型亮眼,必須靠大膽作風吸引客群,治裝上也以「稀少布料」為主,這位確診的酒店小姐店家,甚至推出新的選妹方式,俗稱「櫥窗大魚缸」,就是讓酒店公關坐檯小姐全部在櫥窗內讓客人挑選,有老司機表示,素質不比便服店、禮服店小姐外貌來的好看。這間酒店業者店接獲消息後也自主停業3天,針對店內環境進行清消,甚至還要求所有酒店應徵員工快篩,若出現不適症狀者,也立刻到醫院進行PCR檢測。 除此之外,高雄也爆出酒店上班群聚疫情累計112人確診,除了雅閣、金芭黎、帝堡等3家娛樂場,幾乎老司機常去的場所全部淪陷,其中,苓雅區的典璦SPA會館對外以婚紗會館的名義經營,私底下卻是業界知名的「半套店」,頗受年輕老司機的歡迎。根據高雄市府昨天公布新增59例的海量確診足跡,上頭驚見「酒店上班名單」,包括雅閣會館、金芭黎舞廳、帝堡101會館全中鏢,根據統計,這波娛樂場所染疫事件,累積至8日已造成112人確診。另外,今天新增58個確診個案中,又有50例屬於娛樂場所,根據公布的足跡,除了已有群聚事件的AGO雅閣私人會館、帝堡一零一會館之外,不少網友注意起足跡中包含大帝國舞廳、王牌精品會館、金色養生館以及紅樓夢男模會所、典璦美容美體會館等。其中,苓雅區的典璦SPA美容美體對外以婚紗會館名義經營,私底下卻是業界知名的「半套店」,2020年曾被警方查獲從事半套性交易被判罰,根據當時的判決,半套的「消費」是1600元。會館還有經營臉書、IG等社群媒體,內容可看出店內小姐都穿著女僕裝、旗袍、水手服、黑絲白襯衫OL裝等,制服控的客人可以隨意挑選,是頗具知名度的娛樂場所。
