Chopper crash makes 2010 Afghanistan's deadliest year 22 Sep 2010 Nine US troops have been killed in a helicopter crash in southern Afghanistan [the Daychopan district of Zabul province], making 2010 the deadliest year for international forces since the war began in 2001. In Kabul, the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said the cause of the crash was under investigation. It said another NATO soldier, an Afghan soldier and a US civilian were also injured.

All 9 killed in Afghan crash are American-US official 21 Sep 2010 All nine of the NATO troops killed in a helicopter crash on Tuesday in southern Afghanistan were Americans, a U.S. defense official told Reuters. The NATO-led force had not previously disclosed the nationalities of the victims.

US handed dangerous district in Afghanistan 20 Sep 2010 Responsibility for security in a highly violent district in Afghanistan has been given to American troops. The British Army, which had been in control of Sangin in southern Afghanistan, has handed the area over, after having sustained their most serious losses there. The transfer to the US Marine Corps was announced in July by British Defence Minister Liam Fox. [Right, they're no fools.]

Afghan reporter arrested for talking to the Taliban --An Afghan reporter was arrested, apparently because of his contacts with Taliban representatives. 21 Sep 2010 The Associated Press reports that Afghanistan reporter Rahmatullah Naikzad, a freelancer who contributes video to the AP and also works for Al Jazeera's Arab language service, was arrested by a NATO forces in the troubled province of Ghazni yesterday. The International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), the umbrella for the US-led NATO mission in Afghanistan, provided few details beyond a brief statement that the journalist had been detained because of suspected ties to the Taliban.

US drone strike kills 7 in Pakistan 20 Sep 2010 At least seven people have been killed in another US drone attack in Pakistan's troubled North Waziristan region, security officials say. The drone targeted suspected militants some 40 kilometers (25 miles) northeast of Miranshah, the main town in North Waziristan, a Press TV correspondent reported. Security officials say the unmanned plane fired three missiles in the area, killing seven and injuring another two.

CNN 'refused to air US war crime scene' 21 Sep 2010 A former CNN war correspondent says the news network censored footage of the scene of the brutal killing of a young Iraqi boy by US forces. War correspondent Michael Ware, who worked for CNN from 2006 until April 2010, has been struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder after witnessing the violent act by US soldiers. Ware told Radio Australia about the incident he allegedly witnessed and filmed in 2007 when working for US news giant CNN, adding further that the network decided the footage was too graphic to go on air.

Blackwater contractors denied drinking before Afghan killings 21 Sep 2010 In the days after killing two Afghan civilians in Kabul last year, Blackwater contractors mercenaries Christopher Drotleff and Justin Cannon repeatedly told officials they had not been drinking the day of the shootings. That contradicts testimony from others, including fellow Blackwater workers and Afghan interpreters, who say the two had been drinking all day and into the night.

Bombs kill 37, injure more than 100 in Iraq 20 Sep 2010 Six car bombs detonated across Baghdad on Sunday and a suicide bomber blew up a car in nearby Fallujah, killing a total of 37 people and wounding more than 100 in the deadliest day of violence in Iraq since the United States announced the end of combat operations three weeks ago. Traffic snarled in parts of Baghdad as Iraqi police tightened checkpoints after the twin car bombings struck at 10 a.m. in the Mansour and Kathumya neighborhoods, killing 29 people and wounding 111, according to Iraqi security authorities.

Roadside bombs kill three in Iraqi market 21 Sep 2010 At least three people were killed and 40 injured Tuesday when three roadside bombs exploded in quick succession in an outdoor market in the town of Hamza, about 62 miles (100 kilometers) south of Baghdad, police officials said. The attacks happened about 8:30 p.m., they said, declining to provide details. Earlier Tuesday, nine people were wounded after three explosions hit Iraq's capital, Baghdad police said.

After defeat, Democrats vow to keep fighting 'don't ask, don't tell' 22 Sep 2010 Republicans blocked Senate Democrats' effort to repeal the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy on gays Tuesday... Republicans filibustered debate on the annual defense authorization bill because it contained the provision. GOP opposition was solid, with no Republican voting to allow debate to move forward. But with polls showing that Americans overwhelmingly support allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly in the military, Democrats vowed to revisit the issue after November's midterm election.

Republicans block bill to lift military gay ban 21 Sep 2010 Senate Republicans on Tuesday blocked an effort by Democrats and the White House to lift the ban on gays from serving openly in the military, voting unanimously against advancing a major defense policy bill that included the provision. The mostly partisan vote dealt a major blow to gay rights groups who saw the legislation as their best hope, at least in the short term, for repeal of the 17-year-old law known as "don't ask, don't tell."

Obama Choice For Marine Commandant Opposes DADT Repeal 21 Sep 2010 Speaking a few hours before the Senate is due to vote on the defense authorization bill, battleground of the debate over repeal of 'Don't Ask Don't Tell,' the man nominated for Marine Commandant said he worries that repeal could affect "cohesion." Gen. James Amos, the first Marine aviator nominated as leader of the Corps, told the Senate Armed Services Committee that he would not recommend repeal of the law barring homosexuals from openly serving in the military.

Last week, similar envelopes sent to three other embassies in city 20 Sep 2010 An envelope containing white powder was sent to the Turkish Embassy in Tel Aviv on Monday, prompting the arrival of rescue forces including firefighter teams specializing in dangerous substances to the site. A preliminary inquiry suggested that embassy staff opened mail bags at noon and found a "heavy" letter. An unidentified white powder was found inside the envelope.

IDF still using banned weapon against civilian protesters 19 Sep 2010 The Israel Defense Forces continues using the Ruger 10/22 rifle to disperse protests even though it has been prohibited by the military advocate general, a hearing at a military court revealed last week. A brigade's former operations officer told the court he wasn't even aware of the prohibition.

Report: Gaza-bound Syrian aid ship sets sail 19 Sep 2010 An aid boat destined for Gaza set sail Saturday from the Syrian port of Tartous, the state-run Syrian Arab News Agency reported.

Bomb squad finds 'multiple' devices at Socastee HS 21 Sep 2010 (SC) State and county bomb squads have found multiple devices planted in Socastee High School following a shooting on the campus Tuesday afternoon. Sgt. Robert Kegler, spokesman for the Horry County Police Department, said the Horry County Bomb Squad and assisting agencies found "multiple devices inside of the school and rendered them safe."

British terrorism suspect arrested in Amsterdam 19 Sep 2010 A British man of Somali origin was being interrogated at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport last night after he was arrested on suspicion of terrorist activity. The man had completed the first leg of a flight from Liverpool's John Lennon Airport to East Africa and was aboard the plane ready to take off for the second leg. Dutch military police acted on a tip-off from British counter-terrorism officials, sources said, but it was unclear why the man had been allowed to leave the UK.

Interpol worried about spike in extremist websites 21 Sep 2010 The chief of Interpol says the "skyrocketing" number of extremist websites is making it easier for terrorists to recruit middle class youth around the world. Interpol Secretary General Ronald K. Noble says terrorist recruiters are exploiting the Web to target vulnerable young people who are "not on the radar of law enforcement." He says fighting this kind of terrorist recruitment is especially difficult because viewing websites is not necessarily criminal. [!?!]

Real-Time Security Cameras Link NYC Subway Hubs 20 Sep 2010 As many as 500 cameras have been placed in nearly every corner of three of the busiest transit hubs in New York City -- in the stairwells and on the platform. Mayor Michael Bloomberg didn't waste time talking about the subways, "which we know terrorists regard as what they would call high value targets." Bloomberg, NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly and Metropolitan Transportation Authority chairman Jay Walder announced the city's newest security initiative on Monday.

'FBI falsified post-9/11 events' [Yeah, pre-9/11 events, too.] 21 Sep 2010 The US Justice Department has accused the FBI of providing misleading statements on terrorism in the wake of the September 11 incident. The FBI gave false information to Congress and the public to justify surveillance of an anti-war rally in Pittsburgh in 2002, US media quoted a report by the Justice Department on Monday.

IG: FBI gave inaccurate statements on surveillance 20 Sep 2010 The FBI gave inaccurate information to Congress and the public when it claimed a possible terrorism link to justify surveilling an anti-war rally in Pittsburgh, the Justice Department's inspector general said Monday in a report on the bureau's scrutiny of domestic activist groups. Inspector General Glenn Fine said the FBI had no reason to expect that anyone of interest in a terrorism investigation would be present at the 2002 event sponsored by the Thomas Merton Center, a nonviolent anti-war and anti-discrimination group. [And, if the FBI spied on teabaggers instead of leftists, Faux News would be calling for the second American Revolution.]

Obama's key economic aide Lawrence Summers to step down 22 Sep 2010 Lawrence Summers, the chief economic adviser to President Barack Obama, announced on Tuesday that he would step down after mid-term elections, deepening the sense of doom around the US administration. Mr Summers will return to teaching at Harvard University, which he left in 2009 to become head of National Economic Council and the architect of the administration's key economic policies designed to 'counteract' the recession.

Because Obusha stopped the public option: Health insurers seek rate hikes, citing new 'reform' law 20 Sep 2010 Health-insurance companies are raising rates in Colorado, ending sales of child-only policies and blaming their actions in part on the federal health reform law, moves that regulators call "bizarre" and consumer advocates are vowing to watch. At least six major companies -- including Anthem, Aetna, Cigna and Humana -- have said they will stop writing new policies for individual children not covered by their parents' or other plans, insurance officials said... Some of the same insurers, meanwhile, have filed proposed rate increases with Colorado for individual policies, hiking premiums by up to 27 percent, regulators said.

Lieberman Wants to Start a Bipartisan, High-Income Tax Cuts Gang 21 Sep 2010 TPM noted yesterday that, in direct conflict with President Obama's agenda, Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Sociopath-CT) is organizing Senate Democrats and Republicans to temporarily extend Bush tax cuts for high-income Americans. This afternoon, on his way into a weekly Democratic caucus policy lunch he explained that he'd like to head up another bipartisan "gang" to reach a tax cut compromise.

Christine O'Donnell Is a 'Criminal,' Claims Watchdog Group --CREW Files Complaints With Feds Saying Delaware Tea Party Republican Spent Campaign Cash On Herself 20 Sep 2010 A watchdog group has filed official federal complaints against Tea Party candidate Christine O'Donnell, upset winner of Tuesday's GOP Senate primary in Delaware, and has labeled her a "criminal" for allegedly using campaign contributions for rent and other personal expenses. "Christine O'Donnell is clearly a criminal, and like any crook she should be prosecuted," said Melanie Sloan, CREW Executive Director.

The Secret Election (The New York Times) 19 Sep 2010 For all the headlines about the Tea Party and blind voter anger, the most disturbing story of this year's election is embodied in an odd combination of numbers and letters: 501(c)(4). That is the legal designation for the advocacy committees that are sucking in many millions of anonymous corporate dollars, making this the most secretive election cycle since the Watergate years. As Michael Luo reported in The Times last week, the battle for Congress is largely being financed by a small corps of wealthy individuals and corporations whose names may never be known to the public. And the full brunt of that spending -- most of it going to Republican candidates -- has yet to be felt in this campaign.

Another hypocritical, GOPredator stalking nutcase is allowed to keep a high-paying job instead of doing time: DA who sent sex texts says he will stay in his job 19 Sep 2010 A Wisconsin district attorney has said he will take time off for counselling but will not stand down from his highly regarded job. The Associated Press has reported that Calumet County District Attorney, Ken Kratz, has informed officials he will not resign over sexual text messages he sent to a domestic abuse victim... Kratz was president of the association in 1996 and its designee on the Wisconsin Crime Victims' Rights Board [!], from which he has resigned. A Republican, he is not up for re-election in his $105,000 annual job until November 2012. 

Mega barf alert! FDA to consider approval of genetically modified salmon 20 Sep 2010 Federal food regulators pondered Monday whether to say, for the first time, that it's OK to market a genetically engineered animal as safe for people to eat. The Food and Drug Administration is holding two days of hearings on a request to market genetically modified salmon. Critics call the modified salmon "frankenfish" that could cause allergies in humans and the eventual decimation of the wild salmon population.

Kerr-McGee Fined in Royalty Case 21 Sep 2010 Nearly seven years after a government auditor charged that an oil company had cheated the government out of millions of dollars in royalties, a federal judge has ordered the company to pay nearly $23 million in penalties -- including $5.7 million to the auditor who uncovered the problem. The company, Kerr-McGee Oil and Gas, was ordered to pay treble damages, or triple the $7.5 million that a jury said in 2007 the company was liable for, because of the false royalty claims it submitted to the federal government. 

Audit: DOT spends millions on unused equipment 21 Sep 2010 A report released Tuesday by the North Carolina Office of the State Auditor is highly critical of the state Department of Transportation - saying it has millions of dollars worth of heavy road-building equipment that sits unused most of the time. "Department of Transportation's policies and procedures do not provide reasonable assurance that underutilized or idle heavy equipment will be detected and corrective action taken," reads the audit.

Pentagon to investigate hundreds of suspected child pornography fans in its ranks By John Cook 15 Sep 2010 In a reversal, the Pentagon says it will reopen hundreds of cases of alleged purchases of child pornography by Department of Defense employees that Pentagon officials previously declined to investigate, The Upshot has learned.

Obama administration appeals release order for Guantanamo prisoner 17 Sep 2010 Appeals court judges deciding whether to release a Guantanamo Bay detainee prisoner asked Friday: If once an al-Qaida member, always an al-Qaida member? The Obama administration has appealed an order for the release of Mohamedou Ould Salahi, who has been accused of helping recruit Sept. 11 hijackers. A lower court judge said Salahi should be freed because he was abused tortured by interrogators at the Naval-run prison in Cuba and later retracted his 'confession' to arranging travel for two hijackers.
