World War 3, African Front: Obama regime backs UN invasion of C.A.R.! More proof False Flag War on Terror is really Christian ‘West’ trying to destroy Muslim ‘East’? Or, is it oil?

12 December 2013 (12:45 UTC-07 Tango)/08 Safar 1435/21 Azar 1392/10 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

The Obama regime has ordered the U.S. Air Force to begin flying in a United Nations invasion and occupation force into the Central African Republic.  The UN is using the excuse that C.A.R. is a failed state (so when is the UN going to invade Detroit?).

France and several African Union member countries have already invaded.

C.A.R. is supposedly in the midst of a civil war, Christians versus Muslims.  However, it’s starting to look like a false flag against Muslims.  Today, African Union troops said they rescued a group of Muslims who asked for asylum in a Christian church. The Christians wanted to kill the Muslims.

However, reports say the African Union troops actually arrested the Muslims, several were religious clerics.

Other reports say the French invaders have also been rounding up Muslims.  The explanation given by the ‘christian’ invaders, for the wholesale detention of Muslims in predominate Christian areas, is that they are arresting “Seleka” rebels.   However, there is no evidence that those being rounded up are rebels.

I’ve read some pro-Christian articles that claim that C.A.R. is 85% Christian.  Bold face lie!  At most 50% of people living in C.A.R. call themselves Christians.   The rest are indigenous beliefs or Muslims.

Currently, the only big export from C.A.R. are diamonds. Their biggest customers are Belgium and China.  So why is France, the African Union and United States invading and occupying C.A.R.?

Anybody remember the KONY2012 video?  The propaganda effort by the Obama regime to gain public support for military action in C.A.R. earlier this year?   The U.S. Africa Command claim Christian rebel leader Joseph Kony ordered his Lord’s Resistance Army to murder, rape and kidnap tens of thousands of men, women and children.

The Obama regime’s efforts to go to war in Africa go back to 2010 when Barack Obama signed a law authorizing action against the Lord’s Resistance Army.

In March, Seleka rebels took over the government.  Some reports say unemployment in the capital city of Bangui is at least 23%.  Ironically the French and U.S. government initially supported the new Seleka government.

This was because the new leaders were willing to cancel oil deals made between the previous C.A.R. government and China.

C.A.R. is surrounded by oil rich countries, and is geographically a central transit point for oil transport from those countries.  The U.S. based World Bank financed a $3.5 billion USD ExxonMobile oil pipeline from southern Chad through C.A.R.  The deal also involved Chevron, Malaysia’s state Petronas, and China National Petroleum Corporation.

As of 2000, the estimated production output of the oil fields of southern Chad was put at 225-thousand barrels per day!

Since 2000, there has been oil exploration in the northern area of C.A.R. by the U.S. based RSM Production, an affiliate of Grynberg Petroleum.  Apparently there is oil there because in 2010 C.A.R. government officials announced they were working on oil deals with China.  The problem was that Grynberg Petroleum was legally challenging C.A.R. oil block concessions!  It’s interesting that as I write this Wikipedia still does not list petroleum as an industry in C.A.R.

My point is that this new UN-EU-U.S. invasion of C.A.R. is not about being a ‘failed state’ or Muslims versus Christians, it’s totally about the discovery and control of big oil!

All home postal deliveries to stop by 2019! 8-thousand job cuts! Who said the Queen of England was just a figure head?

12 December 2013 (10:38 UTC-07 Tango)/08 Safar 1435/21 Azar 1392/10 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

The evil British empire country of Canada just announced that all home postal deliveries will stop by 2019.  People will have to pick up their mail at centralized locations (such as cluster boxes).

Canada Post Corporation (aka Canada Post) is a tool of the evil Queen of England.  It is part of the royal Crown Corporations of the monarchical Commonwealth (empire).  In Australia, Crown Corporations are called Government Business Enterprise (GBE).

Canada Post also said 8-thousand employees will be rendered unemployed by 2019!

The shift to centralized mail pick up might not be that bad for Canadian postal customers, according to reports only one third of Canadians get their mail delivered to their homes.  However, representatives of old Canadians (elderly) who still live in their own homes have pointed out that they have no way of getting to any centralized mail pickup point.

Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (also a Crown Corporation) said this could be the “nail in the coffin for Canada Post”.

The empire country of New Zealand recently announced major cuts to their postal system.

Uruguay pisses off United Nations, makes Marijuana legal! Is this a False Flag to justify a U.S. led, UN backed invasion?

12 December 2013 (17:17 UTC-07 Tango 11 December 2013)/08 Safar 1435/21 Azar 1392/10 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

On the grounds of fighting fire with fire, the government of Uruguay has officially declared Marijuana legal, and the government as the only official source!

According to various surveys there isn’t actually a majority of support for the new law in Uruguay, but the law is being promoted as a way to destroy violent drug lords.

People over the age of 18 years can buy 1.4 ounces per month from government sponsored pharmacies.  If you want to grow your own you must register with the government.  Marijuana smoking clubs consisting of up to 45 people can be formed.

But this has the United Nations upset, because it violates an anti-Marijuana international law, which previous Uruguayan governments have signed on to.

So what now?  Is the UN going to ask the United States to lead an invasion against the now illegal country of Uruguay?

I wonder how many U.S. DEA agents, or evil British empire SIS (MI-6) agents make up the violent drug lord’s gangs?

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 13-16 November 2013: Broke U.S. reneges on purchase of Russian helicopters! Cops gunning down civilians! Clinton wants more of your money for Afghanistan! More proof U.S. taxes fund Mujahideen!

Badakhshan Province:  In Jaram District, people reported a drone crashed.  No word from U.S./NATO/ISAF.

Baghlan Province: In Pul-e-Khumri City, a city cop turn his gun on civilians.  Two killed, three wounded.  City police officials say they’ve arrested the bad cop.  Apparently the evil control freak cop got frustrated when the civilians refused to do what he said.

Helmand Province: In Lashkargah City, a motorcycle bomb exploded, wounding four people.  In Nawzad District, local Mujahideen say a Georgian ISAF tank was blown up by a landmine.

Kabul Province: In Kabul city, a car bomb exploded killing ten people near the Burhanuddin Rabbani University.  Witnesses said there was a gun battle after the explosion.  One of those killed was an Afghan National Army soldier.  Three ANA soldiers wounded.  The university is were the Loya Jirga is being held to decide the fate of the Obama regime’s 2014 ‘security deal’.

Kandahar Province: In Registan District, Mujahideen ambushed the convoy of the district police chief.  Government officials say the police boss survived.  No mention of the attack by Mujahideen groups.  In Panjwai, a U.S. Army Special Forces Staff Sergeant (E6) from Texas was killed during an attack by Mujahideen.  In Zhiri District, a Mujahid infiltrated a police check point.  He attacked the cops, capturing weapons and ammo.

Kunar Province:  In Khas Kunar District, district police officials claim 20 local cops had their houses set on fire by Mujahideen.  The police families had already fled their homes due to battles.  No comment by Mujahideen groups.

Laghman Province: In Qarghayee District, 10 ANA soldiers switched sides and joined local Mujahideen.

Nangarhar Province: In Maulawi Khales town, the provincial governor reported an explosion that wounded ten people, including cops.  No word on what caused the explosion.

The Afghan Interior Ministry reports that at least 37 people killed, 17 wounded in battles in the provinces of Helmand, Kunar, Nooristan, Maidan Wardak, Laghman, Kandahar, Nangarhar, Ghazni, Herat and Nimroz.

The U.S. Department of Defense has canceled the purchase of Russian helicopters for Afghanistan.  The United States can no longer pay for them!  The total cost to buy 63 Russian made ‘copters would have seen U.S. military officials stealing $1.1 billion USD from taxpayers!

Evil U.S. political leaders, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry and Laura Bush, are campaigning to convince U.S. taxpayers to spend more money on Afghanistan. Clinton admitted that it was her personal agenda to “…try to make that argument to the Congress and to the American public” to justify spending tax money the U.S. government doesn’t really have.  This while the U.S. economy continues to crash and burn!

U.S. tax dollar funded Zurmat Material Testing Laboratory, affiliated with the Zurmat Group, is actually a Mujahideen financing group.   The U.S. Special Investigator  General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) discovered that Zurmat, an Afghan company, was actually identified by U.S. Department of Defense officials as being a supporter of Mujahideen, two months before paying the company billions in U.S. tax dollars!

More than 100 Army National Guard soldiers, from the U.S. state of Michigan’s 1460th Transportation Company, deployed to Afghanistan.

National Geographic reports that Afghanistan National Parks has hired the country’s first female park rangers, at the Band-e Amir National Park.  But even the United States did not hire female rangers until 1969.

Fukushima, International

More Fukushima Fallout: New radiation leak, can kill you in 20 minutes! Too many illegal & incompetent employees! 65% of evacuees refuse to return home!

07 December 2013 (19:51 UTC-07 Tango 06 December 2013)/03 Safar 1435/16 Azar 1392/05 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

“Yes, we did a shoddy job. The quality of what we did was low, but what else would you expect…”-unnamed illegally hired Fukushima Daiichi employee

A Reuters report says the numerous leaking water storage tanks around Fukushima Daiichi were built by illegal employees, most had no training.

According to the report, a third party contractor hired the nuke plant workers from the poorest parts of Japan.  It is supposedly illegal in Japan for a third party to hire your employees.  On top of that, the third (fourth?) party contractor is not even registered to do work in Japan.

Blame it on Japan’s corporate policy to sub contract all work.  Here’s how it went: Tokyo Electric Power Company hired Taisei to handle the construction of the massive contaminated water storage tank farms.  But Taisei sub contracted to Tokyo Engineering Corporation (TEC).  TEC then sub contracted the job of hiring employees to a Token Kogyo.

Those employees were told to keep quite about how they got their jobs, and not to complain: “Even if we didn’t agree with how things were being done, we had to keep quiet and work fast.”-Uechi Yoshitatsu, former bus driver hired to work at Fukushima Daiichi who blew the whistle on the illegal hiring operation

I’ve written before about how nuclear plant workers in Japan are considered the untouchable class, most of the workers are the least educated in a country that leads the World in test taking skills.   They’re called “throwaway workers”.

“I have seen many younger workers drop out of the clean-up after they had their wages skimmed or after facing dangers that were not explained to them. Without stronger labor protection, there’s no way the decommissioning project will succeed.”-Uechi Yoshitatsu, whistleblower

Uechi actually made an audio recording of his boss, who works for TEC, admitting they lie to government officials and the general public: “When it comes to our sub-contractors, we register them all as TEC. If you want to say that’s a forgery, then, yes, it’s a forgery.”-unnamed TEC supervisor at Fukushima Daiichi

Now realize that if those in charge of the never ending nuke disaster at Fukushima Daiichi knowingly lie, then we should expect the next revelation to be much worse than reported.  TEPCo is reporting a new radiation leak, from a vent pipe, that is emitting 25 sieverts per hour!  That will kill you after 20 minutes of exposure!

The pipe was originally installed after the nuclear explosions, to help vent radioactive gasses from damaged reactor buildings.

Remember when the Japanese government promised evacuees they’d be returned home within six months?  I do, I wrote about it (check my Fukushima archives).  Well, the majority of nuclear evacuees are now refusing to go home!

This involves the towns of Okuma and Futaba.  A survey showed about 65% of the evacuees now realize they can not return to their homes.  They blame the comedy of corporate errors led by TEPCo as the main reason.

Most evacuees are living in temporary mobile homes.

In the city of Minami-Soma, the Shoei High School finally closed down due to lack of students.  The 110 students have never returned to the school that is only 22km (13.6 miles) from Fukushima Daiichi.

Remember when I reported that British Bilderberger, Barbara Judge took over the ‘safety programs’ for TEPCo?  Now there are reports Japan is about to create a whole new nuclear agency based on United Kingdom’s National Decommissioning Authority.

Japanese officials told Reuters that it’s looking more and more like the national government will have to take direct charge in “decommissioning” Fukushima Daiichi, because TEPCo continues to prove its incompetence.

Japan currently has no government agency for oversight of nuke plant decommissioning!  Sometimes I just want to yell at the Japanese “Baka!”

More Fukushima Fallout! Canada confirms spike in radiation! Tritium to be flooded into Pacific Ocean, on purpose! Victims being screwed over, someone stop TEPCo!

05 December 2013 (22:30 UTC-07 Tango 04 December 2013)/01 Safar 1435/14 Azar 1392/03 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

“You cannot keep storing the water forever. We have to make choice comparing all risks involved.”-Tanaka Shunichi, with Japan’s Nuclear Regulation Authority, commenting on why deadly tritium will be intentionally flooded into the Pacific

The International Atomic Energy Agency is supporting the plan to purposely release tritium into the Pacific Ocean.  Juan Carlos Lentijo, of the IAEA, gave this explanation: “…what we are trying to say here is to consider this as one of the options to contribute to a good balance of risks and to stabilize the facility for the long term.”

Officials from the IAEA and Japan’s NRA, admitted that at least 700-thousand metric tons of radioactive water has been poured into the Pacific Ocean since 2011.  That contaminated water contained cesium, iodine, strontium and tritium.

Tritium has a half life of about 12.4 years (it’s still a threat after 12.4 years).  It can be absorbed through skin, inhaled or ingested when you eat contaminated food or drink contaminated water.

Canadian officials have admitted that on 20 March 2011, there was a huge spike in radiation readings on the Pacific coast of Canada.  This data was apparently kept secret until now, however, a journalist reported towards the end of 2011 that Canadian radiation detection sites recorded iodine-131 levels “…nearly 1,000 times background levels in the air at Resolute Bay, Nunavut.”

Keep in mind those radiation levels were after the Fukushima Daiichi  airborne radiation plume had traveled across the Pacific Ocean.  Back in 2011 Health Canada, which is in charge of radiation readings, continued to downplay such reports and said there was no health risk.

To add insult to injury, the Japanese government is limiting victims of the ongoing Fukushima Daiichi disaster.  Japan’s Diet is giving victims ten years to sue for damages.  The arrogant politicians think they are being generous because that’s an increase from the previous three year limit!  Remember, Tokyo Electric Power Company says the ongoing disaster, I mean “decommissioning process”, will last at least 40 years!

Nuclear power analysts say TEPCo is full of shit and needs to be stopped: “With the sheer number of things that are going wrong, they should be more openly bringing in help. TEPCo is a nuclear power producer, not a cleanup operation. There are people with expertise in decommissioning reactors, and they need to be brought in whether they are Japanese, European or American. Every time they have a problem, they come up with a solution that takes a long time to bring in, and then doesn’t even solve the problem!”-Ken Buesseler, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute

Victims should be given indefinite time to sue for damages!

China about to land Jade Rabbit on the Moon!

02 December 2013 (20:31 UTC-07 Tango 01 December 2013)/28 Muharram 1435/11 Azar 1392/30 Jia-Zi (10th month) 4711

“We will strive for our space dream as part of the Chinese dream of national rejuvenation!“–Zhang Zhenzhong, director of Xichang launch center

China is about to become the third country to land on the Moon.   The rocket carrying the probe and lunar rover blasted off early this morning.

The Chang’e-3 carries a lunar rover called Yutu (Jade Rabbit).  If successful China will follow the Soviet Union and United States, and become the third country to land on the Moon.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 09-12 November 2013: Illegal drugs set new records under U.S. watch! Big bank gives away $220-million! U.S. Spec Ops interferes with investigations into their crimes! Afghans want U.S. zero option! U.S. vets suffer lung damage!

Ghazni Province: In Moqor District, four National Directorate of Security (NDS) agents were captured by Mujahideen.  Mujahideen will let the spies go if the Afghan government releases people held in prisons.

Helmand Province: In Greshk District, battles between Afghan government forces and Mujahideen left at least five people dead and dozens wounded.

Kabul Province:  On the west side of Kabul City, the evil British empire inaugurated the official opening of the largest military academy in Afghanistan.  It’s also known as the Sandhurst of Afghanistan. It will employ 120 trainers mainly from United Kingdom, and it cost British taxpayers about $42-million USD.  Also in Kabul City, the Ministry of Interior Affairs reported that 20 metric tons of illegal drugs were destroyed.  Ministry officials admit that Kabul City, where U.S. military leaders are headquartered, is now the main transit hub for illegal drugs trafficking.

Kunar Province: The NGO Integrity Watch Afghanistan is accusing local police of stealing valuable Chromite from mining operations.  The Ministry of Interior Affairs denies such a thing is happening, yet also revealed that some local cops have been arrested for that very crime!

Maidan Wardak Provence:  The NDS has ended its investigation into U.S. special forces involvement in the torture deaths of at least 17 men.  NDS officials said they could not proceed because U.S. special forces are actively interfering with the investigation! (and these special forces ass holes will probably be turned loose on the U.S. population when the shit finally hits the fan in the United States)

The Asian Development Bank is giving Afghanistan $220-million USD, supposedly for road construction.

United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) reports massive increases in the seizure of illegal drugs in 2012: Heroin 250.4%, opium 212.6% and hashish 328%.   This corresponds to the increase in opium production.  It’s obvious that the U.S. is behind such drugs production since opium production skyrocketed after the U.S. invasion.  However, dumb UNODC ignorantly said “…this report will serve as an effective step in capacity building of national institutions in the country in order to address the drivers of poppy cultivation, trafficking and drug use.”   Gee, you’d think after a hundred years of fighting illegal drugs the Western World would have that figured out by now!

Evil British empire Defense Secretary, Philip Hammond, warned the government of Afghanistan that the United Kingdom will end relations if Afghanistan does not sign onto the Obama regime’s so called “security” deal for 2014 and beyond.

More and more political groups in Afghanistan are openly opposed to any “security” deal with the Obama regime.  Obama threatens a “zero option”, meaning all U.S. personnel will be pulled out if a deal is not signed.  Mmmm, isn’t that what Obama led the people of the U.S. to believe would happen in 2014?   Today the Afghan National Unity Front, made up of religious clerics, tribal elders and university students, said bring on the Zero Option you Obama biyatch!

The U.S. Department of State continues to refuse visa applications from Afghans who work as interpreters for U.S. forces, even though it is public knowledge they will be assassinated if the U.S. ever leaves Afghanistan.

The U.S. Department of Defense might require mandatory lung testing for personnel returning from Iraq or Afghanistan.  That’s because there’s a huge increase in the number of veterans developing lung disorders.  Even U.S. government contractors are developing lung problems and are filing lawsuits against their employers.  Don’t blame depleted uranium as the only cause.  It turns out that military personnel are burning not just ordinary trash in their burn pits, but highly toxic plastics and even heavy metal laden batteries, and this is done without respirators!

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 05-08 November 2013: Denmark gives away more of its taxpayer’s money! “Hugely experienced” Red Coat killed! HRW accuses U.S. of torture killings!

Helmand Province:  In Lashkargah City, an evil British empire Red Coat was killed during a suicide car bomb attack.  Lieutenant Colonel Hywel Lewis said the Red Coat was “A hugely experienced soldier…”  Also, a British court found an evil Royal Marine Red Coat guilty of summarily executing a wounded Afghan (a war crime).  It was caught on video, as well as the evil Red Coat admitting on camera that he “broke the Geneva Convention.”  The incident happened in 2011, two other Red Coat Marines were acquitted.

Kandahar Province: In Spin Boldak District, police shot a suicide bomber, who still managed to blow himself up.  Cops claim only the suicide bomber was killed, and nobody was wounded.

Khost Province:  In Khost City, a motorcycle bomb killed three National Directorate of Security (NDS) agents, and wounded two others.

Kunduz Province: In Imam Sahib District, the nephew of a prominent anti-U.S. political party leader was arrested for killing a cop by running him over, and shooting a civilian dead, and for picking up prostitutes (adultery).

Logar Province:  Russian officials have denied reports that they are in talks to free a pilot who was captured by Mujahideen.

Maidan Wardak Province: Human Rights Watch accusing U.S. special ops forces, known as ODA 324, of conducting torture killings in Nerkh District: “The Nerkh incidents should be investigated rigorously, impartially, and transparently….it is clear that crimes occurred, U.S. authorities need to establish what exactly happened and who is responsible.”-Andrea Prasow, HRW

Zabul Province: In Qalar City, the bodies of seven Afghan National Army soldiers were found.  ANA officials say they were killed by Mujahideen last month.  Also, four women, two children and an old man were killed when they drove over a landmine.

A U.S. Department of Defense report says Afghan government forces casualties are up 79%!  The increase coincides with a decrease in U.S. led NATO/ISAF casualties, because Afghan forces are taking on more battles with Mujahideen as U.S. led forces back down.

Reports that more and more analysts inside the U.S. Department of Defense now believe the only way to end the illegal war in Afghanistan is to officially recognize the Taliban.

The Washington Post reports that the U.S. government spent $7-billion USD supposedly trying to stop opium poppy growing in Afghanistan.  The Washington Post also called Obama’s supposed anti-opium efforts “one of the starkest failures” of his administration.  That’s because Afghan opium production continues to set World records.  Realize that despite the lies of the the Bush Jr administration, the Taliban actually eradicated opium production once they were in charge of Afghanistan. It was the U.S. that brought it back after the 2001 invasion!  Mmmm, was that 7-billion in U.S. tax dollars really spent to stop opium production?

Time reporting that the official U.S. policy for what to do with billion of dollars worth of U.S. military equipment in Afghanistan is to “Sell, Give Away and Destroy”. 

A video has surfaced of U.S. troops overseeing the torture of prisoners by Afghan cops.  Watch it here.

The Afghan Interior Ministry claims government forces killed 14 Mujahideen and captured 53, in battles in the provinces of Helmand, Ghor, Farah, Paktia, Ghazni, Kandahar, Kunduz and Nuristan.

The Afghan Finance Ministry reported that $5.7 million USD has been stolen.  Two ministry employees are under arrest.

The Kingdom of Denmark promised to give Afghanistan $100-million every year for the next five years.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 01-04 November 2013: U.S. taxes deliver more Russian helicopters! Government cops extorting money from civilians! Afghanistan buying fuel, from Russia!

Baghlan Province: A wedding was bombed.  At least eleven people wounded.  No explanation for the bombing, but local officials are conveniently blaming “anti-government forces”.

Ghazni Province: Major battles between Afghan government forces and Mujahideen reported in Andar and Geru districts.  At least 21 people killed, dozens wounded.

Ghor Province:  In Du Layna District, a truck carrying election officials was blown up.  Six election officials wounded.

Kandahar Province: In Kandahar City, a cop was shot and killed in a drive by shooting, police have little info to go on.

Logar Province: Confirmation that Mujahideen captured a pilot working for Russia early in the Gregorian year.  Associated Press reported that Russian official are now trying to work a deal for his release.  Mujahideen also captured a pilot from Kyrgyzstan.  They’ve already released all the Turkish passengers on the helicopter they captured.  In Pul-E-Alam, a U.S. Army Sergeant 1st Class (E7) from Kansas was killed when attacked by Mujahideen.  He was also a former Military Science Instructor with the Department of Military Science at Pittsburg State University.

Maidan Wardak Province:  In Syedabad District, four children killed, one wounded, after a mortar round exploded.  They were collecting scrap metal and found it and took it home, were it exploded.

Paktia Province:  In Gardez City, Afghanistan’s version of Homeland Security, National Directorate of Security (NDS), reported they captured a truck loaded with 50 metric tons of TNT explosives.  NDS claim the TNT was meant for terrorists, but who knows, there are so many mining ops going on now maybe some mining company was trying to smuggle in dirt cheap TNT?

Paktika Province:  In Khair Kot District, a bomb exploded in a Mosque.  There were cops in the Mosque at the time, three were killed one wounded.  Local police officials did not mention any civilian casualties, or why the cops were in the Mosque.

Uruzgan Province:  In Dehrawood District, a cop was killed when Mujahideen attacked a checkpoint.  Police say four Mujahideen were killed.

U.S. led NATO and Afghan government forces claim to have killed 17 Mujahideen in battles in the provinces of Kandahar, Paktika, Farah and Nimroz.

Integrity Watch Afghanistan says their latest investigation reveals that 60% of Afghan government highway cops are extorting money from civilians!  They say it’s happening at police checkpoints, and involve an average of six out of every ten checkpoints.  The claims by Integrity Watch Afghanistan are based on admissions by at least 370 cops!

The Afghan Ministry of Commerce and Trade announced the purchase of 22-thousand metric tons of fuel from Russia. Mmmm, I wonder where they’re getting the money to do that?

Russia announced they will deliver 30 helicopters to Afghanistan in 2014.  The Mil Mi-12V-5 ‘copters were paid for by the U.S. Department of Defense.  This is on top of the 12 Mi-12V-5 ‘copters paid for by U.S. taxpayers in 2012, and the 12 Mi-17V-5 ‘copters as well!
