World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 11-14 September 2013: 73% of U.S. casualties under Obama Regime! If you ride a motorcycle you are the enemy! Karzai asks for more support from Russia!

A U.S. Army Staff Sergeant from Fontana, California, died from non-combat wounds.  The incident happened back in April, the U.S. Army refused to explain what happened.  An Indiana Army National Guard Staff Sergeant died at Camp Phoenix, Kabul.  He died from an “illness”.

A report by CNSNews says 73% of U.S. military casualties in Afghanistan have happened under the regime of Barack Obama.

Kunduz Province, Chahar Darah District, reports that U.S. led government forces conducted night time Israeli style home invasions. 16 people kidnapped.  There are also reports that contracted government security personnel are confiscating motorcycles.  So far 150 ‘cycles have been stolen by government forces in the province.

Helmand Province, Marjah District, reports say that a man who had just loaded his motorcycle with a container of fuel for his farm operation, was killed by U.S. led drone strike.  Apparently U.S. led NATO-ISAF forces thought it was a bomb!  In Washir District, reports that U.S. led government forces conducted night time Israeli style home invasions. Six “white beard” elders kidnapped.  In Babaji District, at least three civilians kidnapped during U.S. led government forces night time Israeli style home invasions.

Nangarhar Province, Mujahideen claim a successful attack on Jalalabad airbase.  They say three rockets damaged the runway where drones (UAV) are parked.  Three rockets hit the helicopter park.  They say eight drones destroyed and two ‘copters destroyed.  Dozens of casualties.

Herat Province, suicide bombers attacked the U.S. consulate.  A local hospital official said two security guards were killed and 19 people wounded.  Mujahideen say casualties are closer to 100, because they used eight metric tons of explosives and eight suicide bombers (one suicide bomber was supposedly a doctor)!

Paktika Province, a suicide bomber hit an Afghan government military-police convoy.  21 people wounded, about half are civilians.

Kandahar Province, a suicide bomber blew himself up near a NATO convoy from the Kandahar airbase.  According to local police only civilians were hurt.  Three killed (not counting the bomber), six wounded.  However, Mujahideen say dozens of military personnel became casualties, and two armored vehicles destroyed.

Ghazni Province, local police confirmed a 15 year old boy was assassinated by Mujahideen.  Mujahideen say the boy was acting as a spy for local police.

Uruzgan Province, Dehrawod District, reports that U.S. led government forces conducted Israeli style home invasions. One child killed, two wounded.

Mujahideen report more than 50 cops from across Afghanistan, joined them to fight the U.S. backed government.

President Hamid Karzai asked Russian President, Vladimir Putin, for more military help.  The two government officials were attending the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (formerly known as Shanghai Five) summit.  Afghan news media claim Putin promised to provide the Afghan government with military equipment.

A Canadian veteran of Afghanistan has published a book, in which he states that U.S. led NATO troops deliberately used the bodies of dead Afghans to set traps for Mujahideen.  He admitted it didn’t work.

The U.S. Department of Defense revealed they are pushing wounded personnel back into the combat zone sooner than usual: “The Intra-Theater Care Program, which the Air Force has operated at an undisclosed location in South West Asia since 2008, is designed to return personnel who have been wounded or injured in Afghanistan to duty there within 30 days.”-Stars and Stripes

The UN Integrated Regional Information Networks reporting that ever since the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan, land is being stolen from rightful owners, and is the main cause of ongoing fighting: “In a 2008 survey by Oxfam, respondents said land issues were the leading cause of insecurity…..Higher-profile fights between government and international forces and anti-government militants were considered far less important.”

A Chinese company, Panyn Chu King Steel Limited, has backed out of a $500 million USD deal to build a gas pipeline from from Iran through Afghanistan to Pakistan.  It has something to do with financing, but Iran says it is willing to finance the whole operation.

An Indian company, Gammon India, has been picked to build a power plant to supply 7-thousand families with electricity.  The estimated $7-million cost of the operation is being paid for by the German taxpayers!

False Flag Gun Control BS: Navy Yard Shooting, Sandy Hook Shooting caused by prescription drugs gone wrong! Citizens being turned into gun wielding zombies!

23 September 2013 (13:11 UTC-07 Tango)/18 Dhu ‘l-Qa’da 1434/01 Mehr 1391/19 Xin-You (8th month) 4711

“The shooting at the Navy Yard was not the result of absence of gun control.  The shootings in the Navy Yard were the result of irresponsible distribution of Selective Serotonin Receptor Inhibitors [SSRI], or anti-depressant drugs such as Prozac and Zoloft.  This particular man was treated at a naval hospital and was given one of these SSRIs…….This is exactly the same story as the Adam Lanza story in Connecticut.  He too was being treated with these SSRI drugs.”-Eugene Michael Jones, Catholic, former professor, media commentator and the current editor of Fidelity-Culture Wars magazine

Jones has shown that all the recent mass shootings perpetrated by a Lone Gunman, including the Sandy Hook school shootings in Connecticut, the Bat Man movie shootings in Colorado, and the mass killings of Afghans by Lone U.S. military gunman, are all connected by the fact that the shooters were all being given SSRI drugs.

In the case of Adam Lanza he was forced on the drug by his mother (after a psychiatrist took him off the dangerous drug) at school official’s insistence (explaining why he killed his mom and then attacked the school).

Note that in most civilian cases of mass shootings the main stream news media always says the shooter had some kind of mental problem.  They then push not only gun control but mental health care.  But, the fact is these shooters were already under mental health care when they went off the deep end.  It was mental health care in the form of relatively new drugs that caused the mass killings!

One thing still bothers me.  How did the civilian shooters, with mental health problems, come into possession of so many guns and so much ammo in such short amount of time when those things are becoming more and more expensive?

In the case of the Afghanistan massacre, perpetrated by U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Robert Bales, not only was he on anti-depressants he was also given Mefloquine Hydrochloride, a anti-malaria drug that even the U.S. Army has admitted causes people to go nuts.

What’s going on with all these homicidal zombie drugs being given to U.S. citizens?

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 06-08 September 2013: Pashtuns warn of major war after 2014 U.S.-NATO pullout! Germany preps for future wars!

Kunar Province, Watapur District, a U.S. drone strike on a bus kills 15 people.  U.S. officials claim all were militants, however, the local government says at least nine of those killed were innocent civilians.  Officials also say most of the ‘militants’ killed were not Afghans, but ethnic Arabs.  However, local Mujahideen say all those on the bus were civilians and not militants.

Maidan Wardak Province, Maidan Shar city, four National Security Directorate (Afghan version of Homeland Security Department) agents were killed by suicide bomber.  Local police reported that Mujahideen are getting better at targeting government employees.  Mujahideen claim they were targeting the Wardak Provincial Reconstruction Team.  The Wardak PRT is operated by Turkish NATO forces.  In Chaghto District, reports that a U.S. led government forces Israeli style home invasion resulted in six people being kidnapped.  In Nirkh District, Mujahideen report routing a U.S.-Afghan government offensive.

Zabul Province, Shahjoi District, U.S. led government forces conducted another Israeli style home invasion in the middle of the night.  Two civilians killed.

Badakhshan Province, Wardoj District, Afghan National Army claims its Operation Hindukush has killed 24 Mujahideen.  Mujahideen say it’s the U.S. backed government that lost 25 troops, only five Mujahideen killed, eight wounded by U.S. airstrikes called in by government puppets.  In Jaram District, Mujahideen attacked a government FOB, claiming to have killed four U.S.-Afghan puppet soldiers, and wounding seven others.

Helmand Province, Marjah District, Mujahideen report they’ve launched operations to take control of the district.  So far they report capturing two government checkpoints/FOBs.  In Babaji District, three people were kidnapped during U.S.-Afghan government Israeli style home invasion.

Ghazni Province, Andar District, local cops report an attack by Mujahideen on one of their checkpoints.  They claim to have killed ten Mujahideen, and wounded four.   Also, Mujahideen freed a female parliament member in exchange for seven prisoners (three men and four women) held by the government.  What’s unusual about this case is that the female politician’s own family denied she had been kidnapped!  In Khogiyani District, locals say U.S. forces kidnapped four people in a night time Israeli style home invasion.

Herat Province, people began attacking the Iranian consulate, saying their visa applications are not being handled properly.  Local police responded by shooting into the crowd.  One civilian killed, two wounded.  Two cops wounded.  In Shindand District, Mujahideen say they shot down a training aircraft, killing the instructor pilot and student pilot.

Kandahar Province, Maiwand District, reports that U.S.-Afghan government artillery rounds hit a village.  Five people killed, four wounded, all children.

Administrative Director of the FATA (Federally Administered Tribal Areas, in Pakistan) Research Center, Mansur Khan Mahsud, says Pashtun Mujahideen are preparing for a major civil war in Afghanistan after the supposed U.S.-NATO 2014 pullout.  The civil war could reunite Pashtuns in Afghanistan and western Pakistan.  Prior to the interference of the British empire western Pakistan was part of the majority Pashtun area of Afghanistan.  Typical of  British meddling they split the Pashtuns when they created Pakistan. Mehsud warned a major war to return the Pashtuns to their former power and status is on its way: “Everyone knows that when NATO and the American troops leave Afghanistan there will be fighting between Pashtuns and non-Pashtuns.”

Germany’s involvement in Afghanistan is preparing it for future wars: “In future, we need a clear strategy on what we want to achieve with a mission.  And we then need sufficient means to make it happen.  For years, the Bundeswehr wasn’t equipped to deal with combat situations.  It wasn’t until many lives were lost [in Afghanistan] that we started to change our focus.”-Roderich Kiesewetter, Christian Democrat member of parliament

After four months, Pakistan is resuming the transportation of oil to U.S.-NATO-ISAF personnel in Afghanistan: “We resumed these supplies from today after hiring the services of a private firm, which will provide security to our convoys from Karachi to Torkham.”-Azad Khan Afridi, transportation contractor

The State Oil Company of Azerbaijan Republic (SOCAR) has been invited to take part in developing Afghanistan’s natural gas fields.

The evil terrorist organization, known as U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), is accused of “reckless disregard toward the management of U.S. taxpayer dollars.”  The claim comes as a result of an independent audit by Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR).  SIGAR says USAID wasted $236 million tax dollars on a health program in Afghanistan.  USAID simply gave the money to the Afghan government, without any oversight as to how the money would be spent!

Afghanistan’s Interior Ministry reports that in the past six months 1795 Afghan National Police personnel were killed, and 2700 wounded, while fighting for the gott damned United States!  That’s double last years rate!!!

The Obama regime has kept their promise to cut pay raises for U.S. military forces.  It’s part of Obama’s Fiscal 2014 Budget.  The expected pay raise was pathetic anyway.  The Congress set it at 1.8%, but Obama used his executive privilege to cut it to 1%.

If the document is agreed upon during this government, then it will be good, otherwise the next president can discuss whether to accept it or not.”
