    U.S. Soldiers Pack Their Bags

    U.S. troops pack up millions of items in Iraq - Aug 2010
    Soldiers are now doing inventory and accounting in preparation for exit


    [LINKHOTTED]
    Iraqi truck drivers help guide a U.S. military mine-resistant armored vehicle (MRAP) onto a flatbed truck set to leave Iraq at a staging yard at Joint Base Balad, north of Baghdad, Iraq. Everything from helicopters to printer cartridges are being wrapped and stamped and shipped out of Iraq in one of the most monumental withdrawal operations the American military has ever carried out.

    JOINT BASE BALAD, Iraq ? Everything from helicopters to printer cartridges is being wrapped and stamped and shipped out of Iraq. U.S. military bases that once resembled small towns have transformed into a cross between giant post offices and Office Depots.

    Soldiers who battled through insurgents and roadside bombs are now doing inventory and accounting. Their task: reverse over the course of months a U.S. military presence that built up over seven years of war.

    Good luck guys. If it goes anything like the pullout from Desert Storm, half that shit will be buried in a pit out in the Iraqi desert, the other half will take days of continual washing to get all that fucking sand out.

    HOOOOOOAAAAAHHHH!!!

      At least some of them are coming home
      Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
      think about that

                      The son of one of my old comrade in arms...just left for Iraq in June...it is his third tour in Iraq and he has severed two tours in Afghanistan. His twenty will be up during this tour and he has not made up his mind if he is going to stay for thirty...or get out at twenty. He is a helicopter pilot...and he is a W-4. His wife is also a helicopter pilot and they have served together on three of his five tours...but she did not go with the unit on this tour...she is currently a helicopter instructor...state side.

                          Where do they stage all that equipment for cleaning before bringing back to the states? Or do they really just leave a lot of it in some bunker in BFE; "bum fucked Egypt"? For some reason, I thought I read an article saying it would take years to properly clean and bring back most of the equipment so as to not bring back contamination ( bugs, seeds, snakes on planes, spiders on ships, etc.).

                              I hope it is true, but it sure sounds like a propaganda piece to me

                                          They'll set up massive lots with power washers. Crews will pw that shit until it passes inspection. That could be 12 hours or 3 days. (per vehicle). Anything that is deemed "a piece of shit" will be burned & buried.

                                              Around 6 of my high school buddies had take off ceremonies today to head over to Afghanistan.

We do not need Iraqi oil if we chose to not need it and we sure as Hell don't need Afghani heroin. If there are terroists in Afghan, we know where they are so we should just carpet bomb the shit out of them and split.

We do not need Iraqi oil if we chose to not need it and we sure as Hell don't need Afghani heroin. If there are terroists in Afghan, we know where they are so we should just carpet bomb the shit out of them and split.

All this so the suits in the government top have another little oil source to makey money off of. A crime by them of world scale, using their own civilians to sacrifice their lives for the top dogs' pockets. That's why I would never join the army, it isnt about 'defending your country' anymore, you are just being used by businessmen with your life on the line, not for you or your families safety but for more money for those corrupt assholes in politics and linked companies. It's really fucking sad.

It is not necessary for the USA to "go there" other than in the form of repeated air and naval strikes to eliminate Akmajineboob's nuclear weapons project, which is an entirely different kettle of nuclear fish. Various allies of the USA will assist in that little party as those nations, being far more civilized than Iran, understand the danger and are willing to cooperate to do something about it.

It should also be noted that The Poser is giving nuclear and space technology to................Indonesia, which island nation has announced its intention to contruct..............Hydrogen Fucking Bombs.

                                                                                                                                          I think it was Bin Laden who said something like this "Muslims welcome death and Americans fear it."

                                                                                                                                          And it wasn't Obama who sent them. He's bringing them home.

See how easy that is? Problem solved.
