THIS BLOGGER WAS A "SAPPER" SO THIS ALL LOOKS FAMILIAR (WATCH VIDEO)
It is more than 50 years later since this blogger served as corporal with the United States Army Combat Engineers, but nothing much has changed for the men who serve in the United States Army Combat Engineers. Our job was to clear mine fields, build bridges, roads and airfields and in general support the infantry during the Korean War. In this video, you see a U.S. Army Combat Engineer unit doing pretty much the same thing. It's a dangerous job because you are working with explosives much of the time, and other times you are trying to build bridges so the infantry and armored units can cross a river. The Combat Engineers are known as "Sappers" and their motto is "Let Us Try."

NEWS ALERT: 3 U.S. SOLDIERS KILLED IN ATTACK ON IRAQ BASE
Three US soldiers killed in attack on Iraq base
(AFP)17 July 2009
http://tinyurl.com/l9658o
BAGHDAD - Three American soldiers have been killed in an attack on their base outside the southern Iraqi port city of Basra, the US military said on Friday.
“Three Multi-National Division-South soldiers were killed when Contingency Operating Base Basra was attacked by indirect fire at approximately 9:15 pm (0615 GMT) on July 16,” a military statement said, adding that the incident was under investigation.
The US military generally refers to mortars and rockets as “indirect fire.”
Thursday’s deaths marked the first US military personnel to die as a result of violence since American troops withdrew from Iraq’s urban centres on June 30, as part of a security pact between Washington and Baghdad that calls on US forces to leave Iraq by the end of 2011.
In total, 4,326 US soldiers have died in Iraq since the US-led invasion in 2003 that toppled dictator Saddam Hussein, according to an AFP tally based on independent website www.icasualties.org.

A VIDEO HISTORY OF THE SAD, SAD STORY OF WHAT AMERICA DID TO IRAQ
This video was made by the people of Iraq and there are many misspellings, but the message is still very clear. Iraq was a war that didn't have to be fought. The United States invaded Iraq on bogus information and lies and now six years later there perhaps as many as 100,000 Iraqis who have been killed and close to 4,500 young American soldiers and Marines have died in this needless war.
The "surge" was supposed to have put a stop to the killing in Iraq, but lately there have been more and more suicide bombings and as each day goes by Iraq again sinks further and further into a cauldron of chaos.
President Obama has now issued orders to sent more troops to Iraq to act as "trainers" in an attempt to train the Iraqi security forces and help in the reconstruction of Iraq---the same Iraq which we destroyed with our guns, tanks and airplanes.
What did the Iraqi people do to deserve this type of punishment and mutilation?
Isn't it time for the United States to just get out of Iraq for good and let Iraq run Iraq?

SUICIDE BOMBER KILLS 6 IN ANBAR PROVINCE WHERE SURGE WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE WORKED
The much touted "surge" was supposed to have taken care of all the violence and suicide bombings in the once infamous Anbar Province in Iraq, but a suicide bomber blew up a truck in Ramadi killing six Iraqis and wounding at least 20 others.
When you think of the "surge" think of this. Did you read or hear about any U.S. troops capturing or killing insurgents or Al Queda? No, of course you didn't because U.S. troops were used more for guard duty than combat during "the surge."
The success of "the surge" is a total myth as witnessed by what has been happening in Iraq the past couple of weeks where close to 300 Iraqis have been killed by suicide bombers.
Here is what happened in Iraq today.

Suicide Bomber Kills 6 in Iraqi City
By SAM DAGHER
THE NEW YORK TIMES
http://tinyurl.com/koyzcu
BAGHDAD — At least six people were killed and 25 injured when a suicide truck bomber detonated his payload Wednesday near a police checkpoint in the city of Ramadi west of Baghdad, according to local officials.
The attack happened during morning rush hour in the eastern part of Ramadi, the seat of Anbar Province, according to a police official speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the attack with the media. He said four of the dead were civilians and two were traffic police officers. Anbar’s governor Qassim Abed, who was reached by telephone, confirmed the attack but gave a death toll of five. He said the bomber set off the explosives just before reaching the checkpoint.
