SOMEWHERE SOMEBODY CARES ABOUT THESE TROOPS IN AFGHANISTAN (GREAT VIDEO)

This is a great music video showing our troops in Afghanistan. Most people, especially the news media, are not interested in what our troops are doing in Afghanistan but somewhere somebody has a son, daughter, husband, wife, boyfriend or girlfriend serving in the United States miliary in Afghanistan. It's just a crying shame the media has abandoned our troops. The media has, but this former Army Combat Engineer and blogger will never forget our brave troops.

NEWS ALERT: "GREEN ZONE" HIT BY AT LEAST 3 MORTAR ROUNDS DURING BIDEN VISIT

BAGHDAD —Three large explosions near the American embassy shook downtown Baghdad Tuesday night, at the same time as Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. was scheduled to be in the compound visiting with American officials.

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/16/world/middleeast/16iraq.html?ref=world

It was unclear if he was in the building at the time of the attack.

There were no immediate reports of casualties and it was unclear if the American embassy itself had been struck, according to witnesses.

The first mortar landed short of the embassy, according to a western security official who witnessed the attack. That rocket fell within an apartment across the street where local Iraqis live.

A second mortar landed at about 7:10 p.m., but it was unclear where it landed.

US MARINES: SADLY TOO MANY AMERICANS HAVE FORGOTTEN THESE ELITE WARRIORS (GREAT VIDEO)

As the war in Afghanistan enters into a new and very dangerous stage, and the situation in Iraq continues to deteriorate, sadly too many Americans have turned their back on our elite warriors who are deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan. This video is tribute to the US Marines who are doing what they are trained to do in Afghanistan. The media no longer covers the war, but this blogger made up his mind over a year ago that the accomplishments of these warriors would not go unnoticed. Since we started our blog over 255,000 people have visited the blog. We are doing our part. Are you?

NEWS ALERT: 5 US SOLDIERS AND 50 AFGHAN CIVILIANS KILLED IN TWO ATTACKS

KABUL — About 50 civilians, security forces and militants were killed in a wave of violence around Afghanistan, including a bomb that left 14 Afghan travelers dead in one of the country's most dangerous regions.

http://tinyurl.com/qu3xxs

Five American soldiers died in two attacks using roadside bombs. The attacks Friday and Saturday reached a broad swath of the country, demonstrating the spread of the Taliban insurgency, which had been largely confined to the country's south and east in the years after the 2001 U.S. invasion.

Half of those killed in the most recent attacks were civilians, who often find themselves caught in the grinding war between the Taliban and U.S. and NATO forces.
