8 Shaw Air Force Officers Reprimanded in Sexual Misconduct Investigation. TSgt Jennifer Smith; Quote "The Air Force's environment is so exceedingly hostile to women that many suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder as a result" http://www.theitem.com/news/shaw-air-force-officers-reprimanded-in-sexual-misconduct-investigation/article_abe8752e-94df-5294-8924-3b70ba163924.html

A black/asian mixed race female that happens to be gay sure get a lot of events/months to celebrate their heritage, pride, sexual orientation, race etc.

Sorry, I have added a warning. "Warning I am 100% sure the NSA will monitor you if you open any of these links". These links are from Somalia news outlets/sources and provide a different angle/spin on Somali garden spots like Baraawe. Short "NSA SAFE" version; Phase 1- Al-Shabab/Al-Qaeda send reinforcements to Baraawe. Phase 11 - Al-Shabab/Al-Qaeda conduct a live fire exercise on the beautiful Baraawe beach front as the local civilian population watches the action unfold. The local folks seem satisfied that their little slice of heaven is safe once again from assault by sea. RR location=good fishing.

I believe the RAF was partially responsible for perimeter security at this location. It is also being reported that Major General Gurganus reduced the number of Marines patrolling the perimeter from 325 to 100 one month before the attack. This reduction of security personnel sounds somewhat like the situation leading up to the Benghazi attack.

Question; Does the USMC have a dedicated full time force that's primary mission is to provide airfield security and resource protection, similar to the USAF Security Forces?

You can add two more Generals to the fired list; That's like 7 stars in four days. http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/two-marine-generals-fired-for-security-lapses-in-afghanistan/2013/09/30/b2ccb8a6-29fe-11e3-b139-029811dbb57f_story.html?hpid=z4

Close to the "big red button". http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory/nuke-commander-suspended-amid-probe-20406208 See what you made me post.

You may need to recalibrate your sarcasm meter. I consider the Benghazi rescue one of the best US effort ever and have posted such statements to that effect.

I see Al Qaeda is at it again. It sounds like there were some American casualties and some of them are US embassy staff/family members. There is also a possibility of US hostages. I think we are going on 14 plus hours since this started with no end in sight. I wonder where the US fighter aircraft and rescue forces are. You would think we would of been able to get there much faster, take out the bad guys, and make a rescue by now. I know it took us FOREEVER to rescue the folks in Benghazi but you would think with the embassy just a few miles away it would not take 14 plus hours to get-it-done.

Twist and turns in Syria continue, the fog is thick. Before this is all over we may end up having to bomb the rebels to ensure the security of the CW stockpiles. http://www.military.com/daily-news/2013/09/14/securing-syrias-weapons-may-require-us-troops.html?comp=7000023317828&rank=1 http://www.cnn.com/2013/09/14/politics/us-syria/index.html?hpt=hp_t1

+1, Putin sure has a nice little homestead in Sochi. http://www.chinapost.com.tw/news/detail.asp?id=150672 http://www.businessinsider.com/putin-palace-black-sea-2011-2?op=1

Putin has given one other Op-Ed to the NYTimes. There may be one thing that keeps Putin up at night and somewhere in these two Op-Eds is a common theme. http://www.nytimes.com/1999/11/14/opinion/why-we-must-act.html

Well I see Putin's trying to give the POTUS a way out of this cluster ^(@#. You know the Russian's are not always wrong and may have a vested interest in securing/destroying the chemical stock pile in Syria. They recently did try to warn us about the two little Chechen angels in Boston but we blew it. One of the concerns that Russia may have is the Chechen/Al Qaeda connection and the upcoming 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. Currently the second largest contingent of foreign rebel fighters in Syria are Chechen's, some are even rebel brigade commanders. Also, Sochi is located right next to Chechnya, Ingushestia, Pankisi Gorge, and a couple of other mountain/gorge Chechen strong holds. They almost are close enough to watch the action on the ski slopes with binos.

New Poll: Majority of Americans Approve of Sending Congress to Syria: http://www.theonion.com/articles/poll-majority-of-americans-approve-of-sending-cong,33752/

US policy on Syria should be; The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy; tactically and strategically.

No way. I don't see the USAF represented in those photos, must be faked/staged.

Today John Kerry stated: President Obama made a "Courageous Decision" to seek congressional approval on Syria. I think the President deserves a medal for this specific demonstration of courage in front of all Americans and the rest of the world. I can visualize the awards ceremony now. I imagine it will look something like when the Wizard of Oz presented the Cowardly Lion his Courage Medal and it will definitely complement his Nobel Peace Prize. Sorry no video clip of ceremony.

Some detailed videos and info on this subject. See video "video shows Assad's Forces loading, firing, munitions linked to chemical attacks". You can draw your own conclusion but I think I see a couple future targets. http://brown-moses.blogspot.com/

I made a mistake; Hell Cannon is used by Sunni rebels; HE warhead-yes / Chemical warhead-unknown. IRAM like the one in video with dead critters is used by government Shia militia (Hezbollah); HE warhead-yes / Chemical warhead-yes. All info is open source (Google).

Its a version of what used to be called a Improvised Lob Bomb. The IRA used a similar system in Northern Ireland. The next generation of the Lob Bomb is called the Improvised Rocket Assisted Munitions (IRAM). The IRAM was used against us in Iraq but its roots can be traced back to between the two Iraq wars. The Shiites used the IRAMs against Saddam's forces. The version in your video is called the Syrian Hell Cannon and its being used current by both the Syrian rebels and Syrian government militias (primarily), Hezbollah. The good folks in Gaza have versions of all this crap.

I wondered where all the pictures of the dead animals were and found this. Video of chemical weapon effects (looks like nerve agent) on animals/pets in Syria. Also, contains footage of spent chemical ordnance utilized. This video not suitable for children or PETA. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=124_1377308617

Latest; White House Team Briefs Congress: 'No doubt' on Syria chemical weapons'. The administration's 90-minute briefing on Syria for senior members of Congress was conducted by Secretary of State John Kerry, Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, National Security Adviser Susan Rice and other high-ranking US officials. I am glad to see this team that briefed congress has folks on it that Americans trust. To all Americans Susan Rice, in particular, stands out as one of the most trusted administration officials. Also, it would be nice to know who's payroll is former CIA Director George "SLAM DUNK" Tenet on this time around?

I don't know what the problem is with the British not getting on board. The U.S intelligence officials are saying that they have the goods on Assad and its a "SLAM DUNK" that his forces used chemical weapons.
