"It's VERY HARD To Take Down A Chinook With An RPG! It Takes A VERY LUCKY Shot!"

[ismailaminaden]

OSAMA BIN LADEN SAID IT BEST: "The Crusader Americans do not know how to battle on the ground, they will be defeated"

[gabba1gabba1hey]

@ismailaminaden and look what happened: osama got killed by ground troops LOLLOL

[ismailaminaden]

@gabba1gabba1hey Apache-Helicopter ???? Yeah not quite my friend.

Either way, we Muslims believe "To Allah we belong and to Allah we return" !!

Osama bin Laden dying of old age, in a cripple position with pipes sticking out his mouth is unimaginable.

Rather to be executed by the "Enemy of Allah", for the sake of Allah and to have apparently refused to surrender and put up a fight even though he was out-numbered.

That just rings out his incredible bravery, as far as Islamic Heroes !!!

[jakespop67]

This guy should run for president ! He seems like the only one that knows what the hell is going on !!!

[SuperSealSniper]

A lucky shot or a special heat-seeking pakistan provided missile ?

[marbito11]

he also says it did happen before.

[YUSKHAN]

Have your ever heard of an IGLA

[TEHGROUND]

Yeah the chances of an unguided rocket hitting a helicopter is like 10%

[Vietboy1st]

Have u ever shot an RPG ? it suck .. the rocket doesn't go straight. at distance it will loose the accuracy. unless it was an AT4.

[TATARSTAN59500]

@Vietboy1st haha no its rpg lol and old launcher

[magnusalexa]

probly very easy to take out a chinook with a russian made whatever which isnt able to be seen as being russian, dodgy russian officials stil upset about the US supplying stinger nissiles to taliban for fighting russian aircraft

[BEARARMZ]

IF U WANNA SEE HOW THEY PULLED IT OFF WATCH THIS

[sod5dreamweaver]

how is it hard to take down a chinook with an RPG? I shot down an AC130 with an RPG in call of duty

[Edriskhan001]

@sod5dreamweaver Yeah me to

[JohnMarshton777]

@sod5dreamweaver really? you really had to say THAT?

[geniemist]

my question is what happened to the Rangers who were there?

[Afghani5tan]

@lee8264 oh you are from canada i thought american thats great last 4 years the afghan resistance consentrade their war also against canadian and australian and british troops but mostly under fire are the usa, the italian and french decoration of usa in afg bribed the taliban to not shoot at them i dont know if you saw it on media but i couldn stop laugh .yeah afghanistan is a funny country and there is no allince between afghanistan and usa

[Afghani5tan]

@lee8264 yeah in afghanistan the soldiers shooting at living humans not against cows they killed alot of civilians raping womans and children ,in gardez a province of afghanistan stormed a american force a wedding party killed the province governor raped the woman and children and later they shoot and stabbet them and told the army they was raped and stabed by the taliban it was in the media actually they doing this for years and thats why the resistance is so heavy against us forces in afg

[Afghani5tan]

@lee8264 i realy have no idea ,but under the taliban regime was heroine banned when america invaded afghanistan it became his comeback from 2% to 80% but you cant pay with heroin so much equipment someone has bringing you this stuff some has to teach you how to use it a rpg is not easy to handle last time i saw a video where they was using a javling rocketluncher against a us convoy on youtube but there are alot of criminal bandits in afghanistan selling heroin to russia iran turkey

[Afghani5tan]

@lee8264 if the usa sold weapons to someone than maybe to pakistan and this black pakistani punjabis gave it to some pashtun rebells in afghanistan remember the nato burned vihicles 2 years ago in peshawar and the captured amunition this realy could be because the taliban has no money and no other country gives them weapons so they have to capture it from the afghan police army or from the american soldiers their bases but this could realy be that pakistan gave weapons to some factions

[Afghani5tan]

the afghans has alot of anti tank misiles they working like stingers :) but a rpg is also very powerfull and the afghans destroyed more humves with a rpg than helicopters with a stinger in the soviet and american war

[ScamallDorcha]

@Afghani5tan shooting a moving helicopter with an unguided rpg is extremely hard, maybe with an m136at4 but even then it would be extremely hard, however if the heli was landing or taking off and it is within 100 meters it might be possible.

[Afghani5tan]

@ScamallDorcha thats true and it lost his effect when its shot from a far distance but the taliban captured in the last years many american bases they fighting with american weapons against american soldiers in afghanistan there are groups that wearing us american dresses that they captured in american bases like this group /watch?v=07vxgfgS9Wk

[Afghani5tan]

@ScamallDorcha the weapons of the americans are the best on the planet and the taliban has tonnes of ammunition and weapons captured from the americans in afghanistan on some videos you can see that taliban or i say afghan resistance fighting with american humves mg guns sniper granatelunchers m14 etc against us soldiers in afghanistan

[TheBlayzinAsian420]

Apparently this idiot forgot about the Battle of Takur Ghar in which another Chinook was shot down.

[halfzombiehalfrobot]

@TheBlayzinAsian420 you're wrong. put the bong down, watch again.

[TheBlayzinAsian420]

@halfzombiehalfrobot Which part of my comment couldn't u comprehend? Tell u what, next time ill type slower so its more easier for you to understand.

[d3m0ng0dx]

Where better of quitting or else this is a 100 year war

[Samyaza1]

Retard host and retard guest. Great match up.

[Samyaza1]

Black Hawk Down = RPG shot. It happens at landing, take off, and hovering.

The Chinook was shot on take off = low to the ground. This retard makes it sound like the plane was at 10k feet.

[sjvietboy408]

@Samyaza1, that is possible, if something sounds plausible it doesn't mean it happened that way. Witnesses (Afghan locals) said the chinook landed for a short period of time to pick up someone and just before it took off it just exploded and dropped to the ground.

[Atrofia2]

why there where 30 troops in a 22 person helicopter

[SayNoToTheism]

@Atrofia2 I bet they were standing around on the ground and got hit by a guided US cruise missile.

[Atrofia2]

@SayNoToTheism probably a drone took them down

[archerce]

@Atrofia2 how would they get a drone then smart arse?

[Atrofia2]

@archerce hey, the american military have drone planes and yes I am saying that the American military took down their own chopper, it is called a inside job.

[halcyon0830]

Why are we in Afghanistan?

$ TRILLIONS $ in gold, lithium, cobalt, silver, etc. It will be the most important mining center in the world. Afghanistan now has a mining law, written with the help of the World Bank. So much for the phony war on terror. Yahoo news, June 14, 2010.

Why are the Russians & Chinese so quiet on the USA in Afghanistan? They get their share of the contracts. Keep dying for the criminal billionaires, you dumb stupid animals. You are there to protect their interests.

[halcyon0830]

When Afghanistan was a socialist country, in 1980, all had free education & healthcare. Women were doctors, lawyers & mayors. The CIA decided to turn Afghanistan into an opium/drug growing nation. So USA trained Al-Qaeda & Taliban to attack the socialist government. Soviets came to help, but were no match for CIA & Taliban. USA ruined democratic countries like Afghanistan & Iran, and created terrorism

So sad these fucking idiot's are allowed to comment..

[amazingblur]

Its like the war on crime, an impossible war to win. It's a war on an idea, even wrong ideas can't be destroyed, especially when you train people to hate us and have these ideas through torture prisons and bombing their towns in order to maybe hit a target or two.

[Garlannd]

Bullshit. In nam they called them Shit nooks for a reason.

[616MGT]

I don't think this war is worth a single American life!!!!!! Bring them home :(

[mirandansa]

It's very easy for an insider to plant a bomb on the chopper.

[ScoobySnax4urMind]

The only reason the Mujaheddin were even able to take down Soviet helicopters is because the U.S. provided them with stinger missile ordinance.

[DaLynxfighta]

they did it :D

[MrDarkTides]

Governments are all liars and murderers. These men were offed

[AdolphBernankee]

peirce you still have a show? you hacking peice of $ hit why not goto london I think some parliment people have some questions to ask you dirt bag ........ Jesse ventura said it best with your hit peice interview ..... jesse said I now no why they hired you ....... about the chinook what ever took it down its a very easy thing to take out, if it looses one roater it will go into a spinning uncontrolled dive, so much so the g forces pin you inside, I road in one in Iraq a couple times.

[zentonil]

What the hell is with their computer simulation of a jihadi shooting down a shinook??

This isn't a video game, it's real life!!

[Zooni2]

I believe the Taliban took over a US outpost and got all the weapons. Were some of the weapons anti aircraft.

[scottthrees]

No Seals on the chopper were involved in the OBL raid because NO Seals were involved at ALL! Staged event and the Seals were being patriots and wanted people to know the truth.

[halcyon0830]

American & NATO Troops Expose that the Osama Killing was ALL Fake and Staged and that the US Government has MURDERED Seal Team 6, the Taliban DID NOT shoot down the Helicopter, it was Secret Agents for the USA that did it..

[seanlaca]

It's better just to forget that governments lie and accept the official version. When you critically think, this equates to conspiracy theory.

[Kesava1975]

hey london protestors!! burn down piers house!!

[PulaskiSkater71]

stinger?

[Churchx77]

@PulaskiSkater71 Seems unlikely, doube they still have those lying around in Afghanistan but that was my first thought when they said the chinook was taken down by what appeared to have been an RPG.

[fonkymaster]

Could have been a heat seeker or it was flying low.

You know, heat seekers, like you guys said they didn't have.

[sabrom]

The chinook copter was brought down by it's own kind and people ,no rpg or missle as such,it was a sacraficial offering and those who have been watching the government? no what has happened propaganda and lies......

[Zlibservacratican]

I wonder if there are members of the military that see this and think the same thing I think.

[Twostones00]

This is crap. Some concentrated fire on the rear engine then take out the windshield so the pilot can't see and she is down. This can be done with rifle fire.

[snipzor]

"Very Hard" doesn't mean "Impossible", copters get shot down sometimes, why? Because the probability of it still getting hit exists, doesn't matter how low it is, it's still a fucking possibility. You can have the possibility be less than that of an earthquake and tsunami hitting consecutively, but even that was possible and happened.

[traingp7]

@snipzor The same thing happened to the battleship Bismarck. It was hit by a single torpedo from a obsolete fighter plane in the only location she was vulnerble in her rudder locking it so it could only go in a circle which was the ships death knell not being able to escape. The torpedo hit really was a "LUCKY ONE IN A 100 HIT." Sometimes luck does play into things. I'm not saying that's what happened in this situation but it's possible.

[snipzor]

@traingp7 Same with the Death Star. Yup, I just did that. :P

[capucchan8]

come on the gov never lies let's believe in it blindly

[nayanmalig]

I think USSR & china are slowly turning the cooker button on USA. maybe they had enough of NATO bases surrounding them. timing with the stock market crash is odd too.

[HumbleObserver]

I doubt it was an RPG tbh more like a recoiless Anti-tank gun, not the first time they have hit a chinook with one either.

[chocomalk]

"Prevent Al Qaeda from planning more atrocities".

Why do these people think less than 200 people need an entire country to plan an attack?

[chocomalk]

"We have allowed a completely corrupt government to take over Kabul..."

FUCK YEAH! 10 years in Afghanistan fighting corruption and oopsie we instal more corruption, who would have thought?

[maxtor8448]

I think this guest made an amazing movie, Restrepo. It gave an inside look and didn't really give input on politics which is a nice relief from. If anyone hasn't seen it yet I highly recommend it. It is on Netflix.

[maahal]

Bring our troops home NOW!!

[Mahoivlich]

The shot would have been needed to be point blank. The shot in the animation is a win the lottery shot. Those old rpgs arc and spin.

[HuxleyWasRight]

this guy sounds like a state stenographer, anyone who isn't saying "this war is crazy, it's time to call it a day".

He's just spouting boilerplate analysis, I wouldn't read his book if you paid me.

[jesse2076]

CIA biggest drug dealers in the world with US army openly guarding Poppy fields

[RemoveYourChains]

People pushing "inside job" theories here have no evidence.

IF there is something fishy in the official explanation, it is the insistence that an RPG was used, as the guest indicates.

The U.S is loath to admit that the Taliban may be beginning to have access to heat seekers, as that will mark a lethal page-turn for the U.S occupation and thus erode support for the war.

[lSeKToRl]

Mr. Phonehacking's show is a piece of shit

[tojoconfused]

How can there be any doubt that RPG's are deadly to large flying aluminium boxs... besides which, I thought it was certain there were (Iranian?) MANPADs successfully being used by the Taliban, literally years ago, and it would be a much of a muchness; RPG or MANPAD. My money's on either too much 'Geronimooo!' and/or adaptive Taliban tactics, or pure luck.

[valhala56]

Afghanistan the Graveyard of Empires. Didn't some General tell baby Bush that this would turn out badly?

[SeppLainer]

@valhala56

Perhaps, but who's telling Baby Barry Soetoro Hussein Obama?

[chronDiggity]

@SeppLainer

That's President Obama to you

[SeppLainer]

@chronDiggity

There is absolutely no requirement in a free society to call anyone by any title, his majesty Hussein can kiss my ass.

[chronDiggity]

@SeppLainer

hmmm, no, it's President Obama.

[sigmapsicharlie]

@chronDiggity Actually Obama's name was changed to Barry Soetoro when he lived in Indonesia. he changed it to Barack Obama when he came back to the US. So technically tyou can call him either.

[chronDiggity]

@sigmapsicharlie

actually everyone and their cousin knows this, but people still call him Barry Soetoro because they think there's a sinister story or motive behind the name change. God forbid a child would rather be called Barry than Barack, right?

It makes no sense to call him Soetoro, because that's no longer his last name. It USED to be, for a brief period in his young life, but now it isn't. Why call him it? Technically, it's not his name, so technically, you're a moron.

[sigmapsicharlie]

@sigmapsicharlie hey, I can call him what i want. Your a sheeple, just trying suppress free speech. I bet you believe everything you hear on TV too, huh.

[sigmapsicharlie]

@valhala56 Well someone needs to tell Emperor Obama to GTFO.

[BroBroDude]

@valhala56 it's not turning out badly for those that made the decision. everything is going according to plan. it's the rest of us it's bad for

[Tressco]

@valhala56

That’s the plan. Deconstruct the last superpower on the planet to bring in the NWO...still all is happening precisely according to The Protocols...Michel Chossudovsky’s “Globalization of Poverty & The New World Order” is another perfect handbook, describing the financial terrorists’ takeover...

[doire7]

Restrepo was a great documentary. I highly recommend it.

[dave19941000]

[usergently]

Fishy at best.

[GTR66960]

It makes a lot of sense. I mean, can such a high tech, agile, tough machine be shot down by an unguided RPG? If that really happened the guy who fired the RPG should be on Top Shot or something.

[labartic]

@GTR66960 its not so much what you hit something with but where you hit it. i dont think it even happened...

[FixedNewsChannel]

@GTR66960 - Do you know what an RPG is? It isn't a firecracker, son.

[GTR66960]

@FixedNewsChannel Hey, I subscribe to you! And it's a rocket propelled grenade. The whole top shot thing didn't make any sense I konw.
