US Marines in Garmser, Helmand, Operation Khanjar (Raw Video)

Raw video footage of US marines operating in the south of Helmand Province, Afghanistan, in operation Operation Khanjar (Sword Strike).

The US sent 4,000 marines into Afghanistan's Helmand province at the beginning of July 2009 in its biggest operation for five years in an attempt to permanently remove the Taliban from the poppy-filled river valley.

The marines used helicopters, armoured vehicles and on foot.

SCOUNDREL . LOL

@asianqt31 Videos, as in other videos. Video's, as in something that belongs to the video. You should check your grammar before you parade your pride around. As Oscar Wilde once said, "patriotism is the virtue of the vicious". I can see what he meant by it.

@TheCentralService...exactly what am I lying about? Your comment to me makes no sense. I never mentioned 911 so I think you should reread my comment,you got me confused with somebody else. However I will ALWAYS support my husband. I could say some negative things about you but frankly you don't rate anymore of my attention than what you got just now so with that said..Go to hell!! Semper Fi!!

[TheCentralServices]

@asianqt31 Yer such an outrageous, brazen liar. The plans to invade Afghanistan were made long before 911 and had nothing to do with 911. Its all just about the Trans Afghan Pipeline. The army knew it, Lt.Col. Bowman knew it ( watch?v=zrRKqI1NAgE ), you knew it and the rest of the world knew it as well. Do you think we are stupid? Every single US soldier who didn't do his duty to refuse orders to go to Afghanistan is a war criminal!!!

@wicNKWD37 We should pull out try to make peace stop supplying middle-east countrys! Stop letting thosuands crossing our borders use our armys,navy,air force to focus on terroism in our countrys if its that much of a threat and our goverments should say sorry to all countrys who they invaded and we let the east get on with there lives and there beleifs and maybe it will cut terroism right down BUT at the end of the day there is always going to be terroists attacks there always has!

[martynrobin121]

@wicNKWD37 America started the war by supplying Israel,other countrys and helping them with there wars in the middle-east USA was also very happy to supply and support the taleban when they were fighting the russians we have interfered in the middleeast for too long and british forces have been there for ages 2 we also had been planning the invasion of the middleeast since 1998 but didnt have public support YES al-qaedas attack at 9/11 gave america and nato the go ahead for the war!
