A Very Bad Sign
2 die in downing of U.S. copter in Iraq
BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- A U.S. AH-64 Apache attack helicopter went down north of Baghdad on Monday, killing two crew members aboard, the U.S. military said. It was the third time in 10 days that a U.S. helicopter has gone down in Iraq.
I'm not statistician, but three in ten days has to be a significant number. If they have learned how to take down our helicopters, it is very bad news.
I wonder what's going on - do the bad guys have some new weapons, or are our guys getting a bit tired and careless, or are they following some different procedures? I guess I'm on the wrong blog for this question.
