Video: U.S. Apache Attack Helicopter Follows Behind ISIS Convoy … Doesn’t Fire a Single Shot

George Washington's picture




 

This video from LiveLeak purports to be an Apache attack helicopter following a huge ISIS convoy of white pickup trucks crossing from Iraq to Syria ... and - instead of attacking - more or less "escorting" it across the border:

What do you think?

You gotta hand it to the Russkies! They are whacking these guys even with the US Air Force flying CAP for ISIS.

The evil of the USSA has overflowed. It has run down the streets and filled the sewers. I think the stench reaches into Heaven itself. I believe God has already Judged this place. The agent of our Destruction will be Hitlery Klingon.

most Americans are dog-shit stoopid and arrogantly apathetic - i hate those fuckheads as much as anyone else - but that doesn't make them evil - let's say we are "passive enablers", not "agents"

I think the American sheeple are exceptionally stupid. The Toyotas were supplied by US State Department. http://beforeitsnews.com/alternative/2015/10/isis-toyota-trucks-were-sup... The helicopter supplied by the US Defense Department.
The lies supplied by the MSM.
The stupidity supplied by the exceptionals.

Yep.  That's what I saw.  That was what the US did with all those billions in fines they hit Toyota with from the unintended acceleration issue. (An investigation never found any wrongdoing by Toyota).   So Toyota was really forced to give those trucks to ISIS if you think about it.

is it any wonder Toyota is numero uno in sales in the world. they should use that in a commercial. the TRD Off Road Killing Machine. Battle tested, with optional bullet proof glass, cannon mounts with camel trim, extended cab which includes 5 ample sized head baskets, plastic moohamid bobble head for camel hair dashboard, roll out prayer carpet for the bed, and last, but not least, GPS, so they know which direction mekka is @ all times. cia prep & destination charges extra. O% down + O% financing for as long as you can stay alive. hurry, this offer could be cancelled at any time. ISIS-IS-US.........

That looked like a friggin Toyota commercial.

"Look how well our Hi-Lux trucks carry those heavy machine gun mounts. Come on down to Abdul's Toyota Wonderland. Bring the kids, get a free grenade launcher!!"

"Look at the long bed version. Carry your entire harem of virgins in the back!!"

"We take camel trade-ins. Top dinar paid for your hold hag !"

Looks smaller than a Hind. Real pixelated, but the weapon mounts look low horizontal mount, not high and drooping down.

sure, one always hover above enemies armed with heavy machine guns when out of ammos, the least one can do is being sportsmanlike and allow the enemy to take a shot at you when you can't shoot back.

Maybe ISIS picked 'emselves up a few helicopters with all the money they are making selling oil and were an escort.

The important question to ask, regarding the aforementioned black fluid is, who's buying it.

If sanctions can be imposed on Iran, surely they should be imposed on ISIS.

Unless everything is bullshit.

Now there's a thought.

Why would an attack be justified? The answer is: it wouldn't. 

American rednecks are fantastically enthusiastic about the right to bear arms — except if you're a brown person in Afghanistan. Then they will send Marines door-to-door to disarm them.

"JSTARS provides a picture of the ground situation equivalent to that of the air situation provided by AWACS. JSTARS is capable of determining the direction, speed and patterns of military activity of ground vehicles and helicopters."

Used in1991 now with 24 years worth of improvement. Anyone believe the U.S. doesn't know the oil level on each of those trucks?

ISIS doesn't have choppers; we and the Russians do. Russians would massacre those guys in the trucks.

 

Conclusios: U.S. chopper. U.S. supports ISIS 100%.

It takes 4 hours to get authorization to fire. The Helecopter only has about 4 hours of flight time. Sooooo by the time you find a target your out of time to get permission to fire prior to bingo fuel and you go home. Another successful mission.

Because ISIS was invented by America/Israel to overthrow the Syrian government. We mount a feeble or non-existent attack on them to show we are not on their side. We airdrop LOTS of armaments, ammo and supplies to the "Moderate rebels" who don't exist. Naturally, they are taken by ISIS. The whole thing is a war crime. America is a rogue nation.

I agree on every point, even on America being a rogue nation, but rogue from it's roots, not the rest of the world!

Though much of their power is concentrated in NYC and DC, The fools pushing this wagon are an international cabal from nations across the world!

They are a minority who's deeds are secretive, who depend anonymity, who leverage lies and deception to control the masses.  Our Government and our Press have been taken hostage by a powerful few and the People are asleep under the spell of their propaganda.

America has a Rogue Government under the spell of Globalist Bankers and when revolution comes I would not want to live in DC or NYC!

Now if that was a non-govt convoy on it's way to provide humanitarian aid it'd surely be blown up.

So what? The USA has many ways of " delivering" stuff to ISIS. All they do is give the equipment to Iraqi security forces who in turn play surrender and donate 2300 Humvees to ISIS.

You have to be on narcotic to do this stuff, and you have to be on narcotic to just sit back a watch this shit unfold!

The footage is very blurry but it looks more like a Russian-built Hind helicopter than a US-built Apache.

I think I agree grish, but remember we fly lots of Russian aircraft, starting with the Mi-17 series which is what the Hind is based on.

though not clear who is providing air support, it's proof, someone is giving them air support.

The list of possibilities is a very short list.

Obviously, there's no US war against ISIS if they're crossing the border into Syria down a paved road with air support in a huge convoy.

You can't tell me our Satellites weren't watching the whole thing.

I agree.  The outline is 100% Hind.

Of course, if it is an Apache that just means that Obama was busy with Reggie Love in closet and couldn't be reached for his personal authorization to fire.

Definitely not an MI-24, what's missing is the 2 bubble-shaped "bulges" between the upper part of the cockpit and the chopper body. Try freezing the image at 2:57-2:59 in, you might notice the straight-line design from the chopper nose and all the way up to the rotor. That's noting else but an AH-64...
