A sick demented religion using low IQ inbreds for this type of action.
It cannot be repeated enough, keep them out, keep them out of the U.S.A.

The sentries may have been tipped off and in cahoots.

Are our troops still guarding the poppy field?
Gotta keep those narco-dollars moving.

There was a remote control helicopter with a video camera for sale at the local 7/11 convenience store. I'm sure it wasn't state of the art but it was only $50.

Drones have audio? I am not doubting the authenticity of this footage but there is audio. Plus,when the bomb goes off the sound of the explosion is instantaneous even though it would take almost a second to reach the drone. The sound of the explosion almost seems to start before the explosion takes place.

That why the ground forces remain there. Even Obama is in no hurry to pull them out. I wonder what FedGov’s cut is?

Followed the first youtube link which shows the short version, approach and detonation.

The tube poster has a longer version, about 30 mins which the title in English followed by Pustun? narrative.

It shows aerial footage of the whole neighborhood from different station points. Some of which is either infrared or editted to appear that way.

It opens with those scenes and then a bearded fellow along side of a Hummvee says his bit. Possibly the martyr to be?

At about 16 mins the aerial footage resumes, with the drone stationary showing the arrival of a vehicle in the lower left hand corner which appears and then stops for a few seconds and then starts to tear ass towards the target raising a big dust cloud rooster tail. This guy wanted to be seen.

Guy makes all of the 90 degree turns designed to slow down incoming traffic without slowing down, hightailing it, doesn’t appear to pause at the compound gate, fishtails through it, gets to the center and kaboom!!

So my take away is that the op was well scouted in detail... and the question comes down to how it escaped all the sigint, sat-intel, UAV intel we’ve all been lead to believe gave us and allies control of the battle space.

And it was all published on youtube!

Just dayum..
