I do not know where this mpeg originated, but it shows a scary level of competence in equipment & personnel.

Here's the email note on the forwarded mail I received.

This is awesome.
This is unbelievable.

Turn on your speakers and watch this Apache stop
Iraqis from placing a bomb along the roadside to kill American
troops.....the Iraqis can not hear nor see the apache because it is dark
and they are 2 miles away...they are using infrared.

You should always try to get as close to the original source material before commenting. Otherwise you get sandbagged by editing done by others. Here is a previous Free Republic Apache Video thread, read message number 30. Then you can see what the 'short' version of the video looks like compared to the entire 'long' ABC version of the video. You should note that depending on the ideological source, the short version is used to play up the 'harmless' farmers out for some late night tilling and smokes.

They were doing neither.

No. I haven't seen the whole video. If there is a longer clip that shows what they were up to, and explains why the tractor was running, fine.... I'll take your word for it. All I was saying is that the caption. "placing a bomb along the roadside," doesn't fit the clip.

From looking at that clip, the tractor's exhaust is hot. So is the casing around the rear axel. It has obviously been running. Nor can I see a road anywhere. All I see is some fellows messing around with a tractor. It does look like the guy near the tractor has some type of weapon.

And, again, it is not that unusual to run a tractor at night. Particularly one with no cab, no air-conditioning and in an area where temps are regularly over 100 degrees. With the fan blowing the heat off the engine, toward the rear, it's almost unbearable to operate one in the daytime.

It's usually a Boeing M230. 30mm armor piercing round.

Thanks for the link. And thanks for the advise about when I should or shouldn't post a comment.

Months ago? Let's see, in January I was in MN for
some crisp -10F days hunting pheasants with family.
I've been recovering from a sarcoid attack
since then.

I did try a search using google against
freerepublic for this, but didn't find
anything. Do you have any suggestions on
how I might have found the duplication?

Hello alnitak,

This may sound quite morbid, but could I get a copy of Daniel Pearl's execution video from you please?

Please kindly reply.

Thanks a lot.
