What are these parents demanding? That Obama get as many American soldiers needlessly killed as Bush did?
Will that make them happy?
One would think that if this smear was correct then Obama having a higher death toll in Afghanistan would make them happy. Or that Obama killed at least 4 Americans that he directly targeted.
2011 Chinook shootdown in Afghanistan - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
On 6 August 2011, a U.S.
Boeing CH-47 Chinook military helicopter, call sign Extortion 17, was shot down while transporting a
quick reaction force attempting to reinforce an engaged unit of
Army Rangers in
Wardak province, west of
Kabul, Afghanistan.
[6][7] The resulting crash killed all 38 people on board—25 American special operations personnel, five United States Army National Guard and Army Reserve crewmen, seven
Afghan commandos, and one Afghan interpreter—as well as a U.S. military working dog.
[8][9][10][11] It is considered the worst loss of U.S. Military life in a single incident in the Afghanistan campaign, surpassing
Operation Red Wings in 2005 (Note: during Operation Red Wings, on 28 June 2005, a Chinook helicopter carrying a U.S. Navy SEAL team was shot down by a RPG round as it attempted to extract U.S. troops on the ground).
