CHOPPERS DOWN: WHAT TO DO
FOR THE CAUSE, LOOK OUTSIDE IRAQ

By Ralph Peters, The New York Post

February 6, 2007 -- WITHIN two weeks, four choppers go down in Iraq. Shot down. By ene mies who previously couldn't hit the Goodyear Blimp
.
Attack helicopters and transport birds, military and contractor aircraft went down. Crews KIA (in one case, executed). Did the bad guys just get lucky?

No. They have new weapons. And new training. And a new strategy.

Why are the Palestinian people the world's only permanent refugees? Why do the hundreds of millions of dollars the UN and the European Union invest in the Palestinian people year after year result not in Palestinian prosperity but only in persistent Palestinian poverty?

Why have the Arab countries refused from the beginning to welcome Palestinian refugees into their countries? Who benefited from Yasser Arafat's refusal to accept prime minister Ehud Barak's offer of a Palestinian state?
