Απίστευτο 15λεπτο βίντεο με όρκα που αρπάζει τον εκπαιδευτή της

Απίστευτο 15λεπτο βίντεο με όρκα που αρπάζει τον εκπαιδευτή της Τον κρατά στα δόντια της για δεκαπέντε ολόκληρα λεπτά

Στη δημοσιότητα δόθηκε ένα σοκαριστικό βίντεο με μία όρκα να πιάνει τον εκπαιδευτή της από το πόδι, να τον βυθίζει κάτω από το νερό με διαλείμματα και να τον κρατά στα δόντια της για δεκαπέντε ολόκληρα λεπτά. Το περιστατικό είχε γίνει το 2006 και δόθηκε στη δημοσιότητα στο πλαίσιο της δικαστικής μάχης κατά του ενυδρείου SeaWorld στο Σαν Ντιέγκο μεταξύ άλλων για έκθεση των εκπαιδευτών σε κίνδυνο. Η «επίθεση» της φάλαινας Kasatka στον εκπαιδευτή Ken Peters καταγράφεται στο 15λεπτο βίντεο, το οποίο ο δικαστής χαρακτήρισε ανατριχιαστικό. Στο βίντεο φαίνεται η Kasatka να αρπάζει το πόδι του Peters και να τον βυθίζει για μεγάλα χρονικά διαστήματα κάτω από το νερό. Κάποια στιγμή ο εκπαιδευτής, που παραμένει εντυπωσιακά ήρεμος, καταφέρνει να απελευθερώσει το πόδι του και τελικά γλιτώνει περνώντας το προστατευτικό δίχτυ. Επρόκειτο για την τρίτη επίθεση της Kasatka. Σύμφωνα με τον συγγραφέα του βιβλίου «Death at SeaWorld» David Kirby, η φάλαινα έκανε τις καλά υπολογισμένες κινήσεις ακολουθώντας το ένστικτο του θηρευτή. Τονίζει μάλιστα πως η Kasatka κρατούσε με προσοχή τον Peters στο κέντρο της πισίνας, μακριά από τους άλλους εκπαιδευτές που επιχειρούσαν να τον βοηθήσουν. Καταλογίζεται στο SeaWorld πως ήθελε να υποβαθμίσει το περιστατικό. «Αυτά συμβαίνουν, είναι φάλαινες δολοφόνοι, επέλεξε να εκφράσει τα συναισθήματά της με έναν άτυχο τρόπο», είχε δηλώσει ο επικεφαλής των εκπαιδευτών. Ο συγγραφέας του «Death at SeaWorld» αναφέρει πως ενδεχομένως η Kasatka να είχε τη συμπεριφορά αυτή επειδή άκουγε τις «κραυγές» του 2χρονου μικρού της από μία άλλη πισίνα. Ο Peters τη γλίτωσε μόνο με ένα σπασμένο πόδι και ορκίστηκε να μην ξανακολυμπήσει με την Kasatka ποτέ. Ο David Kirby σημειώνει στο βιβλίο του πως η θνησιμότητα των φαλαινών σε αιχμαλωσία είναι 2,5 φορές μεγαλύτερη σε σχέση με αυτές που ζουν στον βορειοδυτικό Ειρηνικό. Την ώρα που δεν έχει καταγραφεί επιθετική συμπεριφορά όρκας σε βάρος ανθρώπου στον ωκεανό, στα ενυδρεία δεν είναι κάτι ασύνηθες. Με δώδεκα εκατομμύρια επισκέπτες το χρόνο στις τρεις εγκαταστάσεις του, το SeaWorld είχε συγκλονιστεί από την επίθεση της φάλαινας Tilikum στην εκπαιδεύτρια Dawn Brancheu το 2010. Η φάλαινα την άρπαξε από την αλογοουρά, του έσκισε το σκαλπ και τον ακρωτηρίασε. Μετά τους νέους κανονισμούς που απαγορεύουν το κολύμπι των εκπαιδευτών με τις όρκες το SeaWorld έχει καταρτίσει μία διαδικασία ασφαλείας σε περίπτωση που κάποιος πέσει στο νερό.

Deadly car bomb strikes Baghdad

Mon, Jul 23 2012

BAGHDAD | Tue Jul 24, 2012 8:50am EDT

(Reuters) - Two bombs killed nine people in Iraq late on Monday, police and hospital sources said, taking to 116 the death toll in a string of coordinated bomb and gun attacks against mostly Shi'ite Muslim targets.

A car bomb exploded near a cafe in the Shi'ite Ameen district in southeastern Baghdad, killing six men and wounding 24 others as they sat smoking shisha water pipes and drinking tea.

Three other people died when a roadside bomb went off near their mini-bus about 20 km (12 miles) west of Baquba, a city northeast of Baghdad. Seven others were wounded in the blast, police said.

The attacks took to at least 299 the number of people wounded in the bloodiest day of violence to hit Iraq this year.

The bloodshed, which coincided with an intensifying of the conflict in neighboring Syria, highlighted deficiencies in the Iraqi security forces, which failed to prevent insurgents from striking in multiple locations across the country.

No group has claimed responsibility for the wave of assaults but a senior Iraqi security official accused the local wing of al Qaeda, made up of Sunni Muslim militants hostile to the Shi'ite-led government, which is friendly with Iran.

Sectarian slaughter peaked in 2006-2007, but deadly attacks have persisted while political tensions among Iraq's main Shi'ite, Sunni and Kurdish factions have increased since U.S. troops completed their withdrawal in December.

Behind-the-Scenes Video of Deadly Taliban Attack Emerges

By MUHAMMAD LILA (@muhammadlila) and ALEEM AGHA
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan
July 23, 2012

The Taliban has released a new video that offers a chilling play-by-play account of a deadly, coordinated attack on large U.S. base that climaxed with an explosion so strong the shockwaves could be felt for miles away.

The hour-long video, released by the group's propaganda wing, shows the entire attack, which took place last month, from its initial planning stages to the dramatic moment when a suicide bomber detonates a ten-ton bomb outside the gates of Camp Salerno, the third largest U.S. base in the country. The blast is captured from three cameras, each at different angles, while militants provide commentary in the background.

In addition to offering rare insight into the group's planning for a large mission, the video also shows the Taliban's increasingly sophisticated video production capabilities. The interviews are shot in a style that look more like something seen on an American reality TV show than the deserts of Afghanistan and the jihadi songs that play in the background feature digitally-altered vocals. 

The Taliban claim twenty coalition troops were killed in the attack -- numbers that NATO denies. While the footage does not show any specific casualties, it does show major damage to the base, including the crumpled roofs of nearby buildings, the sheer force of the explosion ripping them up from their bearings. The main target of the bomb, the dining hall, was completely flattened.

Initially, NATO did not report any casualties, but later admitted two American troops were killed and three dozen suffered serious wounds, while more than 100 others were treated for minor injuries. 

Earlier in the video, many of the militants can be seen wearing U.S. army fatigues as they train in the mountains with rocket propelled grenades, mortars, and AK-47's. In a show of strength, the group's commander practices firing from two AK-47s simultaneously, one in each hand. Later, he is seen briefing the militants on the mission. The briefing includes aerial photographs, plus a miniature mockup indicating the locations of the major targets inside the base.

THE REVELATIONS OF A MAN OF THE CIA

The publication of Glenn Carle's account of the CIA's investigation methods has been fraught with controversy. This report discusses the former agent's shocking claims with him and asks why he is speaking out.

"I was there. What we did counts as torture". Former CIA agent, Glenn Carle, argues that after 9/11 the face of US international relations changed forever. Instructed that "the absence of an answer is proof of guilt", Carle claims he was given carte blanche with suspected Al Qaeda detainees, and actively encouraged to "do whatever it takes" to get information. Reviled by colleagues and politicians for speaking out, he remains adamant that "someone has to tell the truth about what we have done".

A small sightseeing boat narrowly escaped a large wave created by a piece of crumbling iceberg in the Arctic.

The boat carrying a tourist was approaching a gigantic iceberg off the coast of western Greenland on Thursday when the wave was created.

A video taken by a crew member shows the iceberg creaking and cracking and a massive wave closing in on the boat.

The boat barely stayed ahead of the wave as its captain steered it at full speed.

No one was injured in the incident. But the crew member says the day almost became his last day.

Greenland has seen many glaciers melt and crumble in recent years. Some experts say climate change is to blame.
