7. A veteran on Alex Jones described a "burnex"
A burnex is a mission where the unit deploys to take down the al qaeda or the taliban, and then when they get there there aren't any. But they brought a huge amount of ammo and "burn it off" while file videos are made of the "action." Later the video is shown on CNN with some bullshit story.

Reminded me of a Navy pilot who told me of his "dumpex" missions in Vietnam and Cambodia. He'd fly to coordinates and dump his 10,000 lb load of 500 lb bombs 2x a day, day after day, on tractless jungles.
