Recent air combat training in Chile and the United States showed that Chile's modernized F-5 Tiger IIIs, equipped with the latest systems and weapons including the Elta EL/M-2032 radar, helmet-mounted sight, and Rafael Python 4 missiles, could win dogfights against superior fighters.

PETA Fighting Mad Over Halfback's Dogfighting Comments
Raiders Owner Asked to Investigate Possibility of Criminal Activity
For Immediate Release:
February 1, 2001
Contact: Sean Gifford - Dogfighting is illegal in all 50 states and a felony in 44, but that didn't stop Oakland Raiders halfback Tyrone Wheatley from singing the praises of this cruel bloodsport in the January 15 issue of Sports Illustrated Wheatley says he formerly raised pitbulls-dogs often sold for fighting-a breed he promotes as "instinctive" and "motivational." "In the world of pitbull fighting," Wheatley told reporter Michael Silver, "one pitbull doesn't give a s- if the other pit bull is a two-time winner. All he knows is, we're going to fight, and I'm going to kick your ass if it takes all day." Despite Wheatley's bravado, he didn't make it to the Superbowl, but he did land in the doghouse with people who are now howling mad over his callous comments. PETA has written to Raiders owner, Al Davis, calling on him to question Wheatley and to report him to authorities if the team member has been involved in dogfighting. "Dogfighting is grotesquely cruel and usually mixed up with other criminal activity, such as drug trafficking, illegal gambling, and weapons violations," says PETA cruelty caseworker Daphna Nachminovitch. "With the slew of violent crimes recently associated with pro ball, it seems the last thing the NFL needs is to have its players cheering felonious fights involving dogs."

Even Spectators may be Arrested, Fined and/or Jailed. Many Americans admire and cherish dogs, as loyal, trusting and loving members of their own families. Some people, however, routinely abuse "man's best friend" for the illegal and barbaric purpose of dogfighting. Sadly, in Louisiana, dogfighting activities are not uncommon. The fights may even take place out in the open, in tough, inner-city neighborhoods. Sometimes, the events are conducted in secret, along the outskirts of small rural towns. For the tormented dogs, however, the outcome is always the same. To satisfy the greed and bloodlust of their owners and other spectators at these events, the unfortunate animals are forced to endure excruciating pain and suffering, in bloody fights to the death. Not only are these animals savagely wounded and/or killed during fights, they are almost always abused outside of the ring. The animals are subjected to cruel training practices, designed to make them vicious, and they are often deprived of the most basic necessities, like adequate food, water, shelter and vet care.

Local News Expert: Region is a hotbed of dogfighting Saturday, November 02, 2002 By Jonathan D. Silver, Post-Gazette Staff Writer Over the years, dogfighting has attracted a growing subculture of enthusiasts, ranging from street toughs eager to satisfy base desires for violence to more sophisticated purists who believe that raising pit bulls to kill fulfills the breed's destiny. Both kinds can be found in the greater Pittsburgh area, a hotbed of dogfighting, according to one of the region's foremost investigators of animal cruelty. Kathy Hecker, humane officer for Animal Friends in the Strip District, said the announcement yesterday that state police had infiltrated and broken up a major dogfighting ring in southwestern Pennsylvania only scratches the surface of the problem. "This is absolutely the tip of the iceberg. When I first started about 10 years ago, we saw some signs that there was some dogfighting going on. In recent years, it has mushroomed from anything to a wannabe cottage industry business to international world class," Hecker said. "Pittsburgh is really one of the hubs."

At a home in Cocoa, police say they found steroids, papers documenting illegal dogfights and a treadmill the dogs allegedly were forced to use for endurance training. Police initially raided the home looking for drugs after undercover agents purchased cocaine there. They found the dogs, and what they call "evidence of dogfighting." The homeowner, James Jordan, has been charged with trafficking cocaine and baiting or fighting animals. Both are felony crimes. A judge has ordered Jordan held without bail. Jordan's daughter, Tasha, says the dogs are not fighting dogs. She said the family breeds and sells dogs, but doesn't fight them. Experts at the Brevard County Animal Shelter say the dogs seem well taken care of, and do not appear very aggressive.

Product Description: Superior Airpower The three hour-long programs on Superior Airpower A textbook study of how airpower is deployed on a modern battlefield is the theme of the third program, which details the American air deployment during the Gulf War. Interviews with veterans, including General Chuck Horner, who commanded American air operations in the Gulf, as well as a considerable amount of action footage shot from cockpit cameras, provide a look at the planning and execution of what is considered the most effective air attacks in history. These three programs offer a diverse but reasonably coherent look at how the modern American military can project its power virtually anywhere in the world. Robert J. McNamara

Fighting dogfighting
Posted Saturday, March 27, 2004 - 11:11 pm

discuss this issue in our forums The state's effort is aimed at ending the 'sport of thugs.' South Carolina Attorney General Henry McMaster is getting some help in his effort to combat what he calls "the sport of thugs, crooks and monsters." Several humane groups across the state have stepped in to raise money to help authorities combat dogfighting. South Carolina, like the other 49 states, makes dogfighting illegal. Our state has the unwanted distinction of ranking in the top five states for animal fighting. Greenville is one of three counties where McMaster's office is involved in prosecuting dogfighting cases. Dogfighting is a brutal event that's considered a sport by some people. The dogs forced to participate in the fights are left injured, and most of them eventually are killed. Those rescued from their cruel fate often must be euthanized because they are not adoptable. Smaller, more vulnerable animals frequently are used to train the lethal fighters. And dogfighting, as McMaster said, appeals to those involved in illegal drugs and gambling. In a tight budget year, South Carolina has little money to devote to cracking down on those involved in dogfighting. Several humanitarian groups have already raised more than $44,000 to help fund a SLED agent and assistant attorney general dedicated to helping combat this blood sport. The groups want to raise at least $110,000 for the task force.
