'The Death Trap' Dangerous Jet #CombatTraining Dramatically Increases Over #TohonoOodham Nation

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Oct. 17, 2024

SELLS, Arizona -- "The #USMilitary has dramatically increased its dangerous jet combat fighting over the heart of the Tohono O'odham Nation, with combat jets, a private #corporation and a plane labeled as "the death trap," due to safety violations.

"Tohono O'odham who live below say the #SonicBlasts are breaking the plaster in their traditional homes. Dangerous flares endanger all life below, including the #EndangeredSpecies of #SonoranPronghorn and more. With the risk of deadly crashes, Tohono O'odham are at risk below, including those in the community of #Pisinemo this week.

"The U.S. Air Force now plans to expand its dangerous use of the #airspace over Tohono O'odham, #Apache and #Yaqui communities in #Arizona. #SacredPlaces including #BaboquivariPeak on the Tohono O'odham Nation are among those at risk.

"The enormous #Goldwater#ange -- 1.9 million acres in the #SonoranDesert west of the Tohono O'odham Nation -- was set aside for U.S. military training, yet the military is consistently using Tohono O'odham Nation airspace.
The #USAirForce wants to authorize more #supersonic blasts training at lower altitudes. The dangerous expansion includes airspace over #NativeAmericanNations, and scenic regions of Arizona and western #NewMexico."
