Video Fenomena Alam Yang Menajubkan Kambing Manjat Pohon Di Maroko

Assalamualaikum wr..wb

Sahabatku rahimakumullah
Terlampir sebuah video menarik tentang fenomena alam, dimana Kambing bisa juga memanjat pohon seperti di Maroko ini.

Ternyata bukan hanya manusia dan kera saja yang bisa memanjat pohon atau tebing, karena kambing pun bisa melakukannya. Anda tahu kan, kambing adalah binatang yang sulit untuk berjalan melintasi wilayah yang terjal dan tidak dapat melakukan pendakian yang ekstrim atau memanjat pohon. kambing biasanya akan terjatuh dan terjungkal bila harus menuruni jalan yang terlalu curam.

Namun, semua pandangan berubah ketika kita melihat kambing-kambing di atas pohon yang bisa ditemukan di Maroko. Kambing-kambing ini memanjat pohon untuk memakan buah dari pohon Argan, yang serupa dengan buah zaitun.

Para petani setempat biasa mengikuti kawanan-kawanan kambing ini saat mereka berpindah dari satu pohon ke pohon yang lainnya. Bukan karena ingin melihat keanehan ini, melainkan berusaha mendapatkan biji-biji kacang dari sisa buah yang biasanya tidak ikut dimakan oleh kambing-kambing itu.

Tiap kacang berisikan 1 hingga 3 biji yang bisa digunakan untuk membuat minyak Argan dan bahan kosmetik lainnya. Minyak ini telah digunakan orang selama ratusan tahun, tetapi perlahan pohon Argan makin sulit ditemui akibat kayunya yang sering dijarah dan juga akibat ulah kambing-kambing pemanjat yang merusaknya.

Secara ilmiah bisa saja ini dijelaskan oleh para ahli evolusi. Namun demikian kehendak Allah atas mahluknya agar bisa survive bisa saja terjadi.

Semoga bermanfaat ya

Floods in Pakistan killed 1000 people

As Monday dawned, Faisal Islam sat on a highway median in northwestern Pakistan — the only dry ground he could find — and railed against the government for its failure to provide aid nearly a week after the country's worst-ever floods first hit.

The government has deployed thousands of soldiers and civilian rescue workers to save people trapped by the floodwaters, distribute food and collect the bodies of the 1,100 dead. But the scale of the disaster is so vast that many residents say that it seems like officials are doing nothing.

"This is the only shirt I have. Everything else is buried," said Islam, surrounded by hundreds of people in makeshift shelters constructed from dirty sheets and plastic tarps.

Like many other residents of Pakistan's northwest Khyber-Pakhtoonkhwa province, the people camped out by the highway in Kamp Koroona village in Nowshera district — one of the areas hit hardest by the floods — waded through the water to their damaged houses to salvage their remaining possessions: usually just a few mud-covered plates and chairs.

The army has given them some cooking oil and sugar, but Islam complained that they needed much more.

"We need tents. Just look around," said Islam.

The disastrous flooding comes at a time when the weak and unpopular Pakistani government is already struggling to cope with a faltering economy and a brutal war against Taliban militants that has killed thousands of people in the past few years.

Pakistan's international partners have tried to bolster the government's response by offering millions of dollars in emergency aid.

The United Nations and the United States both announced Saturday that they would provide $10 million dollars in emergency assistance. The U.S. also provided rescue boats, water filtration units, prefabricated steel bridges and thousands of packaged meals that Pakistani soldiers tossed from helicopters as flood victims scrambled to catch them.

The high-profile U.S. gesture of support comes at a time when the Obama administration is trying to dampen anti-American sentiment in Pakistan and enlist the country's support to turn around the Afghan war.

"This is much needed stuff in the flood-affected areas and we need more of it from the international community," said Latifur Rehman, a disaster management official in Khyber-Pakhtoonkhwa.

The U.S. provided similar emergency assistance after Pakistan experienced a catastrophic earthquake in 2005 that killed nearly 80,000 people. The aid briefly increased support for the U.S. in a country where anti-American sentiment is pervasive.

But feelings have since shifted, and only 17 percent of Pakistanis now have a favorable view of the U.S., according to a recent poll by the Pew Research Center. Conducted in April 2010, the survey has a margin of error of three percentage points.

The U.S. could be hoping to get a similar popularity boost from the emergency flood assistance. But like the earthquake relief effort, the U.S. must compete with aid groups run by Islamist militants who also use assistance to increase their support.

Representatives from a charity allegedly linked to the Lashkar-e-Taiba militant group distributed food and offered medical services on Sunday to victims in the town of Charsada.

"We are reaching people at their doorsteps and in the streets, especially women and children who are stuck in their homes," said an activist with the Falah-e-Insaniat charity who would identify himself only by his first name, Saqib.

With suspected ties to al-Qaida, Lashkar-e-Taiba has been blamed for the 2008 attacks in Mumbai, India, that killed 166 people, and the U.S. military has said the group has stepped up activity in Afghanistan as well.

Pakistani militant groups often rail against government ineffectiveness as a way to build support, a message likely to resonate with many in the northwest who have criticized the official flood response.

The U.N. has estimated that 1 million people nationwide have been affected by the floods, and Pakistani officials have said that at least 500,000 have been displaced from their homes in the northwest.

The military has deployed 30,000 army troops who helped rescue more than 20,000 people, said Adnan Khan, a government disaster management official in Khyber-Pakhtoonkhwa.

However, rescuers have been unable to access certain areas and officials fear the death toll could increase beyond 1,100, he said.

More than 27,000 people in the province remained trapped Sunday and authorities said 43 military helicopters and 100 boats had been deployed to try to save them.

The impact of the floods could be especially difficult in the Swat Valley, where residents were still trying to recover from a major battle between Taliban militants and the army last spring that caused widespread destruction and drove nearly 2 million people from their homes.

The floods decimated many villages in Swat, destroying people's houses, shops, vehicles and crops. Residents have received no assistance from the government, and those who haven't been able to flee by boat are running out of food, said Fazal Maula, a resident of Imam Dheri village.

"We saw destruction during the three years of the Taliban and then during their fight with the army. But the destruction we have seen in the last three days is much more," said Maula.

Operation Desert Storm,

Twenty years ago, Saddam Hussein's forces invaded Kuwait, setting in motion US military action that is only now coming to a close, as American troops prepare to withdraw from Iraq.

The ill-advised move by Saddam triggered a US-led response that quickly pushed his army out of Kuwait, followed by years of military tension culminating in the American invasion of Iraq seven years ago.

The 1990-1991 Gulf war, dubbed "Operation Desert Storm," enjoyed wide international support, even among Arab countries, while the 2003 invasion stirred controversy and bitter opposition around the world.

As Saddam's regime was left intact, the first conflict helped plant the seeds of the second, with far-reaching consequences for the balance of power in the Middle East.

As the United States gradually withdraws from Iraq over the next year under a security pact, the US legacy in Iraq remains the subject of intense debate. Critics question if it was worth the terrible cost in human life and the damage done to Washington's image abroad.

"On balance the costs of our policy have been very high -- higher than need be, perhaps higher than the benefits will warrant," said Michael O'Hanlon, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution think-tank.

"But there are indeed huge benefits and huge potential benefits," O'Hanlon said.

With Saddam's regime toppled, the United States can look to Iraq as an ally, albeit still plagued by serious ethnic and sectarian divisions. Moreover, Washington no longer has to worry about a dangerous dictator in the region hostile to America and its allies.

But former president George W. Bush's vision of a new democratic Iraq transforming the Middle East looks unrealistic and naive, said Stephen Biddle of the Council on Foreign Relations.

The end of Saddam's dictatorship lifted the lid on a Pandora's box of tensions between Kurds and Arabs and Sunni and Shiite communities, he said.

"I wonder whether the demonstration effect would be the opposite of what we hoped it would be," said Biddle.

The best the United States can hope for is an Iraq that is "imperfect but stable," he said.

In another unintended consequence, the removal of Saddam bolstered Washington's arch-foe Iran, with Tehran forging links with leading Shiite parties amid a political vacuum.

For the American military, Iraq under Saddam preoccupied the top brass for two decades.

The decisive victory in the first Gulf war came as a vindication, burying the ghosts of the Vietnam War as hi-tech weaponry quickly rolled over Iraqi forces.

The Gulf war represented "the phoenix rising from the ashes of Vietnam," said David Johnson, a retired colonel and an analyst at the Rand Corporation.

Although America's public faith in the US military was restored, success in 1991 may have contributed to the Bush administration's over-confidence before the 2003 invasion, with little thought given to what would follow the fall of Saddam's regime.

As sectarian violence spiralled out of control in the years after the invasion, Bush sent in yet more US forces as commanders embraced a radically different approach, drawing on counter-insurgency doctrine that had been discarded after Vietnam.

"It took a superpower within a millimeter of its capacity to get it under control," Biddle said.

Fighting the war in Iraq required repeated combat tours for the all-volunteer US force, putting unprecedented strain on the armed forces.

The war also drained resources from the fight against the Taliban in Afghanistan, and as a candidate, Barack Obama called the Iraq conflict a dangerous distraction from the fight against Al-Qaeda and its associates.

As US president, Obama inherited a security agreement with Baghdad that calls for all US forces to pull out by the end of 2011. He has ordered the force to draw down to 50,000 by September 1.

It is too early to gauge the effect of the Iraq wars, though most analysts judge the 2003 invasion as an unnecessary disaster that permanently dented US influence, particularly among Islamic countries.

Some experts, however, say any assessment has to take into account what might have evolved without the US intervention.

According to Biddle, Saddam likely would have pursued nuclear weapons with relentless determination.

"There is some reason to speculate that he would eventually have been in the same position that Iran is in now," suspected of being poised to secure atomic weapons, he said.
