This shows how US attack choppers attack and kill several Iraqi civilians and 2 Reuters reporters.

This is fucking disgusting and if I were an American I'd be fucking ashamed right now.

Say, i wonder why al-Qaeda bomb us? We don't do anything in the slightest to them!!

They also shot up the two children in the black van when they shot it at the end of the clip and just went "Welp you shouldn't bring your kids in a war"

Goddammit

Ditto

We're the bad guys in this war, in years to come they'll be Iraqi war movies showing how we oppressed the middle east.
Oh wait, America's still depicted as heroes of the Vietnam war. Nevermind.

Well, I'm a little surprised, but still terribly disgusted.

The worst part is that they didn't have nuke turned on. The moment they got chopper gunner they were pretty much assured of a 25 kills streak.

How dare they kill people in a war!

the entire combat portion of this war has been the military equivalent of a cop pointing at a black guy, shouting "gun!" and then shooting him

alternative comment:how about I go to war with your mom to liberate your mom from tyranny and then open fire on her and a room full of people including reporters and children and then lie about it

Fuck off, we knew. We knew everything, we were right next door, and what did we do to stop it? We don't have much in the way of military, but our government could have at least intervened diplomatically beyond the obligatory "Uh, guys, isn't bin Laden supposed to be in Afghanistan?" We're as guilty as the Americans.

I get where you're coming from with this, but from what I understand, the primary reason that al-Qaeda hates America is that it's powerful and not an Islamic theocracy. The bombings and child-killings don't help their perception of America, of course.

Wasn't that the way the entire war started in the first place?

maybe you kill 10 innocent people, maybe you prevent terrorists from killing many more.
who's to say?
It's a war, so if someone is suspicious, you kill him.

It's a war! Everything's ok because it's a war! Morality, you say? Compassion? Fie on compassion! It's a war! It's perfectly acceptable to throw away every shred of human decency because it's a war! I was really worried there for a second, but you sure cleared things up. TROLL.

Wind-up Clock · April 06, 2010, 07:36:46 AM

nope, i take that all back. It's just really, really messed up.

Are we supposed to replace all bullets with paint ball bullets then and expect soldiers to fall down and pretend to be dead until the war is over?
Or maybe soldiers should wear big glowing arrows on their helmets in their teams colour.
