fuckfuckfuckfuck this war
That was one asshole wielding the cannon, but they did have to take out those Taliban.
Those helicopter guns are fucking scary. In a moment their is a cloud of smoke where a person used to be.
I can see the RPG. Though it was a shame the two reporters died they did what they had to do
Guess what. Civilians die in all wars/conflicts. It's called collateral damage, and even in some cases civilians are targeted on purpose. Also this is old news, Also those 2 reporters were hanging out with armed men in a warzone patrolled by helicopters and US military. (HINT: NOT A GOOD IDEA) [editline]20th August 2011[/editline] and no I do not support the war in Iraq whatsoever, should have never been there
Fuck man...
Oh man someone died going to war. Oh man oh god oh man oh god.
Iraq's fucked man D: at least i have some good memories there. I wish i can go back someday. At least the museum of Baghdad isn't fully pillaged we still have some artifacts that hasn't been stolen.... yet I wish i can do something... i'd love to shoot a terrorist captive point blank in the face. So much hate just came out of me D: [URL=http://filesmelt.com/][IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/947.jpg[/IMG][/URL] (im the kid far to the left)
I realize that civilian casualties happen during war, but its the way that the army treated what happened. Civilians coming to take care of the wounded? Shoot them. Dying kids? Leave them. The heli gunner was literally begging to be allowed to fire on civilians. Rules of engagement to shoot at literally anything that moves on the street, without first identifying? Thats fucked up. Being reprimanded for checking your targets? Goddamn.
"That's what they get for bringing their kids to a battle." But it wasn't a battle. And god dammit they were only picking up their dead friends. God dammit.

You really think in seconds he could distinguish civilians from possible enemies let alone the pixel sized specks that were the children in the van? Obviously it wasn't a good call but I would rather assume enemy first else I could get killed (or in the case of the gunner guys on the ground)

It may sounds heartless or durp internet badassy but people die in war and you have to desensitize yourself to it. Really not only in war, people die everyday. You can't play mother to the world and try to save every single life you meet some people die it is the way things work.
If they were going to get shot by a guy from the van, someone would have gotten out with a four-foot long stick on their shoulder. One or two men ran out and immediately rushed to the wounded. Clearly, trying to destroy a helicopter.
I remember watching the vid the first time, by itself and linked to from fb. It's horrible what war can let people do. Like that stupid mofo you see beating his wife or his dog and such things, in war he can mess people up loads. If he sees the opportunity to do all the horrible stuff he wants to do he'll take it.
Kind of looks like Call of Duty. Sad though.

Im sick of this sort of shit. Get the fuck out of that country and mind your own buisness. What it comes to is "Fuck off".
After seeing the video dozens of times, I've yet to see a single glimpse of something that could be even remotely interpreted as being an rpg, nor can I see those five or six guys that were supposed to carry ak-47s.

[/QUOTE] One thing he said in the video was that their tactics regarding civillians were absolutely ridiculous, as you could shoot someone for looking at you. Did you even watch it?
[QUOTE=Incognito;31841346]Because obviously the US has killed all those civilians and none have died due to the constant suicide bombers, car bombs, roadside bombs, and the general civil war between the Sunni and Shi'a.[/QUOTE] From 2003-2005. 37% by the US forces. 9% by the anti-occupation forces. [editline]20th August 2011[/editline] And the rest due to other causes. 36% by crime, which I don't know what it means.

Someone with a citizens world cant understand a militants world.
Collateral Damage has been in all wars World War I had a total of 6.8 million civilian casualties. World War II had a total of 40 to 52 million civilian casualties. The Korean War had a total of 2.5 million civilian casualties. The Vietnam War had an estimate of about 2 million civilian casualties. All of these wars had a shorter US participation then Afghanistan and Iraq.
