Tell me this isn't what it appears. The narration I can understand being BS, but why the car? Video |
| This happened. If you believe the narrator then the big bad US soldiers crushed the poor iraqi peasants car and livelyhood. If on the otherhand you can think for yourself, you may see that some of our boys caught achmed and some of his friends looting and destroyed their means of transportation. Seems like a simple lesson to me: DON'T LOOT. |
thats what i got. taxi driver making a living or not.....dont fucking loot. does the taxi driver think hes fucking special that he can take things that arent his? the soldiers should have shit on the remains of the car and wiped thier asses with the upholstry. |
Please try and use your head... they were theives! Since we are the defacto police force over there, what do you think we should do? Send them to the local judge for community service picking up trash outside the local YMCA? Oh, wait, this happened in Iraq not here in the states! |
|
No, but come on. That's not teaching anyone a fucking lesson. That only pisses them off and forces them to hate us even more! Don't give me that fuck them attitude. I don't care about them, but if we're going to let them live and not want them to take arms against us, then we should be dealing with things a little differently. Those people don't own shit, so take what they have left and destroy it?! Ya' sounds like a good idea, NOT!!!!!! |
|
yeah but it was a waste of ammo, and those two idiot CDATS(computerized, dumb assed tankers) were extremely unprofessional. in front of a fucking news crew to boot! if I were their CO I would have their ass scrubbing latrines and bust them down to pv2 while I'm at it. there is no excuse to act like idiots, those two need to grow the fuck up. I'm not defending looters at all, I used to use my ASP baton on them since we werent allowed to shoot them. after we would subdue them we would give them over to the Iraqi police, who would promptly beat the living dogshit out of them. |

That's a little more like it. I don't understand these young punkass kids who get away with everything in another country. It's fucked up. Have some respect for the job you're doing. We also shouldn't allow video there anymore! This and the prison scandal! Why are we letting these idiots film themselves being stupid!!!!!!!!!!????? |
i agree with the video thing. but camcorders\cameras are getting so small these days its almost an inconvienace not having one. however, when fighting a war, leave the camreas at home. never know when it could come back to bite you in the ass. |
| Honestly, I know this kinda shit is going to happen. It's unfortunate to me that it does, but we should not allow these cameras in places like this anymore. It's just too risky. I've got one that CNN made where a group soldiers killed a severely wounded Iraqi. He was a homicide-bomber, but you can't tell and the vid is edited to look real negative. |
is that the one where they have an interview with the kid and he said something along the lines: "yea, that felt good, lets do it again!" |
