Frederic Bastiat, 'The Law' 1850 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes." JohnSwinton, 1830-1901, Former chief-of-staff New York Times ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "The bold effort the present bank has made to control the Government, the distress it has wantonly produced ... are but premonitions of the fate that awaits the American People should they be deluded into a perpetuation of this institution (The Bank of the United States), or the establishment of another like it." Andrew Jackson (December 2, 1834) |

User ID: 906324 United States 03/03/2010 09:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I served in the USAF for 8 years, and had 3 tours in Saudi Arabia in the 1990's, I never got to see real action in combat, but was always in a support role to aircrews flying missions. While I would like to think nothing like this has ever happened, I'm sure it has knowing human nature and the mind set of some of the young men recruited into the Army and Marines. It is deplorable to think that our men in the armed forces could or would do things like this, but this video is proof otherwise. Some would like to use this video to prove all American military forces are evil, and that the wars we fight are unjust and this is the only result of our involvement. But this simply isn't the case. Just as the video shows extreme evil in a few bad men who call themselves Americans, there are countless other instances of an American doing good for these people. I myself have never agreed with the Iraqi War, or our reasons for going there, but we did, and we did at the very least liberate a people from an entire regime of bad men just like the few shown here. The men in this video have to be held accountable for their actions, hopefully in a court of law, or in their own minds as they have to live with this the rest of their lives, and at the very least they will be held accountable to God. These are horrible men who got away with the things they did because better men, out of fear were afraid to speak up to stop them. I would ask anyone who has served and has seen or committed this type of atrocity to step forward, be accountable or tell what you know of actions like this.......If not this will haunt you for the rest of your life, and the innocent victims souls will tear at you for vengeance and demand justice be served to those who would commit these types of crimes. Real Americans stand up for others in need, not take advantage of those who are forced to depend on our "involvement" in their nation, and actions like these are simply those of weak cowards. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 730536 United States 03/04/2010 12:24 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There are criminals in every segment of the population and the military is no different. How about that one just arrested in California suspected of sexual assaults and several murders of very young girls? He brutally beat and raped a 13 yo but she got away. He raped and killed Chelsea King if we believe the DNA evidence. etc. On and on it goes. Crimes and criminals everywhere, even in England where these films were evidently produced. Lots of crime there as well. The military is a cross-segemnt of the population with the same problems as the population in general. |
