Never mind, I just got a PM from someone whose opinion I value and I now feel I have put this issue to rest. I no longer care about the issue, as I feel that my points have reached the target audience.

We never needed UK assistance, it was more of a political gesture.
No more special forces for you! Next!

You were more of a hindrance than a help, later. We did appreciate the inside info on kangaroos, though.
So was Saddam :PQuote:

I reckon you'd like being stuffed inside a kangaroo.
on topic (only reading the first post)
i believe that the iraqie soilder would have done the same to the american <_<
i could be wrong but he was a iraqie soilder who was there to attack american soilders.
sorry if this post offends you, but this is my opinion :)
*EDIT* BTW i still dont think its right
people like that man shot in that in the video conduct terrorist acts every day in iraq, blow up bombs and kill tens of random civilians every day. i feel no pity to him. but us soldiers acted very imaturely too, they had very wrong attitude, war is not a game.

Seems like a game to some of the guys, probably to the ones playing too much army-sponsored FPS's anyways.
Waittaminnit -
Iraqi terrorists? All I see is a bunch of locals giving an occupying force a decent fight.
WW2 comparison of the day: bet the nazis called the legendary French resistance terrorists...

From the clip I'd say what they did was unfair. If the guy was in great pain then maybe they could have put them out of his misery but shooting someone just because you can is unjust and unfair. I'm sure there would be outrage if we saw Iraqi soldiers shooting an American who was injured an joking about it afterwards.
I've also seen a clip on the news in which a group of relatively lightly armed demonstrating Iraqis are shot on by coalition troops (this was in the riots that occurred after Saddam was captured) and saw 3 Iraqis out of the group fall and die as they all ran from the ferocious onslaught of fire from the coalition troop.
Whilst both of these are only a short view into fights that may have taken hours and have been edited skillfully (no doubt for specific reasons) its ironic that an army fighting for "righteousness" and "freedom" could abuse its power in such ways...
rfxn you are just another ignorant fool, who do you think saddamn hussein is? just a peaceful president? most of you have no idea what he has done and do not want to know, only thing you are interested in is to bash usa as much as you can.
even today there was a bomb explosion and fuel truck caught fire, over 15 iraqis died, rfxn, educate me, who are these ppl who do these things? iraqi freedom fighters? - blowing up their own ppl??
Mihkel - I don't think anyone here disagrees that Saddam was a bloodthirsty tyrant. However the fact that the "liberating" army from the US is quite happy to spread democracy and freedom to the Iraqis by gunning them down doesn't show much sensitivity to the situation.
I'll agree that shit happens and war is war and everything, but if the US is trying to win hearts and minds in Iraq, they're not going about it very well.
:ph34r: Mihkel, pretty bold statement considering I only pointed out that not all Iraqis like to have their country occupied by a foreign power. What would you do if somebody decided to democratize the US by force of arms? There was some talk of the meaning of word "patriotism" is another thread, you might want to read some of the comments...
Nope, Saddam Hussein sure as hell is not a very nice guy. Personally, I couldn't care less if somebody put him out of his misery. I know several expatriot Iraqis in my home town who agree with me on this one - yet the same guys are fuming over seeing US troops trample on their home turf.Quote:

And even though I have little love for the US system in general, I also realize the only power that can stop this madness comes from the American people. If we can't have him sent off to the Hague at least take him out of office.
Unless of course another major terrorist attack happens on continental US and the current regime invokes martial law... You're a step away from a full-fledged military dictatorship already.

True face of the war in Iraq...
I wonder if this video actually made it way to public broadcast... I doubt it.
despite what we saw in that video the soldiers were doing their job.
my brother in law was in iraq the first few months afterthe war started and there were times when they were given orders to kill anything that moved including women and children and numerous times they did just that. reason? just like in vietnam these iraqi cowards use their childrenand women for war strapping bombs to them and sending them into a crowd of soldiers.
i think that the attitudes the soldiers showed was wrong but i see no wrong in killing the iraqi soldier. it may seem wrong but when faced with these kinds of people you cant take any chances.
If he shot women and children, then he is the coward!Quote:

I assume you refer to unarmed, non combative women and children. A woman or child is just as capable of killing as a man.
You will have seen the pictures of 12 year olds carrying guns, in various parts of the world. Those weapons kill, irrespective of who pulls the trigger.
If you refer to civilians, who are no threat to the soldiers, then I agree that to shoot them is totally wrong. Just following orders is no defence for this.
theyre alls tpid rednecks, i hate being an american, i wanna live in canada or italy, america sucks
hey wait a minute, why don't countries come and bomb us because we have weapons of mass destrction......hmmmmm......oh i got it! because we are amercia! we can do whatever want, yeah....thats it :)

Well, it looks like the infusion of new ideas has arrived. The World News forum is open to the lounge mentality. Such eloquent and well presented opinions. I can almost feel the water temperature rising as the "deep end" of the forum migrates south to the "kiddie pool".
Looks like there is no perfect solution to where this section should be located.

These are deep and important thoughts don't you know!
And I bet the majority of the worlds youth are echoing these exact same sentiments. (between reruns of their favourite sailor moon episodes)
We must be open to youthfull new ideas. These members are our future.
Yes, we can all learn from these scholars. :)
At least show them a little respect, they'll be running the world in a few years and we'll be depending on them to make important decisions and care for us in our old age.

Keep up the good work, you are a credit to yourself and those around you.
sorry for the double post, but hey, id like to see peace, but we all know it aint gunna happen, EVER. i am all for leaving them alone, they just cant leave anyone else alone, so screw 'em. they are a 3rd world nation full of scumbags. i do feel sorry for the innocent people who live there, but i suspect that "innocent" in that county are far and few in between. :)
It wasnt Iraqis in that video. I believe they were Chechian rebels or Afghan soldiers because Russian soldiers never went to Iraq...Quote:
