  • Those guys had weapons and they got what they deserved. Stop hating Americans . We are good people this country has done alto of bad things but we also do alot of good . Survival of the fittest. don't fuck with us and this won't happen to your country

  • UK idiots.....inbread leaders, bad teeth..what do you expect?....go chase a fox down a hole..whoever posted this is completely idiotic and misinformed...

  • I thought we went to liberate'em from an evil dictator (that we helped become, and knew he was), that had WMD (never found). Then we end up destroying the country, polluting w/DU, killing 150,000 (low-end estimate) using "smart bombs" about 100,000 of them civilians (we bring them "freedom"). Then, they said we're there bc Muslims are evil (the latest boogeyman). If u defend this u are either a shrill, ignorant or brainwashed. Sadly, some defend their puppet masters.....

  • why would they be plowing a field at night?

  • When you watch the one man shot first the second man bends down to unwrap a weapon to engage the copter.

  • He's skipping because he's being shot at? Did you not hear the gunners say there way out of range? The rounds didn't even land near them.

  • There is some points that he is missing.

    First off all. What is the item that is being trowed down on the field?

    And he states its a father kissing his son.

    Where did he get that information?

    For me it looks like he is turning around to look since they are being shot at.

    There is no real proof on whats happened. And what lead up to this event. its a short video with a guy talking from his viewpoint saying things are the facts without being able to prove it.

  • SPOT ON Analysis. Thanks. Great upload.

  • Farmers don't follow markers several rows into their plowing, they simply follow the previous rows ruts. Also, the guy is in a sprint to drop the object off. If there are any farmers here on LL that SPRINT while farming, please raise your hand. Then he tosses it very skittishly, trying to separate himself from the object a More..s quickly as possible.

  • disgusting and evil

  • Blah blah blah. Loved the video. Audio sucked.

  • I say fuckin kill them all, they're scum.. i don't care if they were plowing a field, or plowing their goat, fuck them. Any coward that's willing to strap bombs to their chests, fly planes into buildings, or place bombs on the side of the road and hide like a little bitch deserves nothing less than a bullet to the face. Fuck Iraq and any other country that houses these people. Stand up for your country and do something, or America will and you wont enjoy our occupation of your country.

  • Lesley Stahl on U.S. sanctions against Iraq: We have heard that a half million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?

    Secretary of State Madeleine Albright: I think this is a very hard choice, but the price--we think the price is worth it.

  • most faulty analysis on youtube

    1. you don't know they were plowing anything, you know there's a plow in a field.

    2. If the object were "springy", it wouldve been flexing wildly when he was running with it in hand.

    3. there's no reason for someone tip toeing around then sprinting out in a field throwing "markers".

    4. they need not have weapons in hand to be legit targets

    5. he cant hear himself being shot at, the copter's miles away

    etc., etc., etc.

  • @robocong7420 Then why would he kiss him ?

  • @punkerleader

    because he's an inbred goat-fucking terrorist, that's why

  • @robocong7420 No ur an idiot that was probably his son our soldiers just get trigger happy

  • @punkerleader

    his son planting weapons on the side of the road. good riddance

  • @AmericanPowerBase

    "your little commie global warming center?"

    Commie? Being responsible is not a trait that exists only in communism, though I think communism lacks responsibility...We have only ONE planet we can live on, if we are to survive and thrive on this planet, leaving it in a condition where our children can survive- we need to look after it. Sure this planet will be around for billions of more years, but that doesn't mean WE will be the ones inhabiting it if the conditions are poor.

  • @NerdsUnited47

    you're not suggesting there's anything wrong with killing terrorists, ARE YOU??

  • @robocong7420

    What the f*ck does this have to do with that comment? Re-read the comment, either your comprehension skills are poor, or you're incredibly dishonest.

  • @NerdsUnited47

    so you DONT have a problem with killing terrorists. good. neither do i

  • @AmericanPowerBase Prick!

  • Ting the rag heads that grin apon the thought of your death. Dont worry though. Obama is pulling us oit so im sure youll get your wish about them stepping on our land cause they wont stop till the every american is dead. Remember and never forget 9/11. Semper Fi mother fuckers

  • @DEVILDOGBLAZE

    "Remember and never forget 9/11"

    Who will? No one will forget, 9/11 was used as an excuse to justify an illegal war, to satisfy oil hunger and the military industrial complex. And you being a marine? But you're too stupid to be a marine, you have the intellect of an average redneck...Unless of course marine corps is full of rednecks...But I won't be so hasty, I'll just assume that you're a moron trying to give the marines a bad name- buh bye!

  • @NerdsUnited47 if u dont like oil then give up all your cars and gass powered tools... untill then STFU... we are in a holly war... a war to belive in our own religion.. a war to continue a way of life i and many other enjoy... if you dont like that turn against us and see how long you last..

  • @sseliet88

    "if u dont like oil then give up your cars"

    We can't ditch oil if people aren't coming up with solutions/alternatives to it. The money spent on war could have been used to come up with alternatives.

    "until then STFU"

    I won't because it's not productive to not voice opinions.

    "a war to belive in our own religion"

    The Muslims are fighting a holy war for religion, Americans are fighting for oil.

    "if you dont like that turn against us and see how long you last"

    *yawn* silly rednecks.

  • @NerdsUnited47 you are arguing these fool's points admirably.

  • @sseliet88 Ur a fucking idiot the war in iraq was pointless but to u it was justified for oil wat about all soldiers that died they died for oil thats justified bet ur one of them idiot that voted for bush twice and as for war in afghan i think we should back out and build up defenses here in the us the cia even says there not even that many al qaeda in afghan fuckin osama bin laden was not even in afghan

  • @NerdsUnited47

    there is no such thing as an illegal war - nor there is no such thing as a legal war either.

    war is a completely amoral thing

  • @DEVILDOGBLAZE

    fuck you fuck your 9/11 fuck bush fuck that nigger obama and you redneck americans.

    I am from Europe and I fully support east people, you came to their country and fucked

    them up... you deserve 9/11 one per week fuckers.

  • Ting the ragheads,that want you dead. Dont worry though. Obama is pulling us out so when they come over here im sure youll get your death wishes. Semper fi mother fuckers!

  • And what ever dumbass asked why we are in iraq if the've never stepped on our soil. It because if they did little bitches like you wojld be begging us to come save you. I love the corps and if you have a problem with what we do how bout you write congress and bitch to them cause obviously writing on youtube isnt doing shit. We die so fat ass good for nothing shit bags like you liberal fucks can eat mcdonalds and sleep warm in your bed at night. How bout you support your country instead of suppor

  • @DEVILDOGBLAZE

    "what ever dumbass asked why we are in iraq"

    I agree that a person who would ask such a question, would be a dumbass as the answer is pretty clear: OIL.

    It's not about giving freedom to Iraqis, otherwise Iraq wouldn't have been the only country being "saved". Congratulations to a new Islamic state being formed!

    "I love the corps"

    Me too, but I don't support the politicians who are sending troops to their deaths for people who don't even like them, or for false reasons.

  • Did you really just call the marine corps a army? ignorance. Notice you cal" them insergants. And duh theh dont have weapons in thier hands because they tried to hide them. Amd damn fucking right he wants to pull the trigger. Youd understand too if some dumb fucks thinking if they kill americans they will get sent to heaven with virgins awaiting them. Of course he wants to pull the trigger on some fucks that torture thier own women and children. Now tell me why he shouldnt have?

  • Plowing a field? With a rocket launcher? Okay.

    Stupid fucking commie.

  • @IgnitionUnlimited

    "Stupid fucking commie."

    Typical response from a dumb American redneck- if they ain't Murikans, they're commies! Herp Derp!

  • You skipped the best parts :(

  • Why are they running back and forth to get these weapons....if you knew anything....we find caches of weapons daily... in fields.

  • Plowing a field? You son of a Cunt....wow

  • Is this really a fucking video of someone complaining about us killing 3 insurgents with RPG's and aks? You have some fucking nerve you terrorist.

  • If your troops are getting fired at by rpg's on a regular basis what does the guy running into the field look like he is dropping, why is he running both ways?.

    Its a combat zone and his behaviour coupled with the shape of the item forced a quick combat fire decision at that moment in time. They couldnt spend hours watching video.

    hindsight is a wonderful thing, but it is always used out of context to criticise something that happened and always by people too willing to cry "told you so"

  • oh PLEASE.... terrorists... not a pipe... not "unarmed"... yes it's a tractor, it's three guys in conspiracy. After the first shots were fired the guy on the tractor grabs a gun and is trying to get ready to shoot back... TOUGH SHIT. They shouldn't have been tossing weapons into a field.

  • excellent. Unlikely they were insurgents or terrorists.

  • @bfctbone Conspiracy? People are being killed in your name, even though accidental- it's unacceptable. You're blocked and comment deleted, next time you comment, be sure it's constructive criticism and not full of personal attacks.

  • @NerdsUnited47 I suppose telling Englander1000 to 'Fuck Off' constitutes constructive criticism. Look fella, you can't put hokey propaganda on here for all to see then start getting sensitive. You obviously feel very strongly about this, but that doesn't make you right. So stiffen up that lower lip, pull up your shorts, and take it if someone is going to stand on the line with you. Anyway, nice investigative work. But you're still wrong.

  • @dayradio65

    "constructive criticism"

    You seem to be selectively blind, you obviously didn't read the rest of my comment, otherwise you wouldn't have said that. Read points 1 and 2 for the constructive criticism.

    "propaganda"

    Advocating for extreme care when in war- is not propoganda. If we treat civilians of other countries as if they were ours- we'd less likely be looked upon as villains. I've also wasted valuable time on those who can't even read my comment properly, I've had enough of this.

  • @Nerds Extreme care during an arrest, yes please. Extreme care during a cub scout .22 target shoot, of course. Extreme care during open heart surgery, you betcha. Extreme care during war?? There is very little room for it. War is brutality, death, and collateral damage. War is killing, near misses, and watching your friends die. Plainly put, sir, war really is hell. These men don't get the luxury of bleeding their hearts on YouTube. Theirs bleed on the battle field. Cut them some slack.

  • @TheJsg1500 Iraq never declared war with America. No Iraqi soldier ever set foot on American soil.

    Why are there American troops in Iraq?

  • @TheCentralServices I love this argument by foriegners (not saying you are one) because they are always the first ones to cry for the United States to do somethign (just like they did with Libya, and are beginning to do with Syria) and then condemn the United States when they do it with extreme prejudice. There was already international outcry after the 1st Gulf War to engage Saddam Hussein militarily but the United States never did so until 2003.

  • @Superfluential Do you realise that as a result fom WW2 there is something, called international law?

  • @Superfluential "they"? Who do you exactly mean by "they"?

  • @TheCentralServices That's the best you have? Seriously? If you're that ignorant to the issue then you'll not lure me into wasting my time with you. maybe you should use the inernet for something other than porn, video games, and sill youtube propaganda pieces. go do some grown-up research, then come back to me.

  • @TheJsg1500 Well if you are so intelligent and I am so retarded you tell me instead of insulting people you don't know.

  • @TheCentralServices Figures. Another retard that needs to be spoon fed. Grow up and figure it out for yourself, and in the meantime, it would be nice if you would stop wasting so much of my oxygen.

  • @TheJsg1500

    Instead of avoiding the question, perhaps you should answer it? There was no justification for the war in Iraq whatsoever, if you're going to talk about "but they had dictators", yeah, only the countries with oil and dictators are worth cleaning up- American tax payer money is being used to make a few guys at the top rich, and you're buying into the pro-war propaganda.

  • @NerdsUnited47 And nice duck job blocking someone just for disagreeing with you. You tit.

  • @TheJsg1500

    "nice duck job blocking someone just for disagreeing with you. You tit."

    He wasn't blocked for disagreeing with me, many people here disagree with me yet remain unblocked, I think it has something to do with their honesty? Something the guy I blocked didn't have- and it seems you lack it too.

    "stop wasting so much of my oxygen"

    There's plenty of oxygen to go around, and besides, the oxygen doesn't belong to you or anyone.

    Dishonest debate is not appreciated here- get lost.

  • @NerdsUnited47 Thanks for monitoring the discussion in a reasonable, British way. ;->

  • @NerdsUnited47 Well done! Who made this video? It is shocking!

  • Hey, wonderful job.

  • what a boring bastard you are,get a life

  • Wow what a completely pointless analysis :P

  • Comment removed

  • did you hear how many times they asked for confirmation

    watch?v=m1jD7v2ucBc&feature=bf­_next&list=WLF179C4441B88E6ED&­index=5

    fuck you you liber socalist. you are no smarter than us because you have a childrapist voice. hay ass hole. kill yourself. better yet. enter the military and try taking a real life.

  • he was carrying a stinger anti-air missile you liberal fuck!

  • Can't believe they actually opened fire and killed some farmers... Ridiculous.

  • @VanishingDaniel How do you know they were farmers? Maybe they were, maybe they weren't. Don't make an assumption about this video. Don't criticize the men that were piloting the Apache. Only criticize when you know for a fact they were farmers.

  • FACT: Later in this video a STINGER MISSLE was present. SO to all of you fucking hippies, what would you rather see? A bunch of dead "Civillians" or a US Pilot with a FAMILY BACK HOME DEAD. THEY ARE NOT FREEDOM FIGHTERS THEIR GODDAMN TERRORISTS! THEY WOULD KILL YOU IN A SECOND DAMNIT!

  • WAR IS RELIGION TO AMERICA

    GET READY...THE WORST IS GOING TO COME

  • Comment removed

  • My question is how loud are apache gunshots? Cause it seems outrageous that "insurgents" knowing that they are placing "rpgs" and performing terrorist actions did not run from gunshot noises. You would assume they would be anxious and run or at least hide, but in contrast they continued on with their business. im not picking sides, im just pointing out things i feel are strange compared to natural human reactions.

  • Comment removed

  • @AKisyaoming Doesn't matter how loud they are, the rounds are supersonic and thus you are dead before you hear it fire.

  • Comment removed

  • @Diraphe I realize that but the first round of bullets did not kill the target....im wondering why they didnt run after the first round of bullets that hit the dirt in front of them...the time between the first round of fire and second round of fire...first round was at 7:40 ... second round was 8:15......the son was walking around the plow and standing straight up after the first round of shots? and the father just walks across the open field?

  • everyone being happy that three iraqis were killed makes me wonder if the soldiers who shot them had the same mindset especially because OTHER iraqis have killed their fellow soliders in combat before this incident. Human emotions and feelings of revenge are very strong and sometimes uncontrollable. That being said none of you all are 100% sure whether or not the stick figure was actually a marker or a rpg.

  • ever heard of rocket launcher? that was rocket launcher shell, you cant tell if this is one, can you, because you never handled one. and why does he drop it in a way as if he is trying to get rid of it or hide it?

  • Anyone think it looks suspicious...two guys, all alone, one running UP a hill just to drop a piece of wood as a marker pole? Which wasn't standing up as a pole would.

  • SO FARMERS CAN'T BE INSURENTS?YOUR A FUCKING IDIOT!THEY HAD A WEAPON AND THEY GOT SMOKED.YOUR A LIMEY ASSHOLE!

  • No one plows at night.They got what they asked for.

  • they are terrorists , they deserve what they got

  • LOL! YEAH. they're "ploughing a field"

    The only way anyone could believe that is if they WANTED to believe that.

  • Goood For them raghead fuckers... all raghead is a potential suicide bomber.

  • @lrecollet Wow. Your a special one, arent you?

  • @ArniieeCDJ yes i am... and you aint?

  • These guys MIGHT have been farmers and they MIGHT have been insurgents...but the US invaded Iraq without any clearance by the UN, thus against international laws and so the apache pilots should not have been there in the first place.

  • @NKA23 At the end of the day, the UN can fuck off because we will do what it takes to defend ourselves. If it was so much against the UN, why do we have a shit-load of other UN countries helping us? If it was illegal, I doubt 20+ other countries would participate in said illegal action.

  • @m1ndfr34k117

    No, of course not...if a corrupted cop does something wrong, other corrupted cops won´t join him.

    Certainly...

  • @NKA23 So you're saying the entire UN is corrupt? Then why do you care if we got clearance from a corrupt organization? You're contradicting yourself already.

  • @m1ndfr34k117

    Nope...I didn´t say that.

    But see, when Bush and Cheney lied about Iraq having IWD not ALL UN-nations capable of joining forces and attack Iraq did it.

    Same thing with Afghanistan.

    Most 9/11-terrorists were from Saudi Arabia, none was from Iraq or Afghanistan.

    Maybe you should think a bit more sceptical about the guys spending your tax money...

  • @NKA23 No, but the majority did. Some of the nations weren't targeted by terrorists to the extent of the US so why should they join in if it's not a big problem for them? Even then, most of the nations sent one form of help or another.

    Perhaps most 9-11 terrorists were from Saudi Arabia, but most Al-Qaeda members were from Afghanistan. Al-Qaeda literally means "the base" and Al-Qaeda is based in Afghan. Iraq was to supplement Afghan and get Saddam out.

    I am skeptical just not of the military

  • marker poles used at 7:28pm? not unless they are glow-in-dark...

    i'm unconvinced these are real farmers mainly because of one action

    the driver of the sedan makes once the first individual is shot by the

    helicopter gunner. the "young" man is hurrying to take the wrappings

    off another rod-like object found near the plower a second before he

    himself is gunned down. i may be wrong but it looks like he was trying

    to uncover a weapon to defend himself.

  • i didn't realize farmers in iraq worked without any lights during the

    night. maybe the rods are glow-in-dark? i did compare this footage

    with another and after the "father" is taken down the "son" pulled off

    what seems like wrapping off another rod taken off the plow machine.

    this rod was not the original that the "son" threw on the field earlier.

    the location of the thrown rod is further up from the plow machine.

  • 1) Apache pilots are not farmers

    2) hindsight is 20/20 in combat its hard to examine every detail.

    3) in my 3 tours in iraq from 03-06 most attacks (rockets,motors,etc...) were launched from such fields.

    4) if the object thrown on the ground wasn't a weapon, why then was the "farmers" first instinct to open the object? it is clear as day in the unedited version.

    take your bs somewhere else

  • Hey ass hole did you see the rpg launcher he tossed in the fiel for his rag head buddy to grab!!!!!!!!!!

  • where theres a war, theres gonna be innocent lives lost..my question is, how the fuck can those guys not hear a helicopter in the air?? u can easily hear one even if its like 10miles away, especially if its idle-ling up there.. 3 guys n a stick shaped object which looks a bit too light to be an RPG (cos it bounced when it was dropped) Vs an Apache armed to its teeth with rockets, missiles n enough rounds to take out pearl harbour..hmmm..that sounds fair..NOT!!!

  • @johnnyhks n to add to that, ive seen the aftermath of this video ages ago n didnt thought much of it, now ive seen the full video, i totally have different views about it now..

    Im not for or against wars, but everyone has a choice, u can serve for your country (knowing the risks), come back, be a hero if u wanna call it that, n have something to be proud of years down the line. Or stay back home n work n be happy with your family..

  • brdais82 you are a moron. Being from Germany I can ensure you that not one single person who lived during that time that I personally know back home is not thanking the Americans for ending the insanity of the third Reich. What the hell are you talking about anyways? You are comparing todays technology to back in 1945 where they blindly had to drop bombs? You can't be serious

  • These limey cumsuckers didn't have any problem with killing civilians when they were melting babies to their mothers' breasts in the firebombings of Hamburg and Dresden during WWII. Now that it's someone else's desperate moment, the world suddenly has a conscience. America has no friends. A superpower, by its very nature, can not have friends. It can only have enemies and bitter hangers on. Furthermore, since when do measuring sticks have a heat signiture hotter than the surrounding air?

  • Thunderfoot?

  • I hate ignorant people. If you were on the Apache and you were in a heated area, you would not be able to tell who posed an imminent threat or not. From the beginning, one person suspiciously running into the field does raise eyebrows. Would you rather take the shot, or risk getting your entire helo shot down and getting surrounded by hostile forces?

    Fuck this anti war bullshit they're teaching. The honorable men and women over there do more than you assholes do in a lifetime in a day.

  • LOL the arab running

  • When my dad farmed, he always ran back and forth to his tools completely confused. But then again, this British man must've farmed for years in the British country side.

  • If the soldiers had time to properly analyse the situation then I would condone them. The Item That was hidden looked like an RPG and it's a split second judgement. If they werent acting so suspicious then maybe it would have had a different outcome.

  • the gunner can't look in slowmotion

    so it really looked they were dropping weapons

  • You are such a typical piece of shit, wanna know how I know that they did have weapons...my unit was there, want to know something else, they use farm equipment to use, carry, and bury weapons you dumb asshole, instead of putting down my brothers how about pick up a weapon and stand in front of them so they can keep fighting for you to speak of this bullshit

  • @SeanD83

    You are sucha typical piece of shit, wanna know how I know they didn't have weapons? Because I was there with them. Want to know something else? The farm equipment is generally mistaken by rednecks to be weapons you dumb asshole, what's your excuse? You just want to kill people who aren't white, admit it!

    Exposing a mistake by American troops doesn't mean they're all incompetent, keep up your efforst and you WILL make it look that way ;)

  • @NerdsUnited47 Man you probably just another college kid that is into the whole anti war bullshit. Bro you want to know something scary? Being ran by another country and having guys stand out your fucking house with a gun and you have to report to him every time you take a shit. Watch what you fucking say because we have good men in other countrys trying to make sure no one comes to our home. If you want to back up these "FARMERS" i dare you to get on a plane and get your happy ass over their.

  • @PointOutMan yeah the americans are doing that 

  • @NerdsUnited47 You are in no place to talk you havent been there...and yeah, no that guy threw a weapon,they can obviously hear the chopper or see it, they freaked and ditched the weapon to avoid being caught...and rednecks shoot guns all the time, they know what a fucking firearm is, you criticize the soldiers of being discriminatory when you do it yourself...hypocrite..you have never been there so shut the fuck up, your speaking out of ignorance...

  • @AscavariServante i think if they were up to something they would of just ran or acted like they werent doing anything

  • @NerdsUnited47 yeah of corse u were there u sound like a 16 year old ur so obviously not there or ude be DEAD! they were shot so how were u there with them?

  • @NerdsUnited47 when the guy is running into the field you can clearly tell its an rpg launcher with no rpg in it just stop if our soldiers kill civilians so do yours they are no smarter than ours what makes our soldiers supposedly so stupid and i guarantee that we sent a squad in to collect the weapons they dont just leave them there just bc everybody is dead and why would we release this video if it was civilians

  • @NerdsUnited47 you are a piece of shit. you dont know what you are talking about you piece of trash. you werent there nerdsunited. you are just a whiny judgemental liberal excuse for a human being.

  • @SeanD83 So as you where there , what was the weapon , a pipe bomb , rpg , and excuse my ignorance , but was this field a route for troops / vehicles? I ve always wondered why if these guys were such a threat surely interogation could have proved useful , and if your unit was there why didnt you apprehend them and check out the suspected weapon? instead these guys were unarmed and slaughtered , how can deny that?

  • @SeanD83 everyone is allowed to have an opinion, the evidence points to no direct danger so the pilots they should have waited for more evidence before firing, it seems to me thats they where a little trigger happy on this one, dont get me wrong i have seen lots of these cam vids and 95% of the time the pilots are justifed in what they do, i have been fighting in Afgan, served in the Royal Engineers.

  • @SeanD83 The narrator fails to mention how the "object" shows up a nice glowing white on the heat-sensitive night-vision, which means that the object is pretty warm, like hmm i dont know,,.... A WEAPON.

  • @SeanD83 Why are there American troops in Iraq?

  • Has this guy been on the ground in the middle east getting shot at by RPGs and watching people get blown to bits by IEDs?(civilians included, they are often the main targets for insurgents) If not, this guy is in no position at all to judge the conduct of US soldiers.

  • Pilots are just doing what they are trained to do, war isint pretty and fair, civilians are going to die no matter what. These "analysis" thingies are bs, people just see what they want to see.

  • get some

  • The gunner wanted to kill these famers from the beginning off. They had no chance of survival unless somone else than the pilot and the gunner where able to watch the situation through the same camera. It shouldn't be lik this.....

  • Looks like he was getting rid of some weapons at the start of the video.AN rpg O

  • nerdsunited, how much free time do you have? get a fucking job. how do you know they were just farmers? Hes just gonna go give that rpg to one of his buddies to kill some americans. Im sure you wouldnt be thinking this way if you were actually out in the fight, but no, youre one of those guys who will sit on their computer for hours analyzing every little detail to try and find something that will make them look bad. GOOD THING they got smoked, they would prbly be out plantin an ied right now.

  • People need to see the middle ground with opinion here. @ NerdsUnited47, I respect that you analyzed this situation and i believe you have some compelling points. That said, a gunship pilot in the hotseat does not have the luxury of zooming in, replaying, slowing down, and carefully studying the videos to make a carefully informed decision. This is not a shoot-or-be-shot situation, however if these men were indeed insurgents, the gunman's decision to fire could've saved lives down the road.

  • Also, there were points in this video where you failed to meet a standard of proof for your conjecture: for instance, there is no support to the asseriton that the gun operator "wanted to pull the trigger". given that they took many minutes to recieve the go-ahead on this engagement suggests to me that even if the questions were rhetorical, all the USAF personnell involved followed proper guidelines for engagement.

  • Whether their decision was correct or mislead might never be known, so I would suggest everyone here consider what I've said and realize there might be no wrong or right here.

  • Shut the fuck up and smoke the bitches! I bet your one of the know it all assholes that sat there for a year studying the twin towers tragedy to pick at it and say the government plan that attack. They rigged it with explosives to knock them down. You have to much time on your hand so go get a job like picking up the remains of the people after we smoke them. Since your innocent we have no problem smoking you too.

  • the owner of this video is an asshole trying to give excuses to kill innocent people" who farms in a middle of a day, asshole they are workers thats their work time they are used to it so take ur vide and shovel it in ur ass imagine these people were ur family and a russian bomber attacked them fuck u and fuck ur country freedom takers

  • just speculation. in a war sone you must see evrything as a treath.no room for errors.in this situations is verry critical ,it only means it is you or your enemy.shoot befor and ask qestinons later.

  • die fuckin goatfuckers taliban !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • If i ran the country you be the first commie i'd put a bullet into...

  • @Englander1000

    1) Criticising wrongful actions of soldiers doesn't make one a commie.

    2) Your comment indicates that you are no better than Stalin who'd have a bullet put through anyone disagreeing with him - you are a mirror reflection of the very thing you hate.

    3) Fuck off.

  • @NerdsUnited47 that wasnt a plow or other farm tool at 0:15 ok? or at 2:53 this whole analysis is bullshit

  • @NerdsUnited47 you have a good point

  • @Englander1000 k nazi

  • your a liar you fucking asshole

  • How come you didn't show the part where the "father" tried to pull his "marker polls" out after his "son" was shot. Why would you pull marker polls out after you witness your son get shot? you wouldn't that because they weren't marker polls it was a RPG. Fuck i hate pussies like you, but with a name like Nerdsunited47 i didn't expect much.

  • @antwanjamison1414

    Because this is a mirrored video, all videos on my channel are.

  • Please... it's clear what's going on here... to expect our military to do hours of analysis prior to taking any action is BS. Our fighting forces need the ability to wage this war w/o arm chair generals expecting them to go this.

    Why a field is expected to be 'level' is absurd... who cares... these guys hid a weapon... he's running FAST, trying to hide it... it's NOT a pipe... it's a GUN!

  • Why are we to except this guys interpretation of the facts over the men who were eyewitness? These men are highly trained in the I.D. of weapons and experienced in the observation of insergents. His lack of refernces such as plowing after dark and the common use of the luminary divice further weakens his attempt to explain the "farmers" actions.

  • A question he should answer is this, with all of the threats out there to thort the mission of the U.S., why would they waste their time shooting unarmed farmers that pose no threat whatsoever? If farming at night was a common practice. They would know that, and not be concerned about their actions.

  • whats this ? a new liberal version of the facts? I am constantly amazed at how the liberal mind works.

  • the "rod shaped object" could be a number of things ie a pipe bomb y do u think that they stopped the tractor. if it was a marking pole y would it just be thrown on the floor and ran away from. plus you only have a segment of a video the apache could of being tracking these guys for miles.

  • This video was not thunderf00ts finest hour. He spent hours and hours defending it. Must have been hundreds of posts. Each time somebody showed a logical flaw in his thinking, he simply ignored it and came up with an illogical or simplistic explanation. It was really quite pathetic and left a bad impression of him in my mind. Perhaps he has changed, but this poor video will always linger in his background.

  • you are british ans therefor anti american. Your guys are in iraq also so shut the hell up

  • your so anti american this video cant be taken seriously. Ive seen the 30 Minuit uncut version. They fired on a US patrol then were able to get away from the patrol. The tractor is not even theirs they ran into the civilians field and began to dump weapons in the field the reason they didnt fire on the apache is because it was hovering over a mile away

  • @GamingMusicVideos1 IS THAT WHY THEY WERE WATCHING THEM SO LONG? BECAUSE THEY NEW THEY WERE TERRORIST? HUH?

  • @upunkpunk yea they needed to get permission to fire which usually takes a really long time

  • Comment removed

  • ive lived on a farm and no farmers would run up a hill and quickly drop a tool,at 7.30 at night you would be too tired from hard work all day.

  • @RedJellyable WELL ITS A HILL I ALWAYS RUN UP THE STAIRS EVEN WHEN IM TIRED AND WHY WOULD DROPPING WEAPONS IN A FIELD POSSIBLY DO

  • @upunkpunk you have never worked on a farm if you did you would know farmers never run up hills at the end of the day,as for droping weapons in the field them same weapons kill our soldiers,these are not farmers but insurgents who kill americans and british soldiers anyway they can so i dont feel sorry for them and you shouldnt as they would cut your head off if they could.

  • This video was officially released by the US military, right? So it's assumed they sent out personel to investigate the aftermath. Think they would have released this if it was peaceful farmers? Nuff said.

  • @caddo21 HOW DO WE KNOW THEY RELEASED IT AND WERES THE PROOF THAT THAT WAS A WEAPON. NUFF SAID BIATCH

  • Comment removed

  • Typical conspiracy bullshit that continues to come out of the cometators mouth like diarrhea

  • "ploughing a field"? yeah right

  • @Denamic so you would rathen that we had not dropped the atomic bomb on Japan in WW2? the fact is a land invasion would have cost 1,000,000 U.S. solders lives and 5,000,000 Japanes lives. (i'm sure you would be cool with that)

  • @ARK3399 dude japan was fucking dieing they had no gas no money they were bout to CALL QUITS YOU RETARD. THEY HAD NO MORE RESOURCES THEY ALREADY LOST DUMB PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT.

  • @upunkpunk whats your point? just because you put everything in caps does not mean you make sense.

  • That's sick.

    Hiroshima, Nagasaki and now this bullshit.

    And people wonder why the rest of the world hates america.

  • @Denamic what would happen if we didnt bomb hiroshima? INVASION OF JAPAN DUMB PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT
