Thank you so much for your reports.

and then there are still some Americans who wonder why the world hates America. There are these soldiers who have lost their humanity killing innocent people. Where is the military justice system in all of this? This is only going to create a bigger problem if it's not dealt with.

@MCTravass23 you think American soldiers are the only ones that do this? The shit talked about in this video has happened in literally every war since history began being recorded. Wake the fuck up, its not all slow motion heroic scenes and good ol boys protecting mom and pop back home. People get shot, blown, and cut up. A lot. Plenty of them are just civilians, its part of the game.

Heres one for you, if you don't like the shit hat goes along with war - dont start fucking wars. These soldiers were told they were headed to front lines to actively seek combat and ended up being sent to a more "support" oriented role. You can not constantly pump these guys up for full on combat throughout all their training then expect them to be peacful. They were deliberatly geared up to kill, then had that taken out of the picture; this is what happens.

@fabianfruehstueck I AM A REDNECK, BUT I KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON AND I CARE ABOUT IT. MOST PEOPLE THE WORLD OVER ARE STUPID AND MISGUIDED. IT IS THE HUMAN CONDITION AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN.

no telling what war does to some but the thing is Obama got Ben Laden now he needs to fulfill the other part of his campaign promise and get the hell out of the middle east and not put our military in such a position. When you are fighting against someone that is willing to blow him/herself up and take just one infidel you are dealing with quite different bunch of idiots so lets just get out in all middle east countries.
