[shahe]

I saw the video today thru classified channels. I am very pissed off, about this too. But they are playing tit for tat their. Instead of trying to rebuild their country into a better place they would rather live in chaos like animals.

Kinda wondering what will be coming out prison camp bullshit.

Agreed.

We say we're fighting on behalf of the civilized world. To achieve a decent and respectful society.

And then we do things like this? This is how we demonstrate our civility?

Tit for tat - we can do that just fine, but it doesn't need to be in the news. I don't need to hear a suffering man's death screams while I'm sitting in traffic on the way to work. Or any time.

Damn straight.

yea ive seen the video...its very disturbing.

The single most horrifying thing I have ever seen in my life. I wish I had never watched it, those images will be burned into my mind forever.

The front page of the paper here was a photo of the man's father and his brother collapsing to the ground crying in each other's arms. It honestly made me cry to see it. I cannot even imagine the pain and sorrow the family is being forced to endure right now.

Sometimes, I'm ashamed to be human.

Here's a working link for the vids... remember folks.. it's nasty.. not for weak heart..! You've been warned!

Get this shit off of this thread. Have you no decency?

You have obviously missed the point.

The point in simple words is that just because you have the ability or right to do something, you should not necessarily take advantage of it. Sometimes you need to exercise some judgement and NOT do what you have the ability or right to do, to preserve a level of ethical decency and morality.

And this is the reason as a Parent I censor just about everything my kids listen to and watch.

There is no possible way describing what happened there could come close to conveying the horror of what those butchers did to a civilian who was there to help the Iraqi people.

Remember the 4 civilians dragged through the streets? 1 of them was my good friends uncle, he grew up about 1/2 hour from here. Americans trying to help and just get targetted... sad.

Americans trying to help and just get targetted... sad.

The saddest thing of all is that we try and convince ourselves that we're any different. There is nothing inherantly different between Iraqis and Americans; humans are humans. We're all capable of horrible things...

Kinda reminds me of Somilia. Another shit hole that the world just said fuck it.

Oh and here is my Clinton bash line........ he could be droped off in Baghdad and most GI's would care less. This whole Iraq deal should have been solved 12 years ago.

Notice Ms. Hilary has been mighty quiet.

And Rwanda, The Congo, Sudan... the list goes on...

I don't think this thread needs to exist anymore...

This is stupid.

Re: Horrific Misuse Of The Right To Free Speech - On The Rad

Tangent, Sean:
Media is the plural of medium. Using it incorrectly makes people question your intelligence.

Per American Heritage Dictionary:
media (used with a sing. or pl. verb) The group of journalists and others who constitute the communications industry and profession.

Thank you, please drive through.

I wanted to see the video, I think that if someone in my family had been murdered like that I'd make sure that everybody knew it and how horrible it was. It's your choice to listen to the radio station or to watch the video on the net, you are bringing it to yourself although there has been ample warning, so quit whining. I also don't agree with 90% of the general public that this is 100% bush's fault, he was just dealt a shitty hand
