    I'm just amazeed none of you have seen it before - it's been around for ..a while; and I think it was used at the start of The Jacket .. (maybe not so amazed:p)

    **** me......that's unbelievable. The poor fellow trying to crawl away at the end, obviously wounded :(

    How? There is a field gun in that video which would mean they were obviously soldiers. Surely destroying their gun and veichles would be enough. No need to kill wounded.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 556 ✭✭✭JimmySmith


    I thought they were wearing hoodies, so therefore they had to die.

    Off-putting in the sense that they fired on wounded, they blew up the second truck to kill the wounded guy, a bit disturbing if you ask me.

    And yes, im ringing Aer Lingus right now to cancel my tickets ;)

    "Army officials acknowledged that the 30 mm cannons used by the Apache gunners were far bigger than what was needed to kill the men, but said it is the smallest weapon the Apaches have."

    So,uh,no.Not in direct combat.

    Horrible, watching people get killed and thinking "hey, it's like a game" - enemy soldiers or not.
    Those helicopters are effing scary! I think the Afgans use to say "We are not afraid of the Russians, but we are afraid of their helicopters"...

    Have you seen the video of the Russian 'copter that some Afghans shot down? It's pretty disturbing as well.

    You can view it here.

    Mad stuff that is. I think he was happy with that shot. Was anyone killed do you know? It loked to me like the helicopter might have been able to crash land. It looked like it was still semi manouverable.

    In fairness, after being wounded by that sort of a weapon, your not going to survive anyway. So they could leave him die or kill him there and then. If I was the wounded one I know I'd want them to finish me.

    What a shot!
    Allo ackburn!
    or whatever it was they shouted afterwards...

    in the original video, does anyone else think it looks like the second guy is trying to surrender by waving some sort of white flag? i've watched it a few times and it seems possible. Christ though, the pilots are so emotionless, i mean ffs they are killing people just like that...

    Edit: Dammit, Spaced Out got there before me. I agree with him. Scary.

    It's their job and they're trained well to do it.

    That's military training for ya.
    All trained to see their targets not as humans... just targets.
    Spooky stuff though.
    Although those troops they shot would probably have killed them in a second if they could... so no tears there anyway I'm sure.
    War sucks, but that's the reality of it right there in that video. :(

    They aren't killing people. They are shooting something on a tv screen.

    That video can be anything from farmers to actual soldiers.

    If they were soldiers then I have no pity.

    If the were farmers then it's a terrible accident BUT that does look like a field gun on the left and I can see where a mistake could have been made.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 288 ✭✭patzer117


    They aren't killing people.

    Eh? They kind of are. In every sense of the word. Do you not classify soldiers as people? And my point was that they are not thinking about it twice. They were in no danger and they killed them without any hesitation.

    Seriously, how aren't they killing people?

    No, your reading it incorrectly, the soldiers are only aiming at targerts on a screen hence they aren't killing a person.
