F-16 in Fallujah

Marines were trapped in one of the buildings that the insurgents were going to engage. A F16 was nearby and called in for air suppport. The Marines were spared.

the things you'll see in Iraq

Haha! The best part is when they talk about doing the flyover

Not recommended for the work environment, but then again, it's not the best video to make out things.

Did you even fucking watch the last one which was the only one I joked about?

I bet no because in that last one NO ONE was hurt.

But I suppose in the first one that you would have been alright with the Marines dying? The people killed in the first two videos were attacking.

The third video is of a couple in a car.

Jesus Fucking Christ. People die. Get over it

"And then Mummy the American helicopter flew over and it was soo exciting, just like in a film..."

Is this a quote from just after 9-11?

No I didn't think so.

I got over the loss of life. The attack I will never.

Sorry I'm just getting sick of the macho posturing I see everywhere.

The wows as the big munitions go off in civilian areas in an illegal war where we were all fucking duped.

The media is censoring the fuck out of it. It's amazing how hard you need to dig to find anything.

Don't believe me?

Do a google image search of "civilian casualties iraq", 4 FUCKING PAGES in the whole internet most of which are diagrams.

Do a google image search of "us troops iraq" 2800 HITS!

Cheers!

Do a yahoo image search of 'civilian casualties iraq'. You get ten pages which are mostly of civilian casualties in iraq.

[Seshmeister]

Thanks for the tip.

Either way I'm not seeing civilian casualties on the news each night which is strange because all the humanitarian organisations are saying there are a hell of a lot of them...

Maybe one of the news organisations should embed a reporter in a nursery in Fallujah.

[Ally_Kat]

maybe they can't get to it because of both sides involved with the fighting?

That Apache video is pretty hairy...

[Big Train]

Can I just say this is an impressive pissing contest between sesh and Ally...blaze on..

Seshmeister has a point. While I am interested in this stuff, the one-sided view of this war skews the true impact of the conflict on our troops, their enemies, and the Iraqi people. I too get a little nauseated by the mindless macho posturing that some show in reaction to these videos. I can also show you a site where they show knocked out M1A1 tanks, M2 Bradley AFV's, suicide attacks on American convoys, and disturbing images of dead American soldiers surrounded by Iraqi insurgents. Does it mean the war is going well for the Iraqi guerillas, I don't know, but click on the link below if you wish to see for yourself. As in the first gulf war, selective censorship can be used to spin both successes and failures.
