Mistaken U.S. attack wounds Italian journalist

[scorpioboy33]

American troops fired on a car rushing Italian journalist Giuliana Sgrena to freedom on Friday after a month in captivity, killing the Italian intelligence officer who helped negotiate her release and wounding the reporter



God a couple of years ago Americian Pilots Murdered Canadian Soliders in Afganistan...now this....I wonder how man innoncents die at the hand of Moronic American Soliders...putz...
It kind of reminds me of when they fired upon an ambulance trying to return that american Solider Lady.
Than of course they had to STORM the hospital to "free" here....truly pathetic

[FORD]

Funny how many "mistaken" attacks there have been on journalists, isn't it?

[LoungeMachine]

If Junyor could figure out a way to get Helen Thomas near Baghdad he would.........

Notice The Shrub and Jeff Guckert similarities????

They both fuck troops on the side, when not at their day job bullshitting America

Ok, you are a soldier in Iraq, bombs going off anywhere and at any given moment, every damn day.
Suddenly a car comes rushing at your check point post and fails to yield to any motions to stop, what do you do?

Let the possible threat get to you, or defend yourself and fire on the vehicle?

My ass would open up on th vehicle and stop it in any way i could, you assholes who jumped on this bandwagon to ridicule the troops would end up dead when that vehicle blows up in your face.
You want to sit there in the safety of your homes and play back seat quarterback risking the troops lives like that?
Pick up a gun and try to do their jobs before you climb on them as though they were murdering scum.
It's not as if they knew who or what was in the damn car, and your comments disgust me, especially YOU, Ford.

Dude, don't ever submit another post that claims you support the troops. It is crystal clear who you support and the lengths you'll go to spread that garbage.

Those soldiers could be anyone, even Sarge, are you gonna call him a murderer of journalist?

It was unfortunate, that is true, but that car should have stopped for the check point so don't spin this into another Anti-Bush Hate Weapon.

It's pathetic.
I hope someday a soldier walks up to you and lays you flat out on your ass.

Spoken like a true christian.

The US army is poor because it's far too big and has to take on too many fuckwits to make up the numbers.

Unpleasant reading for you guys but I'm afraid that's true.

Cheers!

First of all please don't call yourself christian..your a right wing facist goof ball!

So you would open up no matter what Maybe why there are 100,000 civilians dead you jerk!

Since you're all knowing about the service...tell us your experience?

Sarge is in Iraq....bad choice...

As far as a solider flattening me....not likely loser

[LoungeMachine]

Here's a thought.........

COMMUNICATION


INTELLIGENCE



"hey, guys....that convoy about to come up on you is friendlys and a freed hostage......HOLD FIRE"



Isnt that how it's supposed to work?

The soldiers firing aren't to blame. THE PEOPLE IN CHARGE ARE

I didn't call myself a christian, Sesh called me a christian.
Reading comprehension is 99.9% effective.

And yes, If a car was barreling at me like crazy and i had spent months upon months watching my fellow soldiers get blown up, and the car refused to stop, I'd stop it before it got anywhere near a populated area.

My experience as a soldier? I was not permitted to join for health reasons, thyroid issues to be exact. But go ahead and show how adult you are by attacking me for not getting in, but i did try.
I come from a long family line of soldiers who have served in the Army, Navy, Air Force and the Marines, most of them never came home, and i would stand beside any of them because i am proud of my country and would sacrifice my life to protect another.

And dude, If you spew one bit of the garbage you spew here in the face of a soldier, you most certainly would get your ass beat, whether you think i'm a loser or not has no bearing on that issue.

Lounge, as usual, is the only one who offered anything of substance here, and i agree with him.
There should have been some communication as to what those guys at the check point were about to experience.

scorpiobaby, Your post attacked the troops, and you are a pathetic fool that has a problem with knee jerk reactions.
My points still stand, and for the record, My anger with this thread is directed at You and Ford, and i could care less what either of you think of me.

It was not the fault of the soldiers, they were doing what they felt they had to do given the info they had.
Which by the way is that when a car runs through a check point, people usually died when it blew up in their faces.

I see you standing there waving them through saying something stupid like "Come one through, rest stop 2 miles ahead, munitions building on the left".

Thank You, as i said before, substance can be expected from you, bro.

Someone dropped the ball, and people died because of it.
I am in agreement that the person should be identified and investigated to find out where things went terribly wrong.

BINGO!

Just one queston Catherdral...would you go fight any war? Like in Vietnam???Is it always America right or wrong...oh yah..and how do you feel about the 100k iraqies dead?

[Cathedral]

Bingo?
What does that mean?

Oh, so i'm responsible for getting a tumor on my thyroid gland?
You're a tool, and not too bright of one i might add.

But i apparently showed more guts than you by wanting to put on a uniform.

And to answer your "question's" (though you don't deserve my time).
If i were accepted into the military I would go where i was sent regardless of my persoanl feelings, because soldiers don't pick and choose how they are deployed, moron.

Again, right or wrong doesn't come into play, a soldier goes where they are sent.

Where are we now, One question that ended up being 4?
Learn to count ya twit.
But the last one is the most important one.

I don't condone the killing of anyone, for any reason.
But put me in a battlefield and i'll do what i have to do to survive and protect my brothers and sisters in arms.
Death is sad in any numbers, bro. and as i said, I don't condone it for any reason.
but again, How i feel about it won't keep it from happening on the streets of America or across the globe.

Now go run your water, it's bath time and the rubber ducky is calling for you.

Oh come on you knew you would not be picked....if you thought there was a chance in hell you would have not gone with in a mile of a recruitment office.

[Cathedral]
