well, looks like we got a couple of those scumbags http://today.reuters.com/news/artic...NFLICT.xml&WTmodLoc=Home-C2-TopNews-newsOne-4 they used an ac-130 in the attack... thats impressive. <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5cPAv5RWhvE"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5cPAv5RWhvE" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
That wasn't the video from the attack yesterday, but cool none the less. Great footage. http://arabnews.com/services/print/print.asp?artid=90779&d=10&m=1&y=2007&hl=US Planes Bomb Somalia
yeah i forgot to mention that, i think i read it was a mission from afghanistan... those ac-130 can fire off several thousands of rounds per second... and the infrared sensors on that thing are simply amazing.
I don't mean to be a total ass but I think people should reflect some more on video before calling it 'cool'. This is not a video game. These are real people with real blood that comes squirting out a real color of red. If you walked around those buildings up close and personal after it was through, I think a good percentage of people would probably be disgusted to the point of nausea with severed limbs, crushed in faces, split open bowels mingling blood, s**t, and intestines in a puddle, etc., etc. Yes they are most likely 'the enemy', and the video does show the exceptional capabilities of the AC-130, but watching death and describing it as cool strikes me as fundamentally not good for you. Again, I don't mean to be the big downer here but even if they deserved to die 1000x over, I don't think it should be anything to high-five your buddies about even though I understand and appreciate the impulse to do so.
yup its cool seeing africa or the middle east being bombed.. but not the west like europe or america..
Cause we are harvesting so many known terrorists. There are crazy freaks here in the US too, but last I checked they weren't rolling around freely after blowing up embassies etc....
yup they are absolutely all terrorists.. and again who cares if they're not.. from the article you posted
more than likely the people that are killed in that video are FUBAR. i doubt there are many limbs laying around. guilty by association. war is war cause its bloody and its hell. if it was easy we could just sit the 2 sides down, let them play chess and the winner gets the spoils. these "innocents" should have considered their company a little better.
got Many Militias and plus the Tim McVey Crowd I think we are far to cavilier about the death and destruction of humans but then again . . it is a Video Game Mentality It is easy to kill someone .. you never met. . never even seen and will never have to talk to this kin it is as easy as pushing a button . . . when it is that easy and that anonymous. . where they will never know YOU were the one that killed their kin It is easy to kill someone .. . but Up close and person where you have to look them in the eye as they pass to the hereafter. .well . .we cry and claim that is so 'barbaric' Death is Death Killing is Killling Until you ready to take the knife and plunge it into someone's heart and twist. . . i think the Coolness of things like this rings a bit hollow Rocket RIver
I am not calling you stupid, but that is one of the stupidest things I have ever seen. How do you know the innocents chose their company? When you are in public you don't get to choose who else is in public with you. When you are in a car on the road, you don't get to choose who is in the car next to you. When you are in a store you don't get to choose who else is in that store with you. And even if somehow everyone that died chose to be around the targets, being near someone even by choice doesn't = deserves to die. It may have been a known risk, but that still doesn't make it alright. It is just so incredibly stupid to believe that everyone there chose to be around known terrorists.
I think you and Osama / Zarqawi would get along just swell...you see things the same way, he doesn't care about 'your' innocents and you don't care about 'their' innocents.
It is true that rodrick_98 does use the same kind of thinking as Osama regarding the killing of others. Sad, indeed.
