U.S Army Vehicle Destroyed in Iraq

....Apparently this happened between Tikrit & Mosul and was recorded by a Slovenian reporter embeded with the troops. Kinda hard to watch.... The vid is only useful up to the 3 minute mark....

Interesting, I didn't know that they had Slovenian reporters riding around with them.

It is hard to watch. These guys all know each other on a personal level to a point. They all see pix of each other's kids and wives back home, all of them waiting for the safe return of their loved ones. It is hard to see a friend die.

Very sad indeed that US soldiers should die in a flea bitten country that has no respect for human life.....But thats life & death over there.

US soldiers are dying because they were sent there by the Dumbass in Chief. Interesting that there are so many who "support the mission" (whatever the fuck that is) and then complain that they are dying in a "flea bitten country". On the one hand they cheer on the war to "liberate" Iraq and in the same sentence condemn the Arabs as sub-human. Well, which is it? If they are just animals why are we risking our guys' lives for a worthless land and "sub-human" people? Make up your fucking minds. What do you expect in a war? That no one is going to shoot back? Has anyone considered the possibility that the so called "insurgents" are pissed off Iraqi patriots fighting for THEIR country? I have no doubt that guerilla units also show each other the photos of THEIR wives and kids as well.

War works both ways. When you attack a country for no reason, don't bitch about casualties and don't be surprised if all you accomplish is stirring up a hornets nest of hatred. If there were foreign tanks and troops in my country I'd be throwing grenades and coconuts at them as well. If I saw families being shot to pieces in the family minivan the only thing on my mind would be revenge. We have to start minding our own fucking business. Who gives a fuck about fighting for Israel? A country with a population the size of Massachusetts is getting blow jobs from Bush and is leading us into WW III. Bring our guys home NOW, and screw what happens in that part of the world as a result.

it probably won't happen for twenty years, or more. At least not until new and easier oil fields are opened up.
