And what did you think our forces were doing over in Iraq?.(Shock video does'nt work)

This is not a game it is real!

It is time that those of you who have time to burn blabbering about this matter enlist and help protect your country's best interest, right wrong or indifferent!

I have 2 younger brothers who are, and have served in Iraq, U.S. Marines.

I do not agree or disagree with this war but I have a vested interest being a brother in Iraq.

I just want to see all of our troops home safe.

I'm praying for them daily.

Rick

So what did we learn today?

If you see your buddy get mowed down by a helocopter, DON'T GET IN YOUR TRUCK!

(Actually, it seemed that if you hide inside of your truck they might just leave you alone...)

Not trying to start anything, but would you mind expanding on this comment.

I understand where you're coming from, not sure if I agree with your statement though.

If I took it the wrong way, my apologies.

Everyone in the armed forces takes an oath to protect this country no matter the reason, no matter the task, no matter the consequences.

I'm a little bit confused about your rant also... All he did was link a video...
Bet there are a few guys on this site who have spent some time in the sandbox.

I just find it offensive that someone is making $$$ off of this and you guys who were there or are there don't reap anything but the wrath of the press.

When I first read your comment I thought you were directing it to the members of this board. I'm glad I asked you to clarify.

Yes, I'm the last red guy in this blue state!

Sorry, but I'm trying to be as P.C. as possible without offending anyone.

Nobody made money off of this video, as a matter of fact I was on a military web site somewhere months back that referred to this video and one of the Officers on this mission was decommisioned for releasing it with out proper authority. He was given an unofficial copy for himself and shared it with to many people.

The lesson is; If you feel the need to attack the US again we will be more than happy to come over and help you meet ala.

His hiding might have worked if he hadn't poked his head out. Iraqi troops really had no idea what they were up against. The things we think of as everyday weaponry is only science fiction to them. During Desert Storm They popped smoke before there tanks moved in to attack, the results were that they were the only ones blinded and they couldn't figure out how we could still see' em.

No problem, I originally thought you were telling people on this site to stop blabbering and enlist.
