Young men, overdosed on testosterone and patriotism playing "video games" with some of the most deadly weapons system ever created. We know that these people are murdering innocents with drone-fired missiles. How many non-combatant men, women and children died in the making of this vid?
Yes I can agree with that line of thought... however I can also agree with the thought of how many lives have these weapons systems saved in the way of close-air support to our troops on the ground, I have and have had friends and family over there I want to see as many of them come back to their families as possible... I understand that the insurgents have families too... I just happen to be on this side of things and wanted to show a video that can't be ignored. Half of you will turn it off and the other half can't look away
I really have to disagree here. In my opinion, callous as it may sound, if you sign up then you deserve to die in a sense. I know most of the soldiers are economic conscripts but the reality is hundreds of thousands of dark skinned people have died under these sickening attacks. You can't be having your cake and eating it. Either it is wrong to kill innocent people or it is not. If it is wrong then it follows that it is wrong to kill innocent people in retaliation too.
High explosive warfare is
evil. I hate that word but how can it be viewed otherwise. When you think about the vast disparity of wealth and resources around the world and then contrast that with the amount of dosh spent on these murderous weapons designed to murder these poor people...... Fuck the soldiers. Fuck them all.
