I see, so now everyone clams up and doesn't know what ya mean.  Before everyone was full of opinion and conjecture regarding this video, these plots and the US in general. now they have no idea what you are talking about when you call them out on it.

It is now to the point where ruisleipa shows up seeking to dissect each post into single words then seek to argue the definition of each of those words. Just watch

I never said anything in any of my posts about the RoE. I don't know what they are. But I DO know that, in the normal world, it's considered wrong to blow up children and civilians, which is what happened here. Now, you might consider it OK because there were some guys with guns there as well, and certainly the official report makes interesting reading, although it's hardly unbiased is it, but I consider the actions of the pilots morally wrong, not only but partly because of their bloodthirsty attitude and gloating over the dead bodies, as well as their shooting of a van obviously coming to provide medical care to those wounded in their initial attack, and the uncertified nature of those accused of being enemy combatants.

Oh you mean like the pattern of certain members in relation to their posts regarding Obama? Yeah, we know about that. I think Varegg thought you meant him personally and in this thread especially, which would've been and was a bit confusing since his opinion is quite close to yours.

There's no-one here as far as I know who can't think of ANYTHING positive to say about the US. You, on the other hand, are incapable of admitting there IS anything wrong with the US or anything they do, unless it's criticising your duly elected president...weird huh?

Yes I see a pattern but I also see that most members are able to differentiate between each individual issue up for discussion and that again means that most of us are not hating the US by default like you seem to think ... in fact I'd like to claim that very few of us actually hate the US at all ... I know I don't hate the US ...

So when you "oh christ" something I wrote I would very much like to know what you mean by that in that particular setting ...

It has all been covered before, and you choose to ignore what has been said. Instead you stick to points that have long been explained.
If there is any bias it is from those of you that choose to ignore the facts of the OP. and the facts within KM's article.


Sad and bitter? Appreciate your concern, I will be ok in the up coming elections and even better in 2012.

well I must have missed those points where anyone 'covered' my concerns. I'm not ignoring any facts, in fact the facts themselves are what gives rise to the concern. I also read the official report, and like I said it was interesting, but you have to take it as an obviously biased report which just presents the situation in a different light and offers no absolute conclusions for anyone with a vaguely independent mind.

Whether the RoE were met is only part of the issue, and if they were, then that doesn't mean nothing wrong happened.

I don't think it's justifiable shooting people aiding the wounded, and especially not if there're children around. You obviously do.

Nuff said really.

Thats not the point, its the military investigating themselves, they didn't find anything at Haditha either - the first time at least, or My Lai.

might want to go back and read what KM posted.. Noting such things as, the OP only hightlighting the journalists, not the insurgents carrying weapons. The lack of knowledge about the children being there, and the quation raised as to why anyone would bring children into a danger zone such as that of the OP.

anyway, go back and read what KM posted. very enlightening. because yes, you must have missed those points or are ignoring them.

The point is organisations shouldn't investigate themselves since it almost inevitably leads to a cover up.
Applies to Police, Politicians, Catholics etc etc.

I watched the OP and I read KMs post. I said my opinion about both. I'm not ignoring anything.

Again, you're the one who has some kind of moral block, not me.

Thats why it was good to read the official report and watch the video and make up my own mind about it. Would you REALLY trust an official government report?

Lol well nice to see your own conclusions do not fall on the side of fact a reason. If it did, you would not be able to dismiss the points made in KM post, of which you have never lended a word other than "interesting"

already explained what bearing I feel the RoE have on the morality of this situation. The report is interesting, and not much more. I suppose you find it definitive?

I find the video of insurgents with RPG's and Ak-47s definitive. I call the fact the soliders correctly identified them and asked for permission to fire definitive. I call the fact that the soldiers had no idea (or way to know) that there was little kids in the unmarked car definitive. I also call your lack of acknowledgement of these facts definiitve.

It's so ridiculous how the WIkileaks video blows up the shot of the kids in the car at the end. They could have been melons for all we could see. Talk about biased reporting...
