Use of Napalm & Chemical weapons in Iraq

[NikovK]

Could we get a source to work off that is NOT riddled with porn? Say, something with a shred of credibility?

[Beckwith]

what the hell are they supposed to do its obvious the insurgents dont want to come out to an open field line up and fight a gentlemans battle blow for blow, its frustrating never knowing friend from foe, if this is the worst thing that happens thats not bad

jumping slightly off topic
i hate the people that are getting up set by the treatment of prisoners, if muslims are offended by being forced to strip nude i really dont care, i just want to say to all those people i find car bombs offensive and against my religion

hahaha

This probably belongs in "Battlefield : Reality" and preferably after an expert verifies if these are flares. Please keep this civil.

yea POE have a strict rule against political or controvercial threads, there are times when i wish we had a similar policy

Would be nice, wouldn't it?
By the way NikovK, the fact that it's on the website doesn't mean they created it

There was another thread about this, I just saw it after creating this one, although instead of a link to that vid, it was to a report & responsive statement. Where the hell has the thread gone?

The US is a rich country, a 1st World, a Super Power - who have apparently gone in to liberate the people of the country, good, but they should definately not be going in thinking "But an enemy not fighting the way it is supposed doesn't deserve better."

If you want to build a "civilised" country, I don't believe that pissing it's people off like this is really the best way of going around it.

Sure, having Germany in my location automaticly makes me a n*zi. I would think before i post, maybe that guy comes from another country? My home country was freed from the japs by america at the cost of thousands of soldiers lives, and therefor i'm thankful even if i was not one of the generation that was freed. I don't care how the got beaten by the americans, they are still as hated in our region as the germans are in europe. And as ia can see some ppl are still full of prejudice against some volks.


Sometimes it requires some measures to achieve a goal. But i don't think the US intended to piss off ppl with their presence. Their target is not the civilians, but in most cases some cowards disguise themselves as civilians and accidents happen ( Beckwith already mentioned those brave fighters hiding behind women and children avoiding a direct fight against US troops). Those ppl are also full of prejudice ( USA is the devil etc.. ) Of course they will always mistrust western ppl. And there is nothing you can do against it. They are already pissed of when they see us ( < NOT U.S!!) infidels running around in their country.

What the HELL are you on about? "I can see where you're coming from" is an expression, meaning "I can understand your point of view" - "I understand what you are saying" - "Yes, that is true, however". It has nothing to do with geographical positioning, and I was not calling you a Nazi.

Ummm, my history is pretty hazy but i never remember Germany being under the Japanese control?! and how can you compare WWII to the Iraq war?! Hitler had an established country with a comparatively good economy, was a threat and quite frankly was a complete nutter. Sadam never had any WMD's (as we have all found out) and even if he did i really see him being able to bomb the west from there... anyway, Sadam hurt his own, not others uuuuuunlike Hitler, so don't compare. Oh and I'm from Europe and you can rest assured we don't hate you
Don't fill a post with prejudice then complain about others being prejudice

Then you should try to pronounce it another way.

Enforcer... Those stories you hear about people hiding behind children and women... it's propaganda, like the stuff they have about "USA is the Devil" and "infidels", you don't truly believe it... ever tried to hold a child/woman and shoot a gun? not the best tactic
