Has anyone ever seen a picture or video of a U.S. or U.K. soldier?

Question

firing on an unarmed civilians?

Or do you pick through the rubble and call anyone not wearing a uniform a civilian?

Are we supposed to watch a tv show, and automatically say it is what is happening in iraq?

thanks for clearing up

Answer 1

Ever watched the TV series "Over There", or the movie "Rules of Engagement"? I think both of those pretty much cover what happens when soldiers kill "civilians."

And yes, they probably do pick through the rubble and call everyone not wearing a uniform a civilian.

I'll put it this way: My friends who have been to Iraq say that "Over There" and "Rules of Engagement" are very close to the truth.
"Civilians" are shot because:
A. They really are armed, but the insurgents cover it up.
B. They walk out in the middle of gunfights (in some cases photos are even staged of a "civilian" being shot to death as a result.)
C. They appear threatening...for example, if they're told to "halt" in Arabic, and they keep moving. They are then assessed as a threat.

Sorry you misunderstood me.

Answer 2

They don't even have to pick through the rubble. A lot of these so-called photojournalists have been caught red-handed doctoring their photographs to make the USA look bad.

Answer 3

Seen Video of an Ambrams rolling over a civ vehicle (for no apprent reason) while the owner of that vehicle was forced to watch, in the early arrogent days of the failed operation.

Boy has our leadership failed our country.

Answer 4

It's always good to hear from you brave souls on the front line in Iraq.

Answer 5

Depends which politician you are asking. And even if politicians from different stripes give different answers BOTH could be lying.

Answer 6

No
