Why do the troops kill so many innocent people in Iraq?

Question

Do they know right from wrong?

Answer 1

to the guy who spent 20 months in theater,how did you miss the 66,807 civis killed as a direct result of the U.S. war and occupation?and according to Iraqi Body count org. thats just the minimum.your pathetic,does it not seem strange to you that only U.S. military and their families believe that?thats alot more deaths than sept 11 huh?

Answer 2

My favorite innocent dead person was a Palestinian guy on a stretcher. He was being held high so all could see. The crowd was pushing and shoving AND bing the body falls to the ground. Normally this would be a problem, but no the DEAD guy jumps back onto the stretcher and assumes his pose.

Let's see if you can answer a Geneva Convention question.

You are on patrol and are fired on from a Church, Mosque or Hospital.
1. You leave the area.
2. You wait for the sniper to come out.
3. Return fire.
4. Call in an air strike.
5. Any combonation of the above.

A child is firing at you with an automatic weapon.

Select from the same answers above.

Answer 3

Killing innocent people in Iraq happens all the time. Are you saying that our troops are not innocent? How do you know that the 'innocent' people our troops kill are innocent? In war, you can never tell who is innocent or not. It is not something you can prevent.
All is fair in love and war.

Answer 4

It's goof like you that believe that kind of garbage. The deaths of "innocent" Iraqi's is due to the fact that the insurgents are sending so many suicide bombers into populated areas. People get killed and they get the effect they were looking for which is idiots like you that want to blame it on the soldiers.

Answer 5

It is AL QAEDA that are killing 'innocent' muslims going to mosques, markets and funerals.

They also pick up the weapons of the insurgents we kill. Works for them twice. Once in having more weapons. Once in inviting the film crews to see the "innocents." Then some communist Frenchman gets on here to say how terrible we are.

Move to France or Iran!

Answer 6

Oh man. You are so far out of wack. Do you really think that they are killing that many innocents. Aparrently you have never been in our military or know anything about them. Yes sometimes there are innocent people killed becase of honest mistakes. There are the few messed up people in the military who kill innocent people but it doesn't happen that often. Our country has spent a lot of our money and blood to liberate countries all over the world.

Answer 7

How could they all the Insurgents disguise themselves to look like every one else. Their own damn fault. So I will go another night with out shedding a tear for any of the Iraqis.

Answer 8

i spent 20 mos in iraq there are not as many innocent people as think and we do not try to kill them



to asafah i guessed they missed you maybe we will have better luck next time and as far as those #'s go when a person tries to kill an american soldier they get fired upon and when 1 soldiers sends rounds down range they all send them if your innocent dont assc with people who arent


and as far as 911 goes i believe if you kill 1 american we kill 1000 of yours

Answer 9

It is mostly the Iraqi terrorists that kill their own people.
True, those people wouldn't have been dead if we hadn't gone to war. But the fact of the matter is that we have.

This is war. Lives are lost. It's a sad fact.

Answer 10
