for context

Yeah, interesting choices indeed.

That's interesting, I haven't heard anything about that.

Agreed

There where RPG's and AKs clearly visible in the footage. AK's are common, but the only people who would carry RPG's in that place at that time where those who intended to use it on US and coalition forces.

Dude, I was in the Army. It was my job to be able to identify them in that kind of footage. I could clearly Identify them in that footage.

A camera looks much different then an RPG

As far as civilian casualties are concerned, yeah that shit sucks. Its also very common when the enemy integrates themselves within the civilian populace.

Owe, so it didn't come from manning now? interesting lol

Then you weren't looking

Im pretty sure we where talking about manning before you went on you little tangent. Red Herring much?

Yeah. So was I lol

Agreed Aeolin

He also lied about those crimes. At least the video anyway. So there is that.

Kirby, have you ever heard of something called "rules of engagement?" You should look up some examples used during the war.

Look up Steven Dale Green. Turns out the military actually frowns on killing civilians.
