Wikileaks: US Drone shooting civillians

[Expertz]

A handful of the top people will be rich. You really don't know or you act blur

 

so what you are trying to say is that the US government waged war on iraq and invaded afganistan so that some random dude not related to the government will profit?

 

i cannot see how bush decided that they should go to war for oil and not take a single penny out of everything

Apache is a name given to an AH64 attack helicopter.

 

 

 

 

[Galantspeedz]

I say shoot or be shot.... What rules of engagement? It's a war not secondary school.... NBZ tok easy.... When your life is at stake see so easy to follow rules anot.....

 

My take, if I sense danger I shoot. That's it!

[Porche]

they always claim to help the civilians, help to them to depart from earth

[Fcw75]

Helicopter pilots were just trigger happy and itching to go. Soft skin van does not stand a chance against a tank killer. What RPG? The pilots saw what they wanted to see.

 

This reply is the best. If you listen to the audio, you will hear the pilot saying impatiently 'come on, let us shoot!'.

 

Yes, they are simply trigger happy and see what they want to see.

 

There are 2 children in the van and the yankees simply fire off.

 

:angry:

It's obvious that the pilot and gunner are trigger happy... what ROE is it ?

Stupid lah , normal van only not SAM or AA gun leh

You really wonder what kind of people they were recruiting for deployment in Iraq.

 

The van that came in was not a threat, they were just picking up the wounded. A few rounds nearby would have sent them scattering, they would have gotten the msg to get lost. Instead, they tore up the van.

 

They love this kind of easy pickings. Give them VN and they get their ass kicked.

from the video the US had an entire squadron deployed too, i might not have been to the army but it is common sense to assume that US will not deploy an entire squadron to go for a walkabout

 

also do you expect terrorists to constantly stand at attention when they are not fighting?

from the video it was a helicopter not an apache

 

There's simply no threat whatsoever...it's not justify to shoot....

 

They r civillians in their own town and these cowboys just hungry for actions so they make them look like a threat...

the whole area was considered hostile and their purpose of shooting was to kill not to scatter

are you a muslim?

from my standpoint, what they have there is a war and in a war you shoot 1st, if you hit civilians its part and parcel of war

regardless of the fact, the muslim terrorists have the say in ending the war

 

if they choose to continue deploying suicide bombers, the war will continue; else it will cease and the afgans will take over the police and army

 

so how can you point fingers at the US soldiers when they are just doing their job? why can't you blame the terrorists for continuing to persist in violence? an eye for an eye makes the world go blind, the more the terrorists persist, the more the US troops will hit back

 

however if the US troops backed down 1st, it means that terrorism wins

do you really want that to happen? if terrorism wins, it sends a clear message out to the world that it is possible for small pockets of terrorists to overthrow the strongest government in the world

 

do you know what impact that would have on singapore?

so think twice before you blame the US troops, i'm sure you would do the same in their situation

unless you are muslim and those on the ground are your brothers

[Dojon]

Maybe their ROE for there has been changed? Every country's ROE is the same meh ? From the blur blur video, they have enough evidence for them to be convinced that the people down on the ground poised a threat.

I disagree with wat you said, 1st those are civilians and reporters, 2nd their ROE was alrdy at fault. 3rd wat did iraq war involve in the muslim terrorists? Iraq situation is different from afganis.

 

[Fcw75]

It's obvious this so called 'Expertz' is not an expert, just someone who thinks he knows all. Doesn't even know Apache is a helicopter.

 

Boy ah boy, you are mixing up Iraq with Afghanistan. The 'world police' are simply there for the black gold, where's the WMD they claimed Iraq have?

 

It's time they stop meddling in other countries's affairs. They spent so much on military budget, no wonder their debt keeps getting bigger and bigger.

 

They should just pull their troops out of Iraq, nobody welcomes them there.

With so many wars involving US, no wonder so many ppl hate US. Innocent lifes kill by their bonkers soldiers,

even their own ppl hate their Gov for keep being Mr KPO... Time to stop being "Lau Da" & concentrate building back ur country instead!

The CB bush really dig a sibei deep s--t-hole, USD is soon going to be 1:1 with Sing dollar liao!

 

 

[Whatisthis04]

What being Muslim got to do in this topic?

They r civilians period! They dun deserved to die that way...

 

Those ppl dun carry a gun for god sake!

Don't waste your time on Expertz lah

[Fcw75]

Expertz should rename his avatar to America-lover. He is either an American or an ignorant person who believes that U.S. is a shiny white knight out to save the world.

 

Excuse the boy lah. He doesn't even know that Apache is a helicopter and he haven't even serve the army.

 

Talk is cheap. Excuse me...talk is FREE!
