Some of the many, many, many innocent victims, "terrorist," being
slaughtered on a daily basis, the only reason this one is so big (over 3,000,000
views within a week) is because it has journalist in it and their company was
looking for some proof as far as what really happened. His camera was a
"weapon." The video came from WikiLeaks.

I'm sure there are many such stories. From the camera view his camera looks a
lot like it could be a weapon and there were others there with weapons or what
looked a lot like weapons from the look of it. What it doesn't look like is
these guys just picked out some people and decided to kill 'em.
War's a bitch and people die, sometimes even people that really shouldn't have
lost their lives, just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time

If there is any blame for civilian deaths then it would have to be on the
insurgents heads for moving among unarmed civilians to try and use them as
shields. There will always be wars in this world because there will always be
people who want what others have and don't care who they kill to get it. At
least we do our best to limit collateral deaths of innocent civilians the
terrorists or insurgents or whatever you want to call them do nothing to limit
innocent civilian deaths. Just the opposite, they intentionally cause innocent
deaths in an effort to sway public oppinion and you are falling for it and
playing right into their hands.

Any of you who think this is "normal" ever been in a real war?
And lost close friends or relatives to it?
Be honest for once, instead of just "kewl"...

War is hell. If you aint there to fight, dont be there. Cameramen should not be
walking around a warzone. no one to blame but themselves. its unfortunate surely
but thats what you get when you play with the big boys. Sorry.

The sad thing is two children were injured because the adults brought them in
the van. WHAT were you thinking?! Bringing innocent children into that
situation. I watched the whole 38:04min and about 1:38min into the clip the
crosshairs are on two guys, one with an AK-47 and the other with an RPG. NOT a
tripod or large/long camera like the two reporters had who weren't wearing
anything to show they were reporters. Let's also add they were near an area
where american forces were receiving small arms fire. Hence a call to the attack
helicopters for air support. Then the mack daddy stupid thing to do, they made
an offensive/military style look around the corner of the building. You'll
notice the pilot gets a little more aggressive with his request for permission
to fire. Watch the whole thing and you'll understand the situation a little
more. Oh I almost forgot, it happened in 2007 when we were getting our asses
kicked on a daily basis. So maybe our troops were a little nervous about guys
with guns and RPG's. Another media skewed view of an intense situation.

I can guarantee that if you saw this scenario start to finish from the eyes of
the cat in the helicopter, who knew an RPG could mean almost a sure death to
himself and his crew if launched on 'em, it would give anyone a much different
perspective of what was prudent.
And ... if you were to watch the same video without the details and the
emotionally charged statements that accompany the video, you'd likely have a
different idea about what was goin on too

Duh, that was the reporter with the camera dumbass, it's not a cool little neon
digital camera, it is a professional one with a huge telephoto lens.
You can't tell me with all of the technology out there that those Apache
soldiers can't zoom in when looking at supposed enemies.
Here guys, Obama is on your side, killing American citizens on site no matter
what is just fine.... Bush didn't even say it was ok to do this.

I have lost many friends to Vietnam war and also several on the 100th floor of
the World Trade Center tower 1. I was in the Navy during the early 70's and
supported Vietnam war. The only way we will be able to rid the world of war
would be to eradicate all human life from the planet. There will always be
countries who start wars for any number of reasons and there are also groups of
people who will kill other people for their God without regard for their own
life. some countries can be dealt with diplomatically but the groups who kill
for God can only be dealt with by killing them. Soon we will also have to deal
with gangs in this country the same way by killing them because they are not
afraid of the police or afraid of going to jail. You may as well get used to it
because death is the only way to deal with some people.

jgroin + others, same old spoon fed propaganda, what in the hell does the US

If you actually fall for their doing good bullshit that's your problem, but you

I'm sure you know that ZBig is an Obama string holder... I've mentioned ZBig
long ago, way before anyone ever knew Obama was even going to run, but you guys
blew it off and talked shit, now he is practically in 'Office' himself.
