This world is doomed.

Please don't let these few clowns get to you. American soldiers are the most courageous, honest and moral in the world. I don't know anyone personally that doesn't feel that way, whether they believe that the US should stay in Iraq or not.

Well, the endisnear69, if solders didn't sign up, who would defend your sorry posterior if an enemy attacked?

Well, end69, I can. First of all, soldiers don't get to pick and choose which war they will fight in. When they are called, they obey. Imagine if every soldier decided which wars they would fight in. Then again, it is obvious that you don't know ANYTHING about discipline. You just spout out whatever you want, without ever thinking of the consequences.
Our soldiers are heroes, period. With about 150,000 soldiers in Iraq, helping to build schools, hospitals, and homes, they are a group of people I am proud of. So you have an example of PERHAPS one soldier that did something stupid and cruel, and you condemn the 150,000! I wonder if you ever did anything stupid or cruel in YOUR life(aside from condemning our brave soldiers)?
end69, you should be ashamed of yourself.

So, let me get this straight, even though there is a video stating that it's fake, you choose to believe it's real? Hmmmmm... funny how people use things to prove or disprove their own preconceived notions. Yet, I bet if it were a video claiming that a bigfoot or UFO was fake, you'd be all over it as proof that it was fake... Pretty much sums it up doesn't it? But since American are so "eeeevil," this video "must be real."
TRUTH HURTS

WRONG.
a soldiers job is to uphold the constitution...
fight all enemies, foreign, or domestic...
that is the oath right?
seeming that the constitution is based on a nation with christian values,
Im quite certain a soldier's job is to fight the enemy, and treat the rest the way they deserve to be treated, making an example.
A US soldier should be looked upon in a good light by anyone who looks at them. how do you do that?
fight the enemy, and treat the rest with respect...
abusing animals is simply a sick persona of a few people.
If you want to see all soldiers abusing life, then you should be looking at a foreign army, not ours.
A SOLDIERS JOB IS TO DESTROY, MAIM, KILL, INSULT, EMBARRASS, AND PILLAGE......nothing more.
