You are right. There was nothing of concern in that video.
My criticism isn't of our soldiers. It is of the people who train them, and who give them orders. I am VERY fond of those who serve my beloved nation (especially the Marines). But I am not very fond of those who use our soldiers as collateral.
This is war.......

And think me evil or not, but I agree with the voice on the tape- they SHOULD know better than to bring kids into a shooting spree!! What kind of parent does that? "Oh, these men just got shot, let's pack up the kids and go see what it looks like"...
And yes, it IS kill or be killed there- I have no issue with these soldiers actions.

Yeah, silly them, bringing their children who live in this town with them on a shooting spree.
A photo shooting spree.

Well, one thing we can do to make sure this mess is one day resolved is to not twist the facts as you've blatantly done here. There is never a single shred of anything in the video that points to the children having any relation to the news team. Their parents, for whatever reason, wrong or right, put their children in a situation where multiple people were being liquidated by an Apache war machine. Again, people with no interest in uncovering the truth because they can't see past their own stupid political agendas are doing nothing to help figure this situation out.
And you're glad for the "hype"? So you would use the death of the children as a means to an end for your own personal convictions? The hypocrisy in this thread is unbelievably overwhelming. Good day ladies and gentlemen.
