BERLIN, Germany (AP) -- A video showing a German army instructor telling one of his soldiers to envision African-Americans in the Bronx while firing his machine gun was broadcast Saturday on national television.
The video, coming after scandals involving photos of German soldiers posing with skulls in Afghanistan and the abuse of recruits by instructors, seemed likely to raise more questions about training practices in Germany's conscript army.
"We can no longer talk about an isolated case," said Lt. Juergen Rose of the Darmstaedter Signal, a group of current and former army officers and sergeants who independently review military procedures.

I dont see what is so wrong about this ?? Its just as Black people putting up Nazi's .......
Black people in the bronx are quite intimidating, they represent gangsters and the criminal element in society. These German recruits are mostly more pacifist in their real lives and to bring out the fear and aggression in them, such mental imagery is required to boost to their confidence and overcome fear......

The Black community should take it as a compliment that these people consider then 'dangerous' enough to ask their soldiers to picture them as the enemy.

Why are foreigners sooo influenced by "black oriented gang culture?" Do they have a problem thinking for themselves? Besides, I thought people worldwide hate black Americans, and black people in general?
That there is pretty bogus. You're in Australia, so there's probably many people that believe this in other countries. Blame the black man...just saying it as it is.
