"Other nations waging battle with terrorism are encouraged to support their troops, too."

What about nations dealing with an uninvited occupation army?

Kind of stupid to think you can stop "terrorism" or "terrorists" by blowing the shit out of people who had nothing to do with it in the first place.

eh...don't know if this is the right video to get into that, rougy. There's plenty of other videos waiting for dissenting points of view.

If you think you can wage war with terrorism then you've already lost.

The Kurds would beg to differ.

"The Kurds would beg to differ."

Oh, would they? Care to explain that a little?

Did the gunner almost get his leg crushed from the firing?
Looks like it came real close there...

You know what, you're right. It does look like (the number 1 man) did get hit.

^ actually, that was what i was watching, the very first time. not the dufus sitting.

from the first frame, you can tell he's too close, and that in going to parade rest, he puts his left leg right in the path.
he realizes it, just as it's going off, and instead of moving only to his right, he takes an awkward turn-step forward-ish as well. and he limps, for a moment, and does his best to shake it off at once.

that he was facing the correct direction at that moment, allowing his knee to bend with it, is the only reason that didn't get really ugly, really fast.

ps. just as an aside, ^garsh is largely correct, there.
if there's one region of iraq that'll love us to the end, it's kurdistan.

because they were what we were protecting,
with our northern no-fly-zone, since the end of Kuwait/Iraq1.

that's where mysterywalker goes shopping for pistachios and t-shirts now.
