its quite funny really. Emp and someone else got stick for not getting the posts irony, but emp had used irony in his response, and we never got it!

The overall irony is actually really funny.

Your post was still valid vince (except the bashing), but you didnt really need to explain Vietn....er Iraq

thats made me laugh

Pink Floyd is definately a band worth listening to, I could listen to their cds for hours searching for political allusions, or just mellowing out. If you want a slightly more modern band that doesnt just sing about bullshit like most modern bands do, check out Bad Religion, or Pennywise, they're punk bands, but their music is more than just junk thrown into a processor.

I used a reference to Vietnam alot in my post. By saying, "Vietn....er Iraq" I was trying to show that the two situations are nearly identical. Therefore, it was easy for one to mistake one country for the other. It was another way to add to my argument.

"The four were driving along the main road when they were caught in a vicious crossfire from Iraqis wearing headscarves. The spot is a favourite site for attacks in the pro-Saddam Hussein town.

What followed was reminiscent of the conflict in Somalia in 1993 when dead American military personnel were hauled through the streets of the capital Mogadishu."

yea, ive seen a few of those

but, thats there own way of doing things in that country, we allow people to watch someone get pumped full of lethal drugs or shocked to death (hell, they used to use firing squads and nooses)

either way, its there form of "propaganda", designed to piss of americans at home (and lower morale), and to piss of soldiers to start doing stupid things in the name of revenge (kill innocent iraqi civilians, which then lowers morale at home)

Just watched the video and read the blurb, it's pretty horrific stuff. Kinda reminded me of severed heads on tower bridge as a warning to British traitors. I'm at a loss for words really, there is no way to condone or empathise with this barbaric display. I dissagree with Raptors description of propoganda, I believe this would have taken place with or without a film crew. There will no doubt be swift retribution in the minds of all US/UK troops over there who've seen this.
It's a sign of things to come. I can't see any improvement on the horizon.  I'm listening to the news now while Blair backtracks on his statement about vito over coalision troops being handed over with sovereignty, 'sovereignty' I might add is not the word I would use for placing a representative in power.
Where will these more and more frequent acts of violence and murder (on both sides) lead to ultimately? It upsets me deeply to see human life so thoroughly degraded.
Let's just hope metaphorical fingers stay away from metaphorical buttons.

QUOTE (Helios @ May 29 2004, 09:09 AM)
FUCK THOSE US and UK SOLDIERS!! I am sick and tired of seeing on the news that these innocent Iraqi's are 'accidently' killed by US Soldiers... I think that it is deliberate and when I heard that the 40 people were killed in a wedding of all things I knew that it couldnt be an accident... These soldiers seem cold hearted to me.... Killing 40 innocent people at a WEDDING is absolutley devastating.... How could that be an accident?? 40 innocent people killed.... and they say it was an acciedent? I dont think so...

Exactly. How long does it take to realize, 40 people were killed. 40. Were innocent human beings. Imagine 40 of your best friends, gone. For no fucking reason at all. Damn it, get it through your heads!

hydrobob, some people will never figure it out, because no matter what, iraqis, or anyone else for that matter, arent equal to "the might and power of the US"

yea, whatever, thats bullshit
