Kill every motherfucker on the street!?

Why are we over there?
linky :banghead:

a snip/
"McCord said to reporter Bill Van Auken:

"we had a pretty gung-ho commander, who decided that because we were getting hit by IEDs a lot, there would be a new battalion SOP .He goes, "If someone in your line gets hit with an IED, 360 rotational fire. You kill every motherf*cker on the street." Myself and Josh and a lot of other soldiers were just sitting there looking at each other like, "Are you kidding me? You want us to kill women and children on the street?" And you couldn't just disobey orders to shoot, because they could just make your life hell in Iraq. So like with myself, I would shoot up into the roof of a building instead of down on the ground toward civilians. But I've seen it many times, where people are just walking down the street and an IED goes off and the troops open fire and kill them.""

2. Another reason to BRING ALL THE TROOPS HOME NOW!

Nothing there could possibly be worth causing things like that order.

3. Time to bring the boys and girls home

from an un-winnable war

[Oregone]

4. For resources

So we can build more shit with them, which provides jobs that allow us to afford to buy more shit

5. And then everyone wonders why our guys are committing suicide so often

I couldn't live with myself after doing this kind of stuff either.

That's for sure.

6. I'm sure the military apologizers will be here soon to tell you

that you are wrong, no one ever really said that and that all the women and kids they indiscriminately kill had guns or bombs on them or would have had on them in the near future. :eyes:

7. Same old shit.
