Watch this ALONE, far away from any small children.

play the LONG VERSION and watch all of it. Force yourself if you have
to.

The "RPG" is a TV camera under the body of a Reuters cameraman.

Watch us kill the Reuters staff....and some kids in a van trying to save
a wounded innocent man crawling on his belly blown half apart UNARMED.

Watch us blow an innocent Iraqi man walking down this street to bits as
we drive a Hellfire missile into the building behind him. His crime was
walking down the street and being an Iraqi.

What the **** is wrong with us?! This isn't war. This is genocide!

This video is from 5 April 2010, 2 days ago. The military has "lost"
this video, conveniently, but wikileaks has it.


Between 13 and 15 February 1945, In four raids, 1,300 heavy bombers
dropped more than 3,900 tons of high-explosive bombs and incendiary
devices on Dresden, capital of the German state of Saxony. The
resulting firestorm destroyed 39 square kilometers (15 sq mi) of the
city center.

The number of deaths that resulted from the raids has been estimated
as high as 250,000 however today's historians estimate a death toll
between 24,000 and 40,000, nearly all of whom were non-combatants.

The raids were conducted by the British Royal Air Force (RAF) and the
United States Army Air Force (USAAF) as part of the allied forces.

So in reality the young kids are whacking half a dozen, maybe 10, at a
time. Your daddy was getting whole cities.

And Larry, one hears rumors that you were in the Navy and from your
mention of recently receiving SS pay it sounds as though you served
during "the cold war" when the US Navy was nuclear capable so you
happily served in a force that was not only ready to take out a city,
but get the whole county too.

In more recent times the USS New Jersey, during their Vietnam tour
fired some 5,688 rounds of 16 inch shells, and 14,891 five inch
shells. As an aid to visualization, each 16 inch shell weighs 2,700
lbs., and has a range of some 25 miles.

I wonder whether the Navy could tell the civilians from the combatants
25 miles away?
