They where doing their jobs, and innocents got in the way but most of those that where injured or killed prolly did something to get shot or posed a threat. You have no idea what the trash is what Iraqis will do to bodies, hide guns or even shoot their own family members and blame it on Troops, or contractors. Anyone sides me remember Nickolas Burge the contractor that got his head chopped off by these scum who was working to better THEIR country?

Let's assume all that is true. It still doesn't justify their being completely unaccountable. Or are you saying that there's no need, since the civilians "prolly" did something to cause it?

No, an entire country of people are evil. They were just born that way. And the above statement is totally NOT racist.

But . . . we're trying to help them by giving them a form of government they're too stupid to even realize they want. How can that possibly that racist?

I'm no pacifist.I believe in the use of force to defend life and freedom.But that's NOT what the Iraq War is.Iraq was not a Terrorist State.It was a Dictatorship-but not one that sponsors terrorists or had any real ability to harm America.

I don't know if the Administration was just playing Cowboy or what,but the Iraq War and Occupation has CREATED and motivated more terrorists then it has stopped.

No, they want our help. Unfortunately, it's two groups trying to get our help to eradicate the other group from the face of the earth, or at least subjugate the other group.

I guess it doesn't matter that Saudi Arabia doesn't have a democracy. That's different. And they've never done anything to us, if you overlook that whole 9/11 thing.

I think you're prolly a threat, because your opinions make no sense and you have guns. I think I should kill you.

Would that be wrong?

Ya know, iraq is a crazy place. I'm a Marine that just got back from there a few months ago. What you people dont understand is what you don't see. If you haven't been there, shut the fuck up. For instance, If an Iraqi shoots at you, then goes behind a building and re-appears with no weapon, you can do nothing about it due to military law. Blackwater doesnt follow those same rules as us, therefore helping out our cause in capturing, or if need be killing insurgents. Blackwater also goes on patrols, therefore cutting back on the need for military patrols. All you people see is what on the news, which most of the time isn't true. So shut the hell up.

What your are suggesting is immoral and illegal. I thought we were suppose to be better than the terrorists?

As for the "shut the fuck up" comment, I'm sorry your defense mechanism was activated by actually being forced to actually think.

Strangely enough, there are others that come back and tell even worse stories... which is why we end up discussing issues like this. If you can't handle us discussing it, then go read something else. Nobody is forcing you to read this thread.

I suppose macksierra7 is unintentionally saying is that mercenary firms like Blackwater must have the UCMJ or similar laws enforced upon them or they will continue to violate international law. For example:

According to him, Blackwater's immunity from any prosecution helps our cause, which apparent isn't about Democracy after all. It's just about propping up a military occupation and American imperialism. Thanks for the insight!

I'm grateful that most military personnel who return from Iraq have a much better understanding of their role than this. Having "been there" gives you no special qualifications for expressing an opinion. Your arrogance is exceeded only by your ignorance.

All you people see is what on the news, which most of the time isn't true..


All those films and interviews are fake, huh? Or are they just using words too big for you to follow?

That's a historically horrific conclusion to jump to. Did the Jews do something to deserve mass slaughter?

So Iraqis are trash and scum? Gee thanks, Billy McO'Reillyson. Kindly remove your fingers from any and all keyboards.
