iraqi kids throw rocks at US troops (video)

Go Iraqi Kids is my first reaction, I'll watch it first though before I say anything else.
Edit: OF COURSE YOU CANT USE DEADLY FORCE THERE CHILDREN AND YOU A F******G MILITARY MACHINE!
 
Wow. There's obviously a strong feeling of resentment for the US troops' presence.
 
lol, the U.S. Troops comments are funnier, he wants to shoot kids for throwing rocks!
 
dude, no wonder iraq hates the US. the troops want to kill the children hahahahah if I were in that truck, i would have thrown a snowball at them, that probably would have freaked them out more so than any bullet ever could
 
mmmm they want their revenge because we bombed them a lot

so i guess i don't mind
 
from today:


"In places like Mosul and Najaf, residents are seeing tangible progress in their lives," ..."They're gaining a personal stake in a peaceful future and their confidence in Iraq's democracy is growing. The progress in these cities is being replicated across much of Iraq. And more of Iraq's people are seeing the real benefits that a democratic society can bring."

George Bush
 
Dude, I used to throw rocks at people's cars too when I was that age. I didnt do it just because I hated them, I was bored. Anyone else think that these kids are just having fun and passing the time? Its an immature game sure, but it doesnt provide any evidence that the country is against the troops.

And the guy in the video is just bs-ing. Everyone knows you dont shoot unarmed kids... he is just pissed that the kids are allowed to break his windshield. Would you guys not also be pissed and say things like "I wish I could kick the crap out of that kid"... even though you dont mean it?


Damn, you guys read into things way to much.

no but this does:

* 82 per cent (of iraqis) are "strongly opposed" to the presence of coalition troops
 
I bet they wouldn't get any stones thrown if they were an ice-cream truck!
 
I would swerve at them and then as soon as I got close to running them over would swerve back...hehe
 
Was it just me who saw a body lying on the ground? About 2/3 in, at the left side of the road.
 
That would've been so good to see them run those little shits over. Kinda sounded like that about 1:35 into the video.
 
The US really aren't very good with militaristic takeovers. They could learn a lot from the Combine. In City 17, those lil' brats would be taught a lesson or two!! ...actually, come to think of it, they'd all be dead anyway because the Combine don't encoarage breeding / children.

not too far from the truth:


"The survey indicated that violence accounted for most of the extra deaths seen since the invasion, and that air strikes from coalition forces caused most of the violent deaths, the researchers said.

"Most individuals reportedly killed by coalition forces were women and children," they added."

I'm sure you would be rooting for the Iraqi children if they were shooting at the trucks. :|

Then how come 82 percent of them are'nt shooting at us? :D

To be honest, this is just one video of one instance. And, lets be real -- what someone says today could be wrong tomorrow. Nethire of us are in that environment, so none of us will be able to predict what kind of reaction we see erupt from whatever place next.

I'am of the opinion the Iraq operation is a bit more then messy, but yet, nowhere verging itself on the ends of success, and on the beginnings of failure.

the fact is that you (the powers that be) couldnt care less about the people of iraq. Tehy've never exactly been all that concerned of doing what's right ..if that were true there wouldnt be torture, murder, secret prisons, indiscriminate bombing etc ..it just boggles my mind that so many apologists ignore what is painfully obvious to everyone else

the only measure of sucess they're interested in is fullfilling these goals ...all else is just PR bullshit meant to rally americans into supporting imperialism ...you people make it sound like it's was a huge mistake ..when in fact it was a calculated move ..it just didnt turn out quite like they expected:



"I can't tell you if the use of force in Iraq today will last five days, five weeks or five months, but it won't last any longer than that," - Donald Rumsfeld

Unfortunately for the powers that be, I actually care about the Iraqi people.

But I don't care for there resistance which in total irony, is trying to assasinate Saddam Hussein.

I don't fear imperialists, but National Socialists on the other hand...

Imperialism caused WAY MORE deaths than National Socialism...

Just think of the colonial era.
 
Dude, if I was there. I would have thrown water balloons back a them. :|
 
If I was a child in iraq, I'd probably do the same. Fabulous!

Stern, I want to ask you a question about the resistance. What do you see in groups like Ansar-Al Sunnah?

What about Al-Qaeda being in Iraq?

Indeed, they allowed Osama Bin Laden to fester, and they gave our enemy a needless victory.

If I was a child in iraq, I'd probably do the same. Fabulous!

Have you ever been hit by a rock? There's a reason they were used to bludgeon mammoths ... I have a few friends over there who do the smart thing.

Every rock thats thrown at them, they pick up and put in their pockets.

This eliminates the people throwing any more rocks, and eliminates you giving them the ammunition back when you throw them in retalliation.

Did that make sense?
 
A kid threw a rock at my friend's Stryker one time. He threw it back like the way you'd skip a rock (sideways), and turned around. His buddies started laughing hysterically and going OH MAN HAHAHA because apparantly the rock hit the kid right between the eyes and knocked him on his butt.
 
They throw rocks because they know they can't fight back. Tough but the Israelies have dealth with it for years.


Oh an LOL @ stern for using a link from the guardian.

Thats an interesting typo.
Indeed, the Israelis have dealth with rocker throwers for years, quite often they shoot them to dealth.

Solaris, shut the feck up, my god. How about I hit you with big rocks while you go down the hill at 40-50mph, see how fun it would be. Dumbass.

I dont see anything interesting about it, I mispelled dealt. I see what your getting at though, if you mean they "death them" well this pic basically says it all.

Looks pretty dealthed to me.
 
If i was in that convoy, to get revenge i'd:

Get an old truck that is about to be withdrawn from service,
make it radio control, with dummies in the seats.

Then as the kids pelt it with rocks, it would start smoking and then catch fire.
The iraq kids would shit themselves wondering what they had done as the other trucks stop.
They'd leg it.

I have a feelings things would go dramatically different, namely with an attempt to drag out any bodies inside but a discovery of none, then a desecration of the burned vehicle frame.

I'd like to see one of those kids throw an empty grenade shell with a firecracker in it.

"OH SHIT! MOTHER****ER THREW A NADE! I LOVE YOU MAN!"

*crackle*

"AUGHGHGHGHGHHGHGHGHGHG!"

EDIT: But after thinking this through more, yeah, I can understand why these kids are throwing rocks. And yeah, I can understand why these guys are pissed.

I mean for cripes sake, getting hit by a rock going 40 mph would in no way be fun. A big slow bullet to the face.

On the other hand...

I mean for cripes sake, who wouldn't throw a rock and some guy shooting at your grandpa because he thinks it'll "help".

EDIT: And zeus, I mean old guys with guns. Not "purpously killing" old guys.
 
Only assholes honestly complain about not being allowed to kill kids throwing rocks at them.

Sure, its annoying. Sure, you may hate them, but hell.. you can't shoot children for smashing your windshield.
