:shocked: Wow. Either the creator of this video has no idea what that song is about, or he's a major douchebag.

We, or more specifically, the politicians forget pretty quickly when there's money involved [for them].

I can't help but wonder why more people don't see the connection between blaming a few terrorists for all our problems and the beginnings of facism here at home.

Kinda scary that's it's going unnoticed so easily, innit?

I'm generally pro-American and not easily offended but that was really unnecessary.

Crap like this doesn't help anything or anyone, why create it much less post it?

LoL, most of the videos in there are not even Marines. And the personal pictures are of a bunch of Marines fucking around with weapons. Stupid video. A few scenes were ok, but I've seen em all.

Interesting, it's like the West has developed it's own version of AQ's e-jihad movie line-up.

Instead of seeing Juba snipe our guys, or bomb-ladden cars take on APCs to the tune of nasheed, we have Apache gunner footage and 500lb. bomb results to the tune of (oddly enough), Tool. The "tribes" response further above is appropriate.


Images of dead soldiers and Marines is practically taboo (used to be anyway), but if it's Iraqi dead well then hell, time for a patriotic montage.

Makes me sad. :(

Let's proliferate the lie that Iraq was the cause of 9/11.

Frankly, it's not a 9/11 or Iraq issue. It's the fact that they killed Marines. And we killed more of them.

Well, that's a second issue to begin with. He starts the video off with a clip of the WTC attacks. He obviously wanted to befuddle the issue by pleading to the emotions of people.

That was some real deep analysis. Care to share anything else what comes out of your head?

Until he realizes he's just a government pupped. It's like with those myspace kids. I have a gun, I am teh win!

It's a stupid war silly man, you've accomplished nothing. You don't even know why you're there. You've been told to go to some desert and kill certain people, that makes you what, a hero?

The pettiness of it all is sobering isn't it?

Hrmm...maybe because they didn't buy a tin foil hat at paranoia.com?

I think that makes a compelling argument only if you know nothing of what you're talking about.

Maybe you use to visit ogrish.com back when it was a site and not a forum like I did.
I'll never get that crap out of my head.

I did actually hit that site a couple times and I wasn't bothered by people with their heads wrapped around poles. Not a lot of guts and cleaner than I imagined. It actually could look worse in movies imo. Regardless, I honestly don't know why it doesn't bother me like it should.
