User blog:Sgt. S.S./Apache massacre

I was shocked to see the leaked video on YouTube last night about the cold-blooded murder of dozens of innocent Iraqis by US Apache gunship pilots in 2007, which resulted in the death of two Reuters cameramen, Namir Noor-Eldeen and Saeed Chmagh, under the mistaken impression that they were armed insurgents.

I watched, aghast, as first they opened fire on the civilians, then on a van (WITH CHILDREN INSIDE!!!) trying to get the bodies out of there. All the while, saying sick, perverted things like, "Ha ha, I hit them", "Look at those dead bastards", and "Come on, let us shoot!" The gunners must need their eyes tested if they think that a camera is an RPG.

I always thought that the Yanks were the good guys, but now I'm not so sure. And I predict that, this time next week, everyone in Iraq will hate the Americans with a vengeance.
