    I don't even want to know because it will probably upset me.

    Our latest stray we have taken in, Axel (a chocolate lab), is lying here beside my desk. I don't want to see anyone mistreating some poor animal. I would have negative feelings such as wanting to hurt the abusers.

    Don't watch it. It's beyond comprehension.

    is this another thread showing that Americans and American soldiers are the worst people in the world?

    how about you post the video of Islamic extremists cutting off the heads of innocent people. or you probably think their actions are justified.

    Are you suggesting that because other people do heinous things it in any way minimizes the acts of the soldiers in question?

    beyond comprehension? I mean, really?


    they should have killed the dog to put it out of its misery.

    You know to me it's not about them being soldiers. It could have been 3 guys in Iowa and it's still completely wrong. These guys are assholes who happen to be soldiers.

    That is typical of young males in general, not US soldiers. I don't think it's fair to single them out. There are plenty of cruel videos on youtube involving animal torture from all over the place.
  • Oh that's nothing, I used to blow em up.

    Literally, with C4. Not one of my prouder moments, but a mission none the less. They were dead already, now they're vaporized. Seriously, I probably blew up like 4 dozen dogs, it seemed ridiculous at the time, but in retrospect, I guess I was doing a good thing.

    BTW: blowing up dead stuff (animals in this case) is no big deal...
    But would you have done the same to a healthy, live dog?

    I'm not saying that just American soliers are the ones who are doing these things, infact we saw american soldiers do much worse to humans forget about dogs, but to know that people like that are in another country with guns, does not make me feel very good.

    But i'm not quite sure that this typical of young males.

    I know you're not saying that just American soldiers are the ones who are doing these things, but you're only pointing at them.

    ah , true. But remember that the you tube kids are not part of an occupying army. With so much blind soldier worship in the country they are from. I think it's important to always show them in the true light. They are not all some innocent young kids who got shipped off to war, we should remember that at the end of the day, they still chose to go. If they were against the war and still went, obvioulsy jail time scared them more than having to kill innocent people.

    But perhaps that is for another thread, as far as this one goes, the video is about a group of american soldiers abuse towards an animal. I did'nt search for this video, it was posted on another website and I thought that it should be seen by more people.

    but think I've seen this....troops shoot dog...he goes down...blood pumping out of the wound???? If this is it.....the heartbreaking thing was when the owner comes out.....watches as his beloved dog dies....looks at the Americans, raises his arms as to say...how could you do this??? At that point you realize the Iraqi's are humans just like us and love the same things we do...and makes you understand the hatred some have towards the US. For you SOB's that think this is funny or get amusement from this post..your sad humans....really sad.

Seriously.

    no, the dog is near death and the troops shoot near it, I think, but do not hit it. the dog limps away. the dog though was already crippled and dying. would have done the dog a favor by killing it. sad but true. now the dog has to starve to death in pain.

    My wife is a social worker and one of the questions at intake (to help diagnose) is "have you ever harmed animals." This is not directed at hunting, but at whether or not people torture animals for amusement. Perhaps it is an indication of sociopathy or some other mental illness.

    adn don't disagree with your analysis of "blind worship soldiers" but war sucks..it fks up the mind....and when you take any young men from any background..and they see death and destruction on daily basis it does change their behavior......I don't blame the troops for their actions as much as those that brought them there. Not talking about this particular video mind you but in general. I just wish we could take George, his administration and all their family members...prop open their eyes with toothpicks and make them watch the carnage they've created.....okay..I feel much better now.

    The dog was crippled, I does'nt mean that it was near death, but even if it was, who in their right mind does what they were doing? Don't act like the soldiers were trying to help the animal. I mean they even video taped it.
