Some of you have heard of the video, the one with the soldiers shooting the puppy to death.

Here's a link (in case you didn't see it) (viewer discretion is advised)

Now, I'm a big military guy. I respect the army and the navy. But seriously, what kind of fucked up people would do that to a puppy? I'm not going to let these sick fucks change my opinion, they represent themselves only and not America's forces.

Opinions?

In the army you have a crapload of half brain retards that can do the drill and assemble weapon for speed but shit like this is bound to happen. War zone is no mans land and often people dont realize the things that take place there cannot always be made to disappear. Not in these days.

Ive seen videos of US soldiers doing all kind of wack shit. Funny one was where they listened to muslim ceremony somewhere in night and cried to the air: mortar me allah.

I found the idea where theyd dip the bullets into pork rather amusing though.

So basically, its war, shit like this happens. If it gets publicized, then someone answers, while numerous similar events never surface. Is it right? No.

Watching this video reminds me the decapitation videos to be honest. Not much difference. Fuckers couldnt even shoot.

Mmm dunno if such links should be posted here since we do have younger folks here ^. There is a lot of sickening shit on the net. The one me and alex once watched was something special though. Even people who have seen it all recall that skinning movie.

Here's another perspective:

taken from a Shoutwire user posting on the article.

Immaculate1 wrote:I don't think people should judge too quickly here.

I've been looking over this a couple of times now, waited a couple of hours, looked again, and later again.

They sure are killing a dog, but I don't see any malicious behaviour by the soldiers. They are not enjoying it and they are not laughing at the dog and making jokes. They also try to make it as quickly as possible. After 4 shots with the M4 one guy remarks in horror that the dog is still alive and pulls out his 9 millimeter gun 'Watch it, watch it, 9 mil'. At close distance a 9 mil wreaks more havoc than a 5.56 mil. That final shot quickly puts the dog out of it's misery.

We also don't see what happened before this. We don't have any context. If you look in the first seconds, you can see that the dog is lying motionless and that the entire hind flank of the dog is red, as if all his skin is peeled off.

In fact, I think he is missing his entire hind leg.

We don't know how that happened, or if the soldiers are to blame for that. Perhaps the dog ran on a mine or was hit by a car earlier. I at least don't see the smug behaviour with these soldiers that the puppy-throwing scumbag showed while looking into the camera. I think that if they did this on purpose they would have made jokes about the dog's agony and that they would make it last longer and enjoy him yelping with pain.

I think this was a mercy killing, and nothing more.

There is no evidence in the vid suggesting any maliciousness.

Still took them 5 bullets to kill a dog.. hmm..If it was humanely wouldn't they have done it without putting it in agony for 15 seconds first?

The US wanted some war, and to have some fun, so you cant really blame them.

You are wrong.

I respect the SEALS and Australian Commandos, You have no idea what they go through to be the BEST of what they do.

You forgot Foreign Legion, but that is not the point. Sympathy is not a mandatory quality these people must have, and the sense of humor no matter how sick is not somehow.. extracted from them. Also, I would not mention army special forces when talking to the army. If I mention police force will you complain about swat or omoh?

The new perspective derek's post adds is interesting. It may well be true, and a video out of context can be used excellently for propaganda war. However Ive no doubt some of those fuckers would shoot puppies just for target practice.

You can put a bomb in a puppie, imagine, you just look at this cute little thing, then it just blows up, anything that moves in Iraq is a danger to the soldiers.

It may be danger to the soldiers, but they are not allowed to shoot everything that moves. Otherwise it would be a massacre. That is why the partisan war the terrorists wage is so successful. They hide in the society and use the society as a shield, as a weapon, as a way of being funded.

I feel the same way, retards like that who give the army a bad name should be shot the same way as that puppy.

And if it was a mercy killing then there's not much to say, maybe it's just another Jihad propaganda film to show AMERICANS R EVIL. Or am I paranoid now :P

i kind of agree with above said that the mercy killing wouldve been more accurate, OR they really sucked at it. I think ill go with the "fun" opinion.

they shouldve walked up to that dog and put a bullet in its head, instead they randomly shoot from distance. if dog was laying on a bomb or something, they eventually still went way too close.

so, bullshit.

It's not just puppies, by the way.

How many times on the news have you heard about a platoon of soldiers raping/killing civilians?

A war is ways different than a simple training for soldiers. Their adrenaline is hitting the roof when they are on the battlefield and some of the soldiers go dumb like this.

Dunno. Friendly fire? Confusion on the battlefield?

In war friendly casualties will always happen.

We are brought up to believe God is on our side and our side is worthy and righteous. Our church supports our Government, our government support our military...

then we watch stuff like this...

I can only say one thing.... FULL....METAL....JACKET!!!

Perfectly normal kids are brutalized by drill sargeants, brutalized by peers, brutalized by the public, then brutalized by the enemy...

they will do this shit...

This shit needs to be on TV on the 6.00 news, not tucked away on youtube.

The only damning IRAQ footage I have seen on TV, came on at 4am when the UK was asleep. A bridge with 200 dead women and children cos Marines followed orders to not let anyone cross the bridge, cos one or two of them might have been dressed as women... A bus that took a wrong turn and every single person was shot on the bus, cos it MIGHT be a bomb. That kind of shit upsets you more than watching 9/11 to be honest. 9/11 was payback... fair and square some might say, for bombing arabia for more than 10 years between the two gulf wars.

And why did we go to IRAQ? cos there MIGHT have been WOMD...

There MIGHT be a bomb in the fucking whitehouse, lets nuke it right now, justice no?

It's sad to see the world get darker as I get older... in my youth great things happened, berlin wall, mandela free, etc... as I got older, the world divided and we are left with blood on our hands -

My friend sometimes jokes that the America would be a peaceful country now, if the germans had got their act together and actually built the Arado New York bomber and bombed the shit out of New York in WW2, then perhaps the American leaders would understand the pain and power they wield in so many countries today...

HomelandSecurity - fighting terrorism since 1492...

but C[A]t you shouldnt feel bad, every sodding army has dickheads like this, including the armies killing those Marines...

The fact that the news dont cover anything but propaganda or incidents that have leaked to the media of different countries due to its visibility shows how nicely the system works. We dont care what is going on there, we may care for a minute, when videos such as this come floating, but most of the time we have something else in our mind and the casualties in iraq are nothing but sad statistics.

Such system also nicely supports the importance of wars, and may well lead to the 3rd ww, even though after 1st and 2nd ww steps were taken to stop wars in general. I am not placing to much importance on those treaties, but I find the whole situation quite ironic.

I am also not saying violence is not the answer as certain regimes keep their nation from reality, modern world, from education that does not contain manipulated facts. I was born in such country, and these days you simply have to laugh at the retarded shit my parents were forced to study as "history", containing mostly fake facts and made up events. But I believe that if you are going to set the waters free, you better also know how to make the waters flow backwards. In my eyes, while the attack on iraq seemed to be pretty much a success, the war has been a complete failure.
