U.S. Marines Urinate On Dead Bodies In Afghanistan

Wait... so people are involved in riots and try to over run militaries and consulates and are killed and somehow this is the fault of some guys that pissed on some corpses or burned a book? Ridiculous. The book is not a person. They are the ones KILLING PEOPLE. What is even more stupid is that they are KILLING THEIR OWN PEOPLE.

What absolute dumb asses.

I agree.

Like I said on the other thread.... the pull of those religious fanatics is always towards that sort of depravity, the murder, the blood, the beheading... a great mayority of them (not all of course)are like that ...that's what they like.... the like it as it is!

If it were not so tragic.... it could be a macabre and depressing joke :(

What I don't get is why so many people try to defend murdering rioting scum. Nobody defends the riots after the NBA Championship or those that march and then riot at the G20 or anything... but burn a book and watch the middle east descend into even more chaos as they slap themselves with chains, kill their fellow country men and talk about beheading people after sending 14 year old kids into cafe's with suicide bombs. What a ****ing joke.
 
I am sure that there are a lot of morons that would riot about that here but that they would direct their anger at the oppressors... and we are not out just burning Korans like it is our sport. We punish our people when they do things like this and we have policies stating that we are doing our best to adapt to their sensitivities and culture. Some bad guys doing bad things on American soil would not enrage riots where we started killing our own people. Don't be ridiculous.

What are their policies? We will kill and behead anybody that makes us angry. To attempt to compare the two is lame.

You know nothing about the Afghanistan culture do you?

The culture is the religion which is a "Religion of Peace"....The riots and killings are a terrible way to express that peace.

I know Bodhisattva, it is the monstrousness of religious fanaticism ..... that's what those brave American and Australian and soldiers from all over the world, have to deal with day after day!


The behavior of those Islamic fanatics can easily disgrace a race of alley cats!

Nods head.

Right... that's it. Your powers of deduction are as amazing as usual. The issue has nothing to do with culture either... it is about reaction.

I don't blame the religion... I blame the people. Christianity has terrible TERRIBLE aspects of it in the Old Testament but nobody practices those. They evolved. Moved on. Realized that selling your daughters is not civilized. The masses in Islam are being lead by zealots intent on power and enslavement and it is a shame.

You mean like the Christians that somehow manage to justify killing far more people than have the Afghans?

They are basically nomadic with different regions having their own customs. Most are Muslims which place the highest reverence for their holy book and the bodies of their fellow Muslims.

What is the point of being there, if we care nothing about respecting their culture???

We aren't "Christians" going in and doing anything. We are democratic and secular nations... big difference that you seem to want to over look. Also, we are respecting their culture. Just watch some documentaries and see how well trained our soldiers are and how they go out of their way to communicate with and help local Afghans. Add to that the fact that there is a a fanatic religious enemy fighting a war against us and you might start to see things from a bigger and more clear perspective.

And a well reasoned and well argued response... might I add. :lol:

Right.

I blame all religious fanatics, Christians, Moslems, Jews, etc.... all religious fanatics are nuts! Lock them up please!

Inaccurate and irrelevant.

"We" have shown both reverence and respect for the people, their culture and beliefs. It was four errant soldiers who urinated on the bodies and series of mistakes regarding the burning of the Koran beginning with those "Muslims which place the highest reverence for their holy book" who left the book behind like garbage which placed the book in a jeopardy to begin with. There is simply no excuse for the rioting and murders.

I am 100% with you Connery!!!

.... but how can you deal with these savages? how? :(

These fanatics belong to the Middle Ages.... they have no place in this century!
 
The hypocrisy involved in the constant political media barrage involves looking at every issue on its own seperate island. Then the brainwashers at MSNBC or whoever can talk about personalities - without regard for policy or how issues are interlocked - thus, the dying economy, the bankrupt Federal and State Treasuries, and the lack of American disposable income will never be linked with the costs of Health Care or the continuous pre-emptive war. NBC, a war profiteer, will be then freed to create bread and circuses about Bachman for Rome to devour, to the detriment of real change or democracy. The corporate media are the equivalent of horses with blinders.

my apologies ..but you don't make sense to me!
 
One rule in the Corps. If u do something stupid don't record and post it on the internet.

Cpl USMC MILITARY POLICE K-9 Unit. VIA taptalk.
 
Ah that's Islamic extremists for you - someone offends us, so we respond by killing people. But the soldiers are somehow the "real bad guys". Sure.




Islamic fanantics are bloody savages! No mercy for them.
 
Inaccurate and irrelevant.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion.

Is that why we are so well loved there?

If what you say is true, why not just leave then? If the Afghans are such horrid people, why are we still there?
 
I swear to God.

Just because America lost the battle for the global economy, the government thinks they have the right to bomb their way back to supremacy?

Who gave them that right?

Why don't you better control your tongue and go fight in Iraq or Afghanistan or better yet, in the coming war with Iran?

No.

Why doesn't America just stop spending a trillion dollars a year on the military and stop bombing everybody?
 
No.

18,536 terrorist attacks since September 11th, 2001. Thats why.

We have sustained the high level of casualties because we are on the ground and in their cities working with the locals. Having lots of locals on the news talking about how happy they our with our presence doesn't suit the liberal medias agenda so it's not surprising most Americans don't see it or even realize that it exist.

These aren't extremists protesting, they are the Afghans, that we are "supposedly" there to help. People that do not understand, or respect the culture, have no business being there, as they are putting their fellow soldiers at increased risk, and harming the credibility of the US military.

Right.

These aren't "extremists" rioting and murdering innocent people, they are Muslims.

While it can be argued that some of our wars were not needed and caused more harm than good it can be also argued that our "policing" the world has made it safer and additionally that we were able to help millions upon millions of people with our aid. Perpective.

They are some Muslims... I know quite a few Muslims that can quite easily sit and drink tea and discuss the issues with ease.

Does that casualty figure you gave include the number of Iraqis killed by U.S. trained death squads?

How about the number of civillians killed by U.S. airstrikes and extra-judicial assassination in Af-Pak?
