Army officials acknowledged that the 30 mm cannons used by the Apache gunners were far bigger than what was needed to kill the men, but said it is the smallest weapon the Apaches have :eek:

Thats just freaking awesome, LOL hope they had dental records cause nothing is left of that first fool.

I hope those pilots didn´t kill someone who was just carrying something different , not weapons, that could be the shit being killed with such a nailer weapon mostly used to take out "APCs" and low armored tanks.

That's f'ing sick.

I can't believe anyone would find that "awesome".

It's so mechanized and automated, when it's dealing with living people. Combat was horrible enough when it was two guys running at each other with sticks, this is just insane.

Roger that.
Those guys in the Apache are my heroes, they deserve a medal. Firing at wounded people crawling on the ground is such a great feat. Needs courage. Hail to the gallant US troops.

I'm sure no one really wants to know if these guys were really terrorists. After all, they're not americans, so who cares. Same applies to Canadian troops in Afghanistan.

I disagree with you on this one...if was someone innocent (American, Canadian, Europeon, African, even innocent Mid-easterns)

However, if these are the bastards killing our troops in Iraq...i think it is just! :blow:
