Dumbest thread I have read in a while.

Well remember compared to other wars this amount of casualties is very low but much higher then say the gulf war. Is it just the media this time period likes to make a big deal about small things?

ANY time that an American soldier loses their life, for ANY REASON WHATSOEVER, it is not a small thing.

So sorry to interrupt your Lego time. 

Carry on.

     I'm trying to figure out why we would need explosives to take out a "terrorist" armored vehicle.
Apparently the thousands of Hellfire, Maverick, JSOWs and 120mm depleted uranium penetrators
we have over there already aren't up to the job?  :huh

Bear in mind this footage was shot 10 miles away, and the dust cloud went up 10,000 feet.

Yeah, we dont' have "good" explosives.

You guys are trying to have an elevated discussion about military explosives with a 13yo kid.

I just thought I'd remind you of that.

good point rich, but since he's trying to understand, this is the perfect oppurtunity to enlighten him

it's not really the media blowing things out of proportion. i think they're supposed to tyr to get everyone behind the war.
 there wouldn't be 1/2 of the casualties, though IF we didn't try to fight with rules of engagement. if another country invaded the US, do you think they'd avoid anything that may injure a civilian? our soldiers(who are doing an AWSOME job!) simply need to be allowed to fight un-hindered, and this will end.
