What it looks like to have a tank shell coming at you....

[SkyRock]

There is no gore in this, just something from syria where the tank shoots almost directly at the guy filming... they slow it down and you can see the shell coming in...

Some fascinating video coming out of this war. Everybody has a camera it seems. You tube has hundreds of combat videos.

RngFndr, the FSA is not Al Qaeda . There are a lot factions on the rebel side probably including AQ and a lot of them are being supported by the west including the US and other Arab countries with money, equipment and weapons.

It's a nasty little war though.

Yup, lots of war crimes going on over there and alot of them are documented.... I support Assad, don't like him, but most of syria was stable for a long time while he was in power... the FSA, especially those groups that are linking up with AQ will never be able to stablize the country, they are all religous schizo's.... Allah awakbr!  This is a war of religous ideals, between two factions of Islam... very sad indeed.

I 50% agree.  Religion is the motivation that drives the war.  The only true ideal ever in any war is control of major resources.

Ok, Rule 14 me...

"The Enemy of my Enemy, is my Friend.."
That kind of thinking will have everyone backstabbing each other..
As we all can readily see in the daily news huh?  

How about "Birds of a feather, flock together.."????
See the vid of the FSA "Rebel", roasting a head over a campfire???
Oh yes, he is your friend, right?

Sure he is! I can tell he really cares about preserving
liberty and the American Way of Life..

Mr FSA gets a suitcase full of CIA money, and I get a hand up my butt..
Things are workin out real well in the new America huh??

(edit) Be careful where you go, some of those links are monitored,
Some WILL get you placed on a watch list, without even knowing it..

Jeez. I ducked in my seat when I saw that thing fire.

The US Marines M777 Howitzer 155mm is actually CANADIAN Artillery firing - not US Marines... phppt
