  Can't stop once you start. Stings.

  I do think the sad thing is the terrorists over there will cry foul so our govt will of course make examples of these Marines. I hope not though!!
• skank

  

  I say they should have shit on them too.
  
  Is this real though? I mean after all the trouble soldiers got into for just scaring them with dogs and other minor stuff they did, these soldiers can't be stupid enough to do this on camera can they?

  and here is a video of terrorists dragging US troops around dead. We will call it even

  Trust me I am with ya!! And I also agree they should have shit on them too. I don't know if this is real or not but it is starting to make the news, it is also on Yahoo front page too as well as elsewhere. If it is real I hope nothing comes of it! But with that said our soldiers need to be smarter and put down the cameras! The govt will bend to the terrorist cries!</SPAN>

  You mean the cries of citizens of sovereign nations who don't like foreign military members killing and then pissing on people in their country?
  
  Look, if these people really were terrorists then I have no sympathy for them being killed. But you have to be a classless motherfucker to piss on someone's corpse ("but but but they do shit like that too", we are supposedly better than them right?).
  
  How does this make our country more safe? It doesn't and if anything it makes it less so and things like this are why the region hates us. It's not because we're free or rich, it's because we have soldiers in their countries pissing on dead people (regardless of whether these people did anything for them to need killing like shooting at the soldiers the way it will be seen is occupiers killing people and pissing on them).

  Taliban kill themselves. Not real sure why pissing on them even matters...
  
  Besides, urine is sterile, so maybe they were just cleansing them?

  that doesn't even make sense...and yes i know the story behind it.
  
  I am glad they are dead, fuck them. but what good does it do to piss on them and video tape it? Seems childish and classless to me. they are gone from the earth, and sure as hell aren't going to la la allah land. so why is there a need to do that?

  We are better than this....

  The terrorists won't, the citizens of Afghanistan however might object to foreign occupiers killing people and pissing on their bodies.
  
  Yes, if they were Taliban members they are bad people but that doesn't mean we need to act in this manner. It makes everyone look like shit.

  This was all you needed. Reps for the truth.
• 2kool4skool

  

  As others have said, we're supposed to be better than this. Hopefully they do make an example of.anyone that participated.
• Pick6

  

  Agree with most people on here. We are supposed to be better. However, a lot of the soldiers just dont have common sense.
  
  Not trying to offend anybody, just how I feel.
• DeyDurkie5

  

  well a lot of people that go into the army are hillbillly, rednecks, dumbasses. So it makes sense. They will be glorified when they return to their trailer
• Fab1b

  

  Look I can't change what these guys did here, all I am saying is I hope they don't get prison for this via court martial, etc.....However my stance is the govt will bow to the reactions over there, you say citizens of that nation, well some yes but the terrorists themselves will cry foul too! I don't see their govt tracking down the torturers and those that drug our troops bodies through their streets. All I am saying is that should they be reprimanded in some way yes, but kicked out or prisoned no! However I see that happening!</SPAN>

  um you are forgetting that while there is corruption, the Taliban is not representing the nation of Afghanistan. They are a terrorist group, not the nations armed forces.The U.S. on the other hand is being represented by our troops' action. Act better.

  I won't play that game, that country allowed them to take over and they bowed to them and their terrorist ways. However they attacked us, and whether they are there or even here they must be eliminated!

  How does it feel to have the same ideals as the people you hate?
• ytownfootball

  

  I don't have a problem with the victims or the soldiers doing the fighting wanting or thinking about doing such, hell we all want to, but to actually do so sends a pretty clear message that we're no better than them apparently. Which, by our actions being there, suggests that we think we are.
  
  Hate to say it, because I don't blame anyone for wanting to, but you just can't.
• Fab1b

  

  It feels fine to me, however I am not attacking them. Can you read? I said they attacked us therefore they get what they get. If they don't attack us they are still sleeping soundly in their caves over there!
