The 'AK47s' were cameras, they just looked like weapons from the Apache. That's why everyone is getting so up-tight about this.

oh right, well the apache team must of genuinely felt asif they posed a threat and must have genuinely thourght those cameras were ak's'?
poor judgement, i have to admit.

Yeah, that's my view on the situation, although there really is a clear intent in the guy's voice, like when he calls them 'pricks', there's just something sinister about his tone.

Shocking video footage. It's seemed as though the gunner WANTED them to be carrying weapons. I could clearly tell they were not carrying weapons, and i'm watching a video!!

Again, another **** up from the armie's out in Iraq. The gunner says they have no forces nearby, hence KNOWING that they would get the go ahead to open fire, as they are the only ones in the area. I don't like the thought of people killing innocent people because of a lust for war. I do hope that wasn't the case here and he genuinely did have good intentions, but it's definitly questionable!

hahahahahaha thats the way its done

Wait so They Wernt Holding Guns ? omg What Fags Would Just Kill Random People

They requested permission every time, although the laughing and "Bullet through the windscreen look at that" are slightly disturbing.

They are accused of "Video Game Behavior" I say Fukk that, I played allot of video games and all I ever see is Campers, run and guners and noob tubers-Didnt see any of that, also Ive never been asked for permission to engage the enemy- normally I get shot in the back by friendly fire. LMAO.

Id say they did their job, there appeared to be weapons in their hands, and with our troops in the area, they did what they had to do to protect their own. I am sorry to hear about the kids though.

I have a few thoughts on this. First thing is this happens to be one of the tragic stories that comes from a war. Many people loose their life as a casualty of war...enemies, solders, and civilians.

As for the soldiers in the helicopter that performed this horrific event... I guess I have just one rhetorical question which I don't think we can answer sitting in our comfortable homes posting on NGU... PASSING judgement on those forces protecting the freedoms of my country; What would you do?

We don't have any direct experience dealing with this type of situation. We don't know how many times woman and children are used in attacks on soldiers. I'm pretty sure all enemies are not wearing t-shirts to the effect detailing who they are and their intentions. Relate this to Call of Duty... Do you stand in the middle of map just spinning in place, firing in the air and alerting enemies where you are? No, you try and take cover, flank, and mount your attack in a stealthy manner.

Does this mean the soldiers are abstained from responsibility? Does this mean the commanding officers are abstained from responsibility? I'm not sure the answer to that. I think the individuals in the military have to make split second judgement calls based on their experience, training and atmosphere. There is no way they'll be able to bat a thousand.

In my personal opinion they deserved to use that apache the way they did, they deserved it, after all they DID get an 11 killstreak.
