so you didnt whitewash it? that they can show the surrender but not the pow camps? gonz i thank you for clarifying my questions but as squig said lets not whitewash anything.and in camp i have seen none although there are videos of our pows in camp from my understanding. if white flag=surrender then they violated the GC?
THERE ARE NO CAMPS YET. I ronically, the only ones I've 'seen' were sitting in the sand AFTER surrendering. I guess you could call that their 'camp'.

Iraqi U.N. ambassador says POWs won't be mistreated
This is the kind of people were dealing with. Lies and half truths. Prick dosen't have the balls to admit it.

flav....were the only god damn country in the fucking world who even obeys the stupid ass Geneva Convention. If they throw a white flag up then turn around and start unloading a couple magazines of 7.62 on our troops, then I say alls fair in love and war. What comes around goes around.
Now you tell me. Who's murdering who here flav. Come on. Tell me who is fighting a war and who's murdering? I'm really dumb stuck by your narrow minded view. You think war is bad. Fine. You think that. Next time Brazil gets a visit from the Gestapo we'll just let you worry about it.
I don't like this thing anymore than the next person but before anything else, I support our soldiers. Even before I support my President, I support our soldiers. I don't like Bush anymore than the next person but he's a hell of a lot better than slick willie was. At least he's got a backbone. When my fellow soldiers are murdered, then our response should be the same. Damn the Geneva Convention.
You said in an earlier thread something to the effect that America's war was unjustified and who was next...Brazil. Why in the fuck would we want anything to do with Brazil? You guy's got some concentration camps running down there we should know about? The point here is that this man has murdered people. If you want to forget the Kurds, that's fine. Most liberals like to bury the past anyway. This man is a terrorist through and through who'll stop at nothing to satisfy his appetite for totalitarian control over Iraq. Whether anyone wakes the fuck up and realizes that fact remains to be seen.

My "narrow-minded view" was simply that I don't thinks it's ok to shoot soldiers waving a white flag as you suggested. Does that really seem so off the wall to you?
PostCode said:
Me too. I don't support them shooting at soldiers trying to surrender though.
PostCode said:
I don't believe I have ever typed the word "Brazil" on a discussion board. Would you like to step back into reality please?
I don't know what it would have to do with shooting at surrendering soldiers anyway.

Actually, I would think that it would make you think.
Hammurabi wrote it quite clearly in his laws. An eye for an eye.
Reality? Shit. You wouldn't have the faintest idea of the real fucking world pal.
Whatever though. I can't remember what country your from. Your comments were worded in such a way that you thought the only thing we were doing all of this was for Imperialistic reasons.

Do you think those soldiers thought that up on their own? Not likely. Do you think they thought up dressing in civilian clothes so they could get closer to our troops? Not likely either. The point is there was a certain trust broken there, and it's not likely to be regained. You can sit on your ass and tell us all the honorable thing to do, but you try telling that to some 19 year old kid that knows his life is on the line.

I'm not flav. But war is war. Its ugly to the core and you can't judge our soldiers for reacting however they choose. The dividing line is whether there was a planned deception. Which, apparently, there was. They took it upon themselves to diminish the trust in the white flag and civilian appearence.
