AH-64 Apache and Predator drone gun camera footage in Tall Afar, Iraq(New video of them destroying insurgents)
Agreed - I don't argue that. However I have seen Apache Gunship, AC 130 and Predator videos where context was given.
In them you heard the intercom and com conversations discussing - "hit this group, don't hit that group' and "avoid hitting that building - the little one next to it is the target" - "the guy with the mortar tube, nail him"!
This kind of stuff gives a realistic and more complete picture of how its done - this video gives no confirmation that it is not just wanton bam bam bam.
The danger in this video with its lack of context, is that those against the war can distort its significance in a negative way. The "Apocalypse Now" type music doesn't help its credibility either.
....this video gives no confirmation that it is not just wanton bam bam bam.....
OK, I'm sold
Can anyone provide a link to the actual video file itself?
I collect these types of videos and would like this one for my collection...
B83. Oh yeah! Thanks for the ... "tip".
I do agree that it would be better without the music.
