I just saw part of this video on NBC. Disgusting. How an insurgent is able to sneak up to this Bradley TWICE and was not detected is beyond me.
Has anyone seen this before?
Thoughts, Comments...?
What were they doing there alone .. and were they asleep ..?? I thought it was possible to see all the way around the tank by those inside ..??
This is just remarkable. We can't see Saddam hanged, but it's perfectly okay to see our own blown up! Great!
NBC has really fallen over the cliff.
Maybe it was abandoned. There did not seem to be any secondary explosions indicating there was any ammunition inside.
A Bradley is not a tank, but someone wasn't paying attention.
Typical stuck on stupid reporters.
Well yes, considering that the enemy looks like everyone else and plus limited visibility when buttoned up in a BFV or Abrams for that matter, it's not too much of a surprise. If there are no dismounts providing security (a dubious option given homicide bombers) then all the more easily done.
Don't think the crew are not doing everything they can because they are. So let's us do what we can, like fire over 50% of CongressCowards and run the bastards out of town, open up the ROE (rules of engagement) to like it was on OIF 1 (ya head towards me or have a gun and you're dead no questions asked), get off the PC crap, kill the bastards.
Dad of an Infantryman/Bradley Commander/gunner/driver.
On the close up shot who blocked out his face so he couldn't be identified? NBC or whoever made the video. Most likely NBC protecting their sources.
"This has been a RAGHEAD presentation!"
Too bad it wont happen. Too many of you don't care enough, and will get your political drugs wherever you can find them.
Very strange... the Bradley just seems to be parked there like a car left at the mall while the owner is out shopping. There are no other coalition troops around or signs of life. Strange. Someone on our side seems to have made a real error in judgement...
And what was that red circle that appeared for a while...it was highlight something for a few seconds.
Cockroaches can sneak anywhere. That is why we exterminate them. Why can't we exterminate the Iraqi cockroaches?
I wouldn't be surprised if it was an NBC reporter who planted the two bombs.
Who filmed this?
A CNN staffer?
brushcop...all the best to your son and his battalion. I'm with you, fire the spineless wussie congresscritters and Senators and start over BUT....the replacements need to be checked before starting office by a doctor to see if they have any nads.
I refuse to watch such crap.
