Nah, it's about tax dollars and corporate profits. My family has made a pile of money on Boeing stock including a massive windfall last year on JDAMs being dropped-and much more of course. Extra week in Aruba in February just to celebate. YEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAA!

There's no point pretending we aren't as equally responsible for what happens in this video as any Soldier. So you should have to watch it like any Soldier. Civilians should be forced to watch much much worse than this and you'd find the appetite for war would dissipate extremely quickly amongst the population.

I agree.  I don't like seeing death and snuff videos uploaded to SpikedNation.com unless they are for information, like "here is a cop shooting a compliant and unarmed man" or "here is what is happening in Syria".  These videos that glorify death should be reserved for jerk off sites like LiveLeak.

The death videos and pictures of the Vietnam War pretty much ended that war wouldn't you say? We don't get to see those videos and those pictures anymore on the Nightly News. 

 

Back in the spike humor days half the videos on the front page were like this.

They were like this with lots of debate about whether or not that was what we wanted for the site.  There are macabre informational videos and there are macabre jerk off death porn videos...they're different from each other.

So what exactly makes this video different from the vids of some gang member getting lit up by police that "eh" likes to post, or the ISIS terrorist that gets shot and gang beaten by an angry citizenry. Aren't those just as bad as this - aren't those guys in the forest the terrorist bad guys or do you mean because this isn't news it's just death porn? What struck me about this video was how immature the soldiers are, and how fucked up it is that so much destruction is at the beck and call of what sounds like a bunch of frat bros. Besides its age I don't see how this vid is any different from half the death shit that's posted here today. What does informational mean? How many black dudes do we need to see get blown away before we have enough information for you to complain about that being death porn? I'm pretty sure it's all death porn here - none of it is particularly informational.

The frat bro is the US military culture. This is nothing new. Been this way since at least 2001 Afghanistan invasion.

Getting to the nitty gritty of it, this simply wasn't an entertaining nor informative video.  I don't even know who is being destroyed save for it's in Afghanistan so essentially it's a giant super military industrial complex reigning down hellfire upon peasants; this has been par for the course for the past 60 years.  

 

With the "ISIS guy gets shot by citizen" that at least is something unique and interesting.  With U.S. police shootings it is at least happens at home and I usually only vote up the notable ones.  This particular video had nothing interesting to say, no actionable information, and included a "jump to this timestamp to see the death" description.  That's how it is different.
