    That's why about all they can do is sit back and detonate roadside bombs and take pop shots at our troops.

    Just about everytime they try to do anything else, they get annihilated.
    So what exactly makes US UK special forces so special?

When they detect insurgent action they send their F15s to bomb it, and the bombs stray a good amount off their direction so they send alot more than one and again, not caring if the place is populated, they use their heavy chopper gunships for covering fire in the middle of a city, all that and they cant keep one street in their control. Need any more examples? the US may not like killing civilians but they certainly dont give a **** if it happens.
      If you could pull your head out of your ass for just a sec. The US has spent billions of dollars to buy the most advanced precision guided bombs to try to avoid collateral damage caused in order to reduce the amount of civilian deaths.
      If they didn't give a **** about civilian deaths then why did they spend so much money to buy more accurate weapons?

        thats a good point, it would have been alot easier to just carpet bomb baghdad

        of course there would be major objections from the international community if we did that so thats another factor.

          Well, for one they don't decapitate innocent civilians.

          For another, they are fighting dirty against a dirty enemy. I don't blame them.

              UN should come with a resolution to ban any usage of less precise weaponary in a war, so only those who can afford the expansive bombs like US is licenced to kill...

              Then even precision guided bombs make "mistakes" too, remember we dumped 5 smart bombs and missiles into Chinese embassy in Belgrade?

                  There are always mistakes in war but my point is that the US made a very serious effort to try to avoid civilian casualites. But most mistakes that smart bombs make are usually a result of poor intelligence not the bomb actually going off course.

                        yeah..."mistakes"...

                        Im pretty sure we didnt spend billions of dollars researching and developing smart bombs that could make..."mistakes"...

                          I respect the troops I dont respect the cause, but you have got to understand you cant go to a war and then be suprised when your soldiers die.

                              I'm not surprised... our soldiers have been dying for years now.

                              First you call the troops trigger happy, then you say that you respect them? That's something I don't understand.

                                Its a fact that the US is trigger happy, but it doesnt mean we have to hate every american soldier does it.
