NATO Troops spot an enemy convoy and were ready to fire a rocket at it. Unfortunately after they fired, the rocket missed and hit a house with over twelve innocent Afghans in it and all the army can say about this situation is "oops, sorry." no expression

Ms.Marvel

happens to soldiers all the time. sucks to be in a combat zone.

I have and idea:

Apologize profusely.

Compensate any living relatives with lots of money.

Rebuild the entire village and establish permanent ways of making legit money.


Pull the **** out of Afghanistan.

Get rid of some of our military.

Get rid of some of our foreign bases of operation.


Focus more on developing new technologies, keeping the good stuff for ourselves, and selling the other stuff.

Use the extra money from a reduced military budget and increased revenue from our technology sales, to balance our budget and provide better domestic services.


The aind. (Spelled it that way, on purpose. Veterans of the internet will recongize that.)

Resurrect them. You don't really think corporations can't do that if they want to?

Doesn't the military have like heat seeking missiles or something? Can't believe they still use things manually. Weren't those soldiers even trained to shoot something right? Hitting what is perhaps a big truck and yet they miss and hit a house. What is this, delta farce?

that is exactly what they are.. probably reserves and only had one time training with RPG's and various weapons yrs ago or in boot camp..

american military is not the most well trained military in the world it is just the most technological advance one.


crap like this always happens we have gomer pyles running all over the place especially in the army.

Maybe it was Pile who fired the rocket.

Solder: There's an enemy convoy dead ahead! Pile, prepare to fire the RPG at it!

Pile: On it! Oh look, a twinkie. *aims the RPG at the convoy but looks down and tries to reach the twinkie and suddenly pulls the trigger*

The rocket is heading towards the convoy.

Terrorist: WTF IS THAT?!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pile gets up after snagging and eating the twinkie.

Pile: Did I get it?

Soldier: Uh...If by "it" you mean that house full of innocent people and not the convoy that we were suppose to hit then yes, you did.

Pile: Well we can't do anything about it but say sorry but before we do that, lets head to the mess, I hear there's tater tots.

Soldier: ....WTH happened to this world?

Rogue Jedi
Yeah then he pwned himself.

Ushgarak
Obviously bad news, but can people get the facts straight please?

The target was a building, NOT a convoy. No amount of heat seaking technology would help. The wrong building was hit.

It was not an RPG round but a rocket artillery strike from a distant position. Whether the strike was given bad co-ordinates or if the rockets simply missed is not known, but all this nonsense talk about half-trained soldiers is irrelevant also

Or is it...?

Then when the United States gets attacked again, what would you do?

Reminds me of the time I threw a random nade from a distance on MW2 which ended up killing my brother who was on my team.

We ended up losing the war.

That might have been slightly funnier if you were talking about Iraq, Lucien. The Afghanistan link is pretty relevant to 9/11.

Inimalist is referring to the Al-Qaeda/Taliban distinction. Mind you, that's not necessarily a very good point because without there is an entirely reasonable connection between the two.

erm

Have you met my friend Buzz? He's from the Killington family up in Kent.

presumably if ''Nato'' withdrew the Taliban would then regroup and use their superior weapons tech and knowledge of alien science to Rule The World.

Lord Lucien
That is what's outlined in their charter.

It wouldn't, though.


If it did, I certainly wouldn't create a distractionary "feel good" war to to vent anger. That's for sure.



And, if an idiot wants to committ acts of terror, and he's even halfway intelligent, he'll succeed.


But, do you know the reasons for these attacks?

Ms.Marvel
'cause they hate our freedom? embarrasment

shiv
Yeah they want to invade us and enslave us

no, you are totally right

so, the best way to attack the horizontally organized Al Qaeda network, which at its peak may have had 200-300 fighters in Afghanistan (if worldwide), was to declare war against a nation whose people were not largely supportive of Al Qaeda's ideology and which has now turned into a war against a student revivalist movement which has never had anything resembling anti-Western or even expansionist military agendas.

but no, you are correct, I was making a joke. Obviously the war in Afghanistan has little to do with America being attacked again, save that those who want to kill Americans don't have to travel overseas now.

Lord Lucien
America may have had more luck getting to al-Quaeda by offering the Taliban a bribe for their handing them over.

inimalist
Mullah Omar, the leader of the Afghani Taliban, was a very pious individual. While I say he didn't have military aspirations against the west and might not approved of Bin Laden's, there is no reason to think he would have bent to financial incentives.

They really didn't try that though?

EDIT: think like, you and your friends are out at a bar, and one of them is acting like a total dick, and punches some guy in the face, who may have had it comimg, who knows. Either way, agree with the punch or not, whose side are you on?

Lord Lucien
The random guy's. If he didn't have it coming, I'd side with him.

I think he's more interested in why he actually took his shirt off.

inimalist, it's because "macho-men" take their shirts off when they go to fight. It's to show off their muscles to intimidate the other person.



It never works...and it's rather stupid. But, idiots still do it.

K, it probably works on very rare occasions....not not usually, though.

I do it to show off my watermelon sized biceps. Freaks people right the **** out, usually ends the fight because they want to know if I have arm cancer or something.

Actually fighting shirtless is the way to go. Shirts can be a disadvantage in a brawl. And now I'm prepared to be labeled homosexual...

But that video was staged and the kid took off his shirt to get a laugh. Dumb.

Nah. Greg isn't nearly as intelligent as SC is, and Greg types in All caps, with bolded letters, italics, multi-color posts.

You said "do a google search"; that's what I did. Like I care enough to do a in-depth search on what you and a former(?) roid-freak could have possibly talked about.

It's a tragedy and all but really, it's not that bad of an accident. They still scored twelve bronze medals. Let's hope these soldiers aren't strung up and sent down river like the rest of the soldiers who were merely following orders. .

You'd need pretty long arms to do that. Or they would need a freakishly short torso...Or maybe a little bit of both.
