U.S. Troops in Afghanistan Reportedly Killed Civilians for Sport

This is no different than Police OFFICERS in America killing a Citizen with their side Arms or Riot Guns. SWAT is not a good thing, They burst out with no thought to killing a Man that provides for his Family. A Father, A Husband, A Kids Dad. This has taken place in Utah, A Church State. The A T General was happy with the results. Quite clear we have elected some wrong People to Office.

In order to convince you to kill another group of people. I must first convince you that those people are not actually people they are less than people, they are animals. It has happened in many wars. How do you ever fix that mind set when the soldiers come home? You don't many came back from viet nam "broken"? Republicans want to stop Social Security, invest medicare in stock market, and John McCain wants to give those who were injured in a battle a card to be treated for that injury. And forget that V.A. Vote Democratically, or be winnowed out!

I was in Vietnam in 69, 70 and 71 and never saw nor heard of such a thing. I can't imagine such a thing as there were more than enough NVA to kill nor would you want to draw unecessary attention to yourself by making unnecessary noise. We have no idea now of hwat happened and won't until the investigation is complete.

The deliberate killing of innocent people can not be tolerated. If these events occured in the manner that has been described, then it was for fun not defense or protection. Actions like these tarnish the reputation of the U.S. military and is a slap in the face of soldiers who have given their lives for the freedoms that americans enjoy. The deliberate killing of civilians will work as a catalyst to grow Islamic extremism.....is that what people want? I do not think so. Any true patriot would speak out against these individuals...not support them or shrug their shoulder at their actions. The United States can not allow itself to let go of their ethical values...they are a part of the reason I believe the United States is the greatest nation in the world and will continue to be. Unless people allow themselves to accept cold blooded murder!!!!!

This is nothing new in a war zone, i was in Vietnam in 68-69 and the same thing went on over there.

Unfortunately, atrocities happen in every war, on every side. Americans do not want to think our troops are capable of such actions, but war makes these things almost inevitable. Perpetators must be found, convicted, and punished, including the leadership, if any, which allowed it to happen.

Alot of that happens in war. I have heard alot of stories from returning vets from Vietnam. They have done the same to Americans. War is war! No rules!!

Innocent till proven Guilty

The area they are in is very evil,has been for ancients..they were possessed by demons who found them willing and unclean..Once you kill someone your unclean and guilty minded concious is an open market for demonic possession.Cause no one in their right mind could ever do something like that unless they are pure Evil.

genocide will not be permited. all world nations must oppose such practice . prosecutions of such acts throughout recent wars are well documented. any nation including ours must not permit this murderous behavior by its armies or civilian populations. than you
