RT catches up with WikiLeaks co-founder Julian Assange to discuss their release of a classified 2007 US military video depicting the indiscriminate slaying of over a dozen people in the Iraqi suburb of New Baghdad — including two Reuters news staff. The video, shot from an Apache helicopter gun-site, clearly shows the unprovoked slaying of a wounded Reuters employee and his rescuers. Two young children involved in the rescue were also seriously wounded.
@cavegoat13 How about the latter part of the tape when they fire on the van picking up the wounded. The passersby who stopped to help were unarmed and they fired on them. On top of that children were in the van. Of course the soldiers didnt know about the kids but they should never have fired on the van. Is that part edited too? Were the passersby infact armed? because if not they had no right to fire on them.
@smallyb2009;The fact you use the attacks on 9.11 to justify this Murder just proves you have no clue why these psychotic Animals are in Iraq,As you already know, unless your completly stupid,There were NO Iraqi’s on any of the planes on 9.11, These are just blood thirsty evil Murdering Bastards.
PEOPLE WITH NAMES LIKE MOHAMMED , NABIL AND HUSSIEN SHOULD BE SHOT ON SIGHT.
@dionysius5200 shut up idiot. nonsense u hav not humanity. May God come in front of you what is right
Read “The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy And Its Geostrategic Imperatives” written in 1997; by geo-political analyst, presidential advisor, and mastermind of the Soviet-Afghan War, Zbigniew Brzezinski. Then you will know why the United States is in Eurasia.
“How America ‘manages’ Eurasia is critical. A power that dominates Eurasia would control two of the world’s three most advanced and economically productive regions.”
“Moreover, as America becomes an increasingly multi-cultural society, it may find it more difficult to fashion a consensus on foreign policy issues, except in the circumstance of a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat.” (p. 211)
“Never before has a populist democracy attained international supremacy. But the pursuit of power is not a goal that commands popular passion, except in conditions of a sudden threat or challenge (9-11-01) to the public’s sense of domestic well-being. The economic self-denial (that is, defense spending) and the human sacrifice (casualties, even among professional soldiers) required in the effort are uncongenial to democratic instincts. Democracy is inimical to imperial mobilization.” (p.35)
@dionysius5200 does that include OBAMA?
@dionysius5200 you are a brainless piece of shit!
Tempest in a teapot. The original video clearly shows a guy with an rpg and another with an AK. That, in addition to the fact that there was a battle in their vicinity makes them legitimate targets. Perhaps it’s unfortunate the reporter and cameraman were killed. Perhaps not. Perhaps they were aiding the insurgents and got what they deserved.
Tax payers used to murder civilians? Seems like there are no rules therefore no rules of engagement shall apply for all sides. Its free for all. GAME TIME !
haters are just a bunch of dumb liberals anyway. jk haha but yeah, liberals are annoying
@dionysius5200 You’re a fucking retard…
@joecies lol, looked like a lense to me, regardless, nothing justifies theier video game mentality, and the slaughter of unarmed men.
You deserve fascism
@TheBaseballman1990
Yes, people with humanity typically are annoying to people without it. They realize a fundamental part of them is dead inside and they tend to lash out at those who have what they lack, empathy for others then themselves, because of this. It reminds them of the void in themselves and they find that disconcerting and it’s easier to attack others then to try to rekindle it, assuming it was ever there in the first place. Perhaps you’re just a born sociopath?
@JasonCote1 hey man well said, i myself do not believe in this war. this all thing is a fucking game played between a group of really sick people.
@mastercheif1989 Thanks, sometimes the internet truly saddens me as it seems to showcase the worst in humanity at times.

who gives a shit, if they had a chance they’d do it to all of us. kill em all. fuck this pencil dick loser.
I’m a video gamer but I can distinguish fantasy and reality, I was taught never to point a gun at ANYONE or to hurt anyone. My dad was in the Marine Corps and he was disgusted by this video.
I have a question for Julian: his reports do not generally cover top-secret operations or European and other ISAF Forces operations in Afghanistan..why? because the source that provide him papers told them not to and he(Julian) says its called ”harm minimization process” harm to who actually? sources? US military? But reports about Pakistan’s involvement in training al-qaida members are highlighted BUT CIA’s involvement?? nah we have to minimize the harm.. Makes me think who’s this guy ..hm
It’s war Wiki dick! Jesus man, you have never done a days work in your life and sit back judging. Who was it in grade school that hurt you? Mom? Dad? Did you get beat up after school or on the playground? You are doing more harm than good and wish i could have 10 minutes with you. Man!!

Are all these material AUTHENTIC? If they are, lets hope it won’t create more unrest! Another thing is what a way he’s putting his life on the line and let’s hope he’s never planning to have kids. There is an atmosphere of DANGER all around!
