War crime? U.S. Troops Fire on Iraqi Detainees (Video)

www.infowars.com

Shocking video has surfaced from 2005 of U.S. troops firing on captive Iraqi detainees at Camp Bucca following a riot. The soldiers seen in the video unload full force and even (what appears to be) a grenade round from behind barbed wire fences, while some laugh about direct hits.
Four detainees were killed and five others wounded. One soldier, seen in the video, comments that the prisoners are only throwing “dirt balls and a few rocks.” He was possibly trying to quell what appeared to be a near free-for-all shooting spree against captive targets. “Be decisive on what you f—— shoot,

I apologise if this has been previously posted. A search has yielded no results thus far.
I am utterly appauled at the inhumanity these soldiers have displayed in dealing with this situation. They have no excuse, for what they did. They appear to not be in any imminent danger. These are just a group of meatheads getting their fix of adreniline and murder. I wish that the U.S would take part in the International Criminal Court and bring those responsible to justice. This is your war for freedom, this is your war for democracy, this is your war for liberty and this is your war against terrorism. Tell me who are the real terrorists?

Show us some proof? Why's the guys talking about them throwing dirtballs and you can hear them in the background yelling then? Since when is shooting through a fence then laughing and bullsh*tting around a training op?

Lol good try OP...

Dammit. i went to edit and wiped out the lot
Im such a meathed


Another disgusting act perpertrated in another senceless war.
I could almost condone the soliders shooting if the detainee's had a knife or even a sharp stick,
But shooting at rock throwing men that are behind a fence with nowhere to run is digusting, and there should be no excuses for their action.

Have we found the WMD's yet?

Have we even begun to justify this travesty of a war?

Or is it just for entertainment that we shoot unarmed prisoners from behind a fence and laugh while doing it?

The United States is the epitome of hypocrisy, we scream about human rights abuses in China when they lock up a dissident while we're invading other countries and slaughtering civilians like they were dogs.

As a combat vet, I'm am ashamed by the actions of "some", not all of my fellow soldiers. There have been other vid's of troops shooting innnocent Iraqi's and this isn't the first.

There is no such thing as war crime when it comes to US, do you think anyone can touch US, do you think anyone can force US to comply with the UN Charter Treaty? Do you think anyone can force US to comply with any Treaty?

Show me some proof that this was a training operation and provide me with links that this is so. Do not just make claims and alligations with no substantial evidence supporting your claim.

I suggest you re watch the video you may notice a couple of odd things. First where are the guard towers located?? Next look at the blast from the grenade we call it percussion grenades or you would see dead soldiers because those soldiers are still in the blast range and you'd see dirt plumes trust me.Don't ever believe a story broke by press TV they'll make up anything.

yep that qu'ran burning should made me mad
yep those people getting killed sure upset me.

even tho i didn't see either one happen in that video but hey you and the video said it happened so it must be true

A "percussion" grenade? When u say we....I'm assuming you're claiming u were or are in the military? If so, then you would know that the blast range for a fragmentation grenade was. I assure you, they are outside of this range.

Think we can get something more reliable than PressTV, which is the mouth piece for the Iranian Government and known propoganda source?

Where were the detainees? Someone point 'em out, I missed 'em in the vid.
Another fail from PressTV
