I´m still sick bro, can´t even leave my bed on some days, that´s why some videos are shorter than others...
Anyway...Thank you!

It's still longer than most videos so you're good. LOL I'm going to start posting soon, I'm just gathering videos that aren't widely known. I was going to post some of my own personal videos from Iraq and Afghanistan but decided not to for two reasons. I don't want it all over the internet. If I could post it here and do it so no one could record it, share it etc I would do that. I don't want the video used as propaganda. There's this dude that just won't leave me alone about me going to Iraq and Afghanistan because I'm a murderer and all this other stuff he's accusing me of doing. Falsely accusing me, I should add. And they are really gore focused videos. So it sucks. Sorry for rambling. LOL I do that when I'm sleep deprived.

It´s all good, ramble as much as you like...^^
Considering that your Footage would be pretty unique...yeah, it would get downloaded and shared like crazy...
Hm...If you would put some kind of Watermark in them, they still could get taken out of context and even if you would put some kind of Text in them, it could get edited out...
But what if you would edit them together in a compilation, similiar to my videos...?

And that guy, you´re talking about, what´s his problem?
I mean...i´m totally against any kind of war, but that doesn´t mean that i think every Soldier or whatever is a Lunatic...
You had your reasons to go to the middle east, i don´t judge you because of it and you don´t sound like some bloodthirsty maniac who went there in the hopes of killing as much people as possible...

I went because I had to. LOL I still believe we shouldn't have gone to Iraq but you can't decide you want to sit this one out. I was thinking about footage from when I got shot. The whole process from the time I got shot up until the camera was turned off. Good amount of gore with just that. I think that guy is just angry and miserable because so many of "his people" were killed. I just pointed out that more often than not it's Muslims killing innocent Muslims. If you look at the suicide bombings, a lot hurt or kill Muslims. Of course, he didn't want to hear that. I told about Saddam's "special forces" having literal rape rooms. (I'm not going to attempt to spell what they're actually are but it's basically his elite forces when he ran the country. As crazy as this is going to sound, we never should have killed Saddam. Yes, he terrorized his own people but he would execute terrorists that entered Iraq. Iraq was Bush Jr's war, that war was about revenge because Saddam Hussein once threatened his daddy, Bush Sr. You know the old saying. War isn't about who is right, it's about who is left.

Yeah, i always thought that invading the middle east was just some form of excuse from the US Government...
And don´t get me started on Religion, it has killed more people than any War...
Just a few days ago i read something about ISIS and how they pay people if they throw their own children in front of cars and considering all the footage from the middle east, it´s not suprising...
Screw that guy who keeps annoying you, he´s defending a religion which is stuck in the middle age...

I gave up on religion a long time ago and totally agree with you. The things Muslims do, doesn't surprise me anymore. This mother literally sent her child, probably around 7 or 8 years old, to blow up American troops. Long story short, every day these kids would show up with breads and sweets for us. It all seemed innocent enough, and this was still closer to the start of the war so we didn't think twice about it. One day the little boy walks to the gate by himself. He'd stop and look back, and his mom would encourage him to keep going. As soon as he gets to the gate he blows up. The mother blew up her own child. After that, if anyone got within so many yards they'd be obliterated by a barrage of bullets. We didn't give out warning shots. It just amazes me that someone could be THAT brainwashed that you'd sacrifice your own kid.

I have to admit, hearing your Stories is pretty interesting, although depressing at the same time...
Do you mind me asking how did you cope with it?

Yeah, sacrificing your own children just because you were so Brainwashed to believe in
some imaginary higher beeing has to be one of the most stupid things a Parent could ever do...
I once saw a Documentary about "Tomorrow´s Pioneers" which was a Propaganda show for young kids, it was designed to make them hate Israel and there was one Episode in which they showed a mother which blew herself up because her "Love for Allah" was more important to her than her own kids...
And if that wasn´t enough, her act was glorified and they even had both of her children in that Episode in their studio to interview them...

"We didn't give out warning shots", seriously, i would have done the same if i were in your position...
Yes, it is fucked up to shoot at children or a mother, but you were defending yourself, you didn´t storm into some random village on your own just to kill someone...
And they do stuff like this on purpose because they know that most people wouldn´t shoot at children...

I used to cope by drinking a lot but I stopped because it just made me worse. So I wrote about it all and purged out every bad feeling I that way. People underestimate how much writing/ talking about things you've been through can help. And since I knew no one but me would read it, I was brutally honest about how I felt or was still feeling. When you get those kind of things off your shoulders, it really is a relief. It also helps to remind myself that, given the opportunity, they'll try to kill us. Most days are good, some days it's not so good. This year is 20th anniversary of the start of that war so it's been a little harder to deal with which is why I've been taking a mini break from here. I just don't want to deal with some of the people on here right now. I changed my username because of one specific person but being Random Asshole doesn't really fit me because I'm generally not one. As for the mother sacrificing her kid, apparently that was a pretty common thing. I didn't even realize how common until I started searching for specific pictures and videos. It's crazy to think how brainwashed someone has to be to do that. One of the biggest problems with war, excluding civilian casualties and etc, it's that it makes even the nicest person in the world lose a bit of their humanity and a bit of who they were before going to war. Actually, "problem" isn't the right word. It's tragedy. You can literally see the change in pictures. You'll see less and less of humanity and more of a dead coldness. Like the spark they might have had is gone... We did have signs in Arabic warning them to slow down and stop at a certain point. We didn't just shoot them. Usually. LOL That's a joke. Yes, there's been more than a few incidents of revenge or what people love to call "war crimes". Like shooting an unarmed insurgent. You really don't make the best decisions in the middle of a war. I may not agree with some things a few Marines have done but I understand why it was done. You never know when a smiling face is going to be holding a rifle and pointing it in your direction. It's happened before when training Iraqis and Afghanis to properly shoot etc. They'd turn the guns on us. You can't trust anyone that isn't wearing the uniform and flag you are wearing even if they're on your side. Everyone is capable of doing the unimaginable. Age doesn't matter in a country where terrorism is a part of every day life.

Hope you get better soon.
