While i don't like the soldiers beating those kids, im sure they did something to bring it on. When soldiers occupy a country these things happen. The best would have been if the "west" had just stayed out of Iraq.

Im all for them being beat, if you didn't hear the cameraman I think he said they were shooting at them. BTW there is no such thing as peaceful protesting over there. And if I was a solider seeing my friends die in roadside bombings and random shootings I'd be on the edge as well.

Nobody stops and puts themselves in these soliders positions, whether they want to be there or not they do not have a choice, but they have a choice whether to live or die.

What choice would you make?

ok what ****ing 'unit' are you talking about? Believe me if you were there with those soldiers you wouldn't be all peaceful and ****....
All am saying is that these guys threw rocks at the soldiers and that’s what they get in return…. THAT'S IT! simple as that.... you do something to hurt someone.... well you're going to get hurt back.... most of the time worst.

BTW... to agree or disagree about the **** in Iraq doesn't make a difference..... ITS HAPPENING!

ITK...you just dont get the point....Team Rukus is right.

Consider having your backyard invaded by a group of thugs. You go protest and get beaten like crap in return. You cant do sh*t and if u go and read the actual story..you will find that the kids were just protesting / throwing rocks and did not had weapons.

Retaliation to this video will result in more attacks and bombings for the Brits and i guess....thats what it is...its just war. Lets kill each other

Go protest somewhere and throw rocks at the cops here in Ontario, you will get pepper sprayed and most likely beaten.

Now factor in seeing your friends and teammates dying everyday, be it from roadside bombs, to innocent looking people blowing up in front of you.

Regardless why they are over there the point is they are there. Again put yourself in their shoes, they can't just get up and leave.

Thats not what the video is about, I may disagree with why they are there but I don't disagree with the actions taken by the soldiers in the video.

szuberi, believe me I do understand what you guys are saying... I just don't think that you guys took into consideration the soldier's side of things.
