spooky3 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 That's a 'no' then, fair enough, I didn't think you could. Are you saying that the people who detonate the explosives are the soldiers? Are you saying they planted the IED themselves? Stop being pretentious and deal with the facts as they are laid before us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooky3 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 It’s amazing how many people are ready to condemn the soldiers for something that appears to show of them blowing up a dog-for fun, and it appears that soldiers can be heard- off camera- laughing as the animal approaches a trap that they apparently set up by themselves. Based on this fact less statement in the daily mail they must be guilty. They appear to have done it, the camera doesn’t show them laughing so it could be anyone and they apparently set it up, so they may not have. In other word because they happen to be there it must have been them that set it up and laughed. I hope I don’t find myself in front of a jury made up of people that require so little evidence to form an opinion of guilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooky3 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Hey look, here's a very very typical Muslim extremist laughing at an IED going off. Go condemn that apologists! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooky3 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I think everyone is forgetting who planted the bobby trapped bomb in the first place! Thank goodness a little local toddler didn't set it off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studentbob Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 If I could change my vote, I would. Having wasted half an hour reading this thread (I skipped the plankton bit, though) here is my view. The paper reports that the IED was planted and detonated by the soldiers heard on the video. That being the case, then the premise in the poll is all wrong. But their seems to be a consensus that either the paper is wrong, or has been duped in some way; or that we are supposed to just forget about that and answer a hypotheical question. So, hypothetically, I would look at my men - decide which one was the biggest jerk, and send him in to get the dog. After all, hypothetically, the dog has never done me no harm. But the jerk I send in had been asking for it since we landed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harleyman Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Since none of you have ever been in charge of a platoon is a combat zone and resposnible for the lives of the troops under your command this poll is pointless and a load of rubbish.

nubile Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I know of at least half a dozen people i'd rather see blown to bits than the dog. I can categorically state - I've never been burgled by a dog. I've never had my car damaged by a dog. No dog has ever stolen any of my belongings. Smackheads have done all of the above, gimme the trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSmith Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 For those that voted to Send a soldier in to remove the dog, if the dog stood on the IED just as the soldier got close, then the soldier would have be injured or dead. For those that voted Wait for the dog to move. That’s probably what they did put the dog stood on the IED and detonated it. I’m not sure why anyone would vote Shoot dog before he blows up. The dog would still be dead, and even more people would condemn the soldiers., Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studentbob Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 No it doesn't. This is what I was referring to "On the footage, which surfaced two days ago, soldiers can be heard- off camera- laughing as the animal approaches a trap-apparently set up by themselves."
