Video: American tank hit in Iraq (seen on NBC)
YouTube ^

Posted on 03/18/2007 3:59:31 PM PDT by ruschpa

I just saw part of this video on NBC. Disgusting. How an insurgent is able to sneak up to this Bradley TWICE and was not detected is beyond me.

Has anyone seen this before?

Thoughts, Comments...?

It was probably shot in Iran and shipped to Iraq as a training/propaganda video. NBC can't be shown up by CNN in displaying propaganda videos. Next thing will be NBC saying Israelis are pigs and apes on the evening news.

Now we just need to abandon another Bradley nearby, though perhaps rigged for the occasion.

ask them why anyone would stand/sit/lay or even HIDE directly in front of the muzzle of that weapon

Why do his Muslim buddies put on an exposive vest and blow themselves to bits? It is clear that these people do not act like rational humans. One does not not need to ask why any Muslim would do something stupid.

I suppose a better question would be. "Why was there no security around the vehicle?"

BTW: I went back for a second look. The movie is gone.

It sounds like the Bradely was parked and the soldiers left it idle, going somewhere. I guess the soldiers that left it idle are now punished with thousands of pushups for letting millions of dollar worth IFV vanish in the flames.

Lesson: Don't park your IFV without someone at guard or it will be in flames the next time you see it.
