Came across this on a military site. Apparently the US is testing this new method of catching terrorist with there pants down. They have been placing these "terrorist traps" all over Iraq. I think this will be very advantageous to our military effort over there. Now this is a training video on setup and "springing" of the trap. When page comes up just click where it say video to play training video.

Eh...the only safe terrorist is a dead one.

That's not being racist. That's not being ignorant. That's not being arrogant. That's simply being real, living in reality. Those bastards, and all the others deserve no more rights that the pieces of shit they are.

Yes. How fortunate we are that they all wear their "I'm a Terrorist" baseball hats so that we know who to kill without checking.

lol...because of course I said "shoot them on spot without questioning or a trial"

I meant in the field...while they're shooting at you or if you catch one in the act. Not every Arab or whatever who walks down the street. Be reasonable.

Yes, reasonable, like how America likes to tell third world nations that they better do whatever we tell them to do or we'll come in and take out their government to set up our own loyal servants who are usually worse than the people removed from power, but that's okay so long as they let American companies exploit the citizens and resources of the country as well...

Gotta love American Hypocracy

So in order to protect 'freedom' around the world it is necessary to dehumanise people?

You should get a look at something called "sticky foam" sometime.

They use it at US nuclear research centers like Los Alamos. If you enter a corridor where you don't belong and you try to breach a door or fail to use a valid card to pass the door lock, the foam is ejected into the hallway - all over you.

It's incredibly sticky, and becomes stiff in seconds. If you're unlucky enough to have your mouth and nose covered, you die. Otherwise, you're effectively stuck there, waiting for the guards.

They have a solvent to get you out. After they finish laughing.

There's also a backpack sprayer for sticky foam. I could have a lot of fun with something like that.

Entirely true, but it's better to catch them alive, interrogate them, and then shoot them.

If they're shooting at you that means they're terrorists? What if they're just soldiers. By that logic, soldiers fighting against US soldiers will consider US soldiers to be terrorists.

Now then, I really wanna hear opinions, what makes one a "terrorist" instead of a "freedom fighter"?

I actually know the answer, but maybe someone else wanna guess too?

Yeah, i'm fed up with all that Bush's "War on terror" bullshit. Really fed up.

EDIT: Yeah man, that really IS war on terror! American soldiers are funny. Soo funny.

The strategic military value of their targets.

I somehow doubt it. It is most likely a warped form or propaganda/reality.

Well, maybe it IS propaganda then: A terrorist is fighting for his country, against the US. Like in Iraq. A freedom fighter, then, is fighting for his country, against some other country, preferably Russia. Like in Chechenya.

You may or may not see the sarcasm.

All it would teach me is that the people who're supposed to be watching my back are only doing so euphamisticly, and are in fact utter bastards.

Most of insurgents are not fighting for Iraq. If I were fighting for my country, I wouldn't conduct suicide operations killing dozens of my countrymen.

Terrorists target CIVILIANS to intimidate and cause fear and chaos. Freedom fighters fight legitimate military and government targets. As you may or may not have noticed, many of the insurgent groups are conducting bomb attacks against the CIVILIAN population of Iraq, and executing CIVILIANS who cooperate with the US. Some of the insurgents (those who strictly target US and Iraqi government forces) are freedom fighters. The majority are terrorists.
