"Collateral Murder" - US Soldiers kill civilians/journalists in Iraq

[Sapphire]

I cared enough to informed everyone i know about this video and i believe that anyone who care about this matter should do so too if they haven't already. Words of mouth is a very effective method of distributing information. So what if major news sources won't cover this story? If enough people know about it then they eventually will be forced to. It's certainly better than bitching on an anime forum about the government, military, etc etc.

Good for you, but I was referring to the people who literally believe that this isn't a big deal because the overall outcome is better even if hundreds and thousands (couple million?) people die. There isn't much I can do about it (without getting arrested) other than talk about it to people. If only funding a war was voluntary! (Then sending troops all over the world wouldn't be so FRIVOLOUS and people would be held more accountable) Not only that, but how different would the structuring be? Secrecy would not be nearly as tolerated. A "I'm paying for this, I want to know where my investment is going damn it" mentality would be more common. And If crazy shit was found out their profits would drop phenomenally (instead of being perpetuated).

One of my British friends once commented that she "lives in a society where pizza comes faster than the police". Another person replied to her "well the police get paid regardless so it doesn't really matter if they show up on time now does it". I think the main problem is no one gets held accountable (and people get away with covering shit up for years) is they all get paid regardless. Millions of dollars can be wasted on something that makes no sense, and other than a statement of "OHSHIII----" the same people get to spend all our money on whatever the "majority" feels like. Lulz.
