Collateral Murder – Wikileaks – Iraq
sunshinepress — April 03, 2010 — Wikileaks has obtained and decrypted this previously unreleased video footage from a US Apache helicopter in 2007. It shows Reuters journalist Namir Noor-Eldeen, driver Saeed Chmagh, and several others as the Apache shoots and kills them in a public square in Eastern Baghdad. They are apparently assumed to be insurgents. After the initial shooting, an unarmed group of adults and children in a minivan arrives on the scene and attempts to transport the wounded. They are fired upon as well. The official statement on this incident initially listed all adults as insurgents and claimed the US military did not know how the deaths ocurred. Wikileaks released this video with transcripts and a package of supporting documents on April 5th 2010 on http://collateralmurder.com

So – - i am guessing that if i were to sail over to america with 1 barrel of oil onboard and i am navigating with a telescope pointed towards the US coastline, that at the first sight of a helicopter i should evacuate my family from below decks and jump overboard ? ?
Maybe the worst collateral damage the US war has generated is the current attitude and apathy that the next generations will need to understand in order that they can learn how to better survive in an American world that is self imploding.
Remember none of us were born stupid – - some of us just forgot to learn.
