If someone invaded the US, should they get medals for "military clearing operations" for killing as many Americans as possible during said invasion?
You should shut up here, it would be smarter on your part.
How are the Iraqis your enemies? Is it because they oppose us invading their country and trying to take over their natural resources????
You need to separate the American military from your political agenda, our soldiers do what is expected of them, criminal acts by our soldiers are few and far between, and considered an anomaly unlike our foes, that commit war crimes as a tactic of war, we do not.
Do you think you can shut the fuck up now and stop your trolling on this topic, it’s pure idiocy on your part, grow up boy, or get the fuck out of my face.
What remains relevant is this.
You are commending a man for killing as many Iraqis as he could, while they were protecting their homes and country from him and his fellow invaders/raiders.
If a foreign country invaded the US and gun battles erupted in Brooklyn, every apartment building was being fought for and Americans indiscriminately slaughtered. Would you want the foreign invader who killed the most Americans to get a medal?
Wafare is not “indiscrimate slaughter” and it’s not murder. And all militaries, including those of our adversaries, reward valor in combat, so yes, if the U.S. were invaded I would expect the invading force would award medals to some of its soldiers. What does that have to do with anything?
Many of the fighters in Iraq, particularly in Anbar Province where Fallujah is located, were foreigners, not Iraqis. There is no telling how many, if any, of the fighters in the OP story were Iraqis “defending their homes” versus foreign Al Qaeda imports.
Of course the American military brainwashes troops to demonize the enemy....
