From Wikipedia:
'The Encarta dictionary defines "Ugly American" as: stereotypical offensive American: a loud, boorish, nationalistic American, especially one traveling abroad, who is regarded as conforming to a stereotype that gives Americans a bad reputation. In contrast, Dictionary.com defines "the Ugly American" as: Pejorative term for Americans traveling or living abroad who remain ignorant of local culture and judge everything by American standards. The term originated as the title of a 1958 book...' With this prelude, I give you, The Ugly American: Warning: Content may be offensive, is very graphic and there is strong language. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq5_vG3cYGM |

Americans need too learn to treat others with respect instead of just critizing their culture. We are no better. This planet does not belong to just us. We all have to share this world.

That video is disturbing. You're right. Hence the warning. |

That video is disturbing. You're right. Hence the warning. It's disturbing to see our men acting like that - the children and animals, etc. It makes me sad. |

If this video is real, I hope something is being done. I certainly hope this is faked, either way it is sick.
Where would someone start to confirm the video is real, & identify the people involved, or to prove it is a fake & "out" the bums? |

the toss will turn out to be a hoax. a joke.
the rest of it falls somewhat short of abu ghraib. which is -- let's say not to be compared with nazis. the video is crap and places the authors in the same compaany as their "stars" - well they are free to make fools out of themselves too. pure garbage but for the record i didn't vote for W. twice. |

But you have to ask yourself, if this is a result of extreme frustration, extended tours of duty, or just general callousness, then the United States government is at least partly to blame for putting our troops in a situation where they lack empathy for the Iraqi natives, etc... I realize that they and their buddies are getting killed by roadside bombs, getting shot at by snipers, etc..., which would contribute to the general sense of frustration and hopelessness. And I also acknowledge that our troops do a lot of good things over there as well. |

I didn't watch the puppy video last night. I didn't watch all of the 1st one, I had seen enough I was shocked. I just watched the young man commenting on the puppy video (that made me cry, obviously this young man is stuggling with his own demons). & so I had to click & watch the puppy. I feel sick now. Sick.
I have been against this war from the begining, that being said, I think we owe it to our soldiers to give them the best support we can while they are there, & when they come home. I hope that they will get better treatment than the Vietnam era vets did. Please do not let this cause hate all our soldiers. I am sure that these horrendous videos are showing examples of a very small minority of our men. I hope that thier peers see & identify them IF THESE VIDEOS ARE REAL. Support our Troops, bring them home! |
