again, that video was edited to show what the private wanted it to show. the full video was later released by the military, and it shows that most of the people killed were in fact carrying weapons like AK47's and RPG's, and they were all dresses in civilian clothing. this wasnt a war crime.

Information such as this can compromise military plans and the lives of our soldiers by giving our enemies just what they need to counter. That is why it is Classified.
It was a public relations issue, for internal purposes only.
the americans were justified in the attack.
the video does not show that. it shows americans killing people, which is what they do a lot of in gunships. that is what soldiers do. its not club med.
