Change "chapters" at top left. They are numbered 1-7.

We need to get the hell out of this hopeless failure.

It's actual video footage of how events have unfolded over there. Are you scared to see what you've been blindly supporting all this time? Chicken sh*t? Scaredy cat? Yellow?

Perhaps you could tone down your BS for a second? It's actually a sound security decision NOT to execute Javascript, nor to install plug-ins from websites if you don't know what they are.

That being said, you could have simply provided the direct link to the WMV file which is the source of the video footage you wanted people to see. Since you opted to ridicule rather than remove the reason a person might not view the video, I figure I'll do the job for you.

This would be the seven chapters of the PBS video Hagbard's original post referred to. For those who don't want to download a plug-in for their browsers, you should be able to click these links directly to view the same content. I run WinAmp as my media machine, and it runs the files fine.

Have a nice day, Hagbard.

"Sound security decision?" The PBS Frontline website IS notorious for doling out computer viruses with their news coverage. Don't be such a hard-on. It's an internet video. Watch it and discuss. It's that simple.

I find the part where the US soldiers take some "Iraqi" soldiers with them to do a weapons collection at an apartment complex and the "Iraqis" discuss that they know where the "big stuff" is but they don't tell the Americans about it particularly interesting. It illustrates why our strategy over there has failed.

Also, the part where the "Iraqi Police" gear up in head coverings to go on a "mission" and when the American observing officer asks why they've got their head coverings on and they say "we can't tell you specifics about our mission"--fifteen minutes later the Americans get a call that over 50 innocent people have been kidnapped by men wearing police uniforms and driving police vehicles--is also particularly interesting. The "Iraqis" are more interested in their trivial religious and tribal differences than they are in American democracy.

I think we need to get the US soldiers out of that hell hole before more die in the crossfire of a civil war.

Geez Hagbard, wake up on the wrong side of the rock? I didn't remember you being this much of a nasty little bitch.

And you're welcome BTW.
