And why is that? Seems like the job of a sniper in the military should be the same with any military in the world, no? Granted, the US has the most superior military AND snipers, but I don't think that matters in the video, as facts are facts.

jimnyc: Forget it. Noir isn't worth the time. But the laughs created by the uninformed are priceless.

Its just the way the show is presented/edited, almost gives a sense of weapon quasi-pornography, which just seems very American.

Like if i had to imagine a fake American TV program about a gun, the OP would be it, complete with countless pan shots of the weapon, slow-mo firing, graphical-gore representation and hi-budget dramatisation of the death it can bestow in multi-angle replays in a video game-esque style etc etc.

Maybe so, but what was described in that video is a real life situation, and I'm sure a little blood and mention of "pink mist" is WAY less gory than things appeared on scene. Hell, I've seen many movies more dramatic and more filled with blood than this. I'd say this one, with a little blood spray, was tamed down a bit in fact so as not to be so gory.

With that said, I think they should give better representations, maybe let us see actual footage and much more gore of these vermin scum getting blown to pieces and shredded up by ammunition! Maybe, just maybe, one or 2 of these scumbags will think twice about getting into the life of terror and being dumb enough to think their simplistic ways can match might with the US military.

you mean 'modern age technology'? Yeah, at least so far, the US leads at that, without question. 2 years from now, Britain may be in the lead. Unlikely, but possible. The bigger they are, the harder they fall.
