Don't get me wrong - but while the U.S. should still pull the fuck outta Iraq and let the entire cesspool implode on itself - judging the entire American military based on singular incidents like that video ain't the answer, either.

As for the video itself - who's to say how much of it was taken out of context. Any incident can be slanted by selective editing, depending on the agenda of those involved in the production.

Who can say what proceeded or followed the moments caught on tape? Maybe those were insurgents looting wood from private citizens. The voice-over at the end claiming the vehicle was a "taxi" can only be judged at face value (it might not have been a taxi).

Rushing to judge an entire army based on a few scant moments of edited videotape is foolish.
