Comments - Waving at a Tank is a Really Really Bad Idea

No one should be surprised. It's pretty much the only way a tank can say hi back.

Why do people get so anxious about having others look at their comments? Seriously, I have 2500 posts here, almost 20000 more in the forums, I remain calm about seeing wizards like LG getting 10 COTDs and probably less-insightful nerds such as me getting nil, I come here to post on my free time, maybe to post really stupid shit, and maybe to post hilarious stuff... and yet never once have I asked people "Hey, look at my comments!" Unless there's a pot of gold waiting at the other end, or a free blowjob...or both... sit back like the rest of us, because your comments aren't worth requesting to be read any more or less than mine.

Israel of course is a nice place. We put it there to act as a giant fucking base in the middle east to wage war. People think they are the good guys because they are doing so well in a shit hole. If we and other countries didnt give them everything they have they would be nothing. We gave them all they need to prosper and more. They arent a real country. They are an occupation in a shit hole.

Israel also fucked up an american ship during that time which almost caused egypt to get nuked by to planes on a different american ship who thought egypt had attacked it. Israel also is HEAVILY funded by us to stay strong there. They also use other countries technology. They have over 400 nukes alone to start shit. Dont be a dumbass. Well unless you think israel are some super people who became dominant all on their own...

Just want to make sure I understand you - if you live in an occupied land, then it makes it okay to taunt, goad, and attack the occupiers? As far as the kids in Iraq are concerned, I'm guessing the only reason they didn't do that shit before we went there is because Uday and Qusay would have their whole family raped and murdered for the offense whereas we usually just flip them off and repair the damage to the vehicles later.

To say that it was stupid means that you got the shallowest end of my point. Children are children no matter what race or ethnicity they are. Firing a tank round at them for waving, whether or not they were being antagonist, is a bit of an overreaction don't you think. Maybe you don't think.
I saw a movie a long time ago called "Savior". It's about ethnic cleansing in Bosnia. At one point, the main character snipes a kid. During this scene, he is flashing back to a memory with his best friend where a kid approaches them and everybody is friendly until the kid throws a grenade on them. The friend dies and the main character suddenly has no problems shooting kids in no man's land.
To think the same doesn't apply here is to be ignorant of how modern urban combat is waged.
Long live Israel

Before I visited Israel on holiday had a very positive view about the Israelis.After I left there ,as a people in general they rank as the worse on earth for me.They are the stingiest rudest people who try to act European.Palestenian feedom fighers are terrorists to the western media, Iraeli soldiers shooting at 10 year old kids they are comandos.An Iraeli tank shelling unarmed kids is it not at the same level as a palestenian suicide bombers ?At least the palestenians have the right on their side, they did not steal somebody elses's land.
Look they israel's 'rude" race is called "Marokaim"
as they are from Maroko
WITH IS A FUCKING MUSLIM COUNTRY
but we have peace full people in here
such as french and russians

These are the same type of kids?!? What are you basing that on? How can you make that kind of assumption? It's like all the assholes that say black people are untrustworthy, it's bullshit racism and discrimination!
Except pikeys, I fuckin hate pikeys!

That's just stupid, the kid in the film as you say threw a grenade, and in your first post you said they were throwing stones. End of the day, whether you're man, woman or child, nobody should be shot at like above for who they are. As I said above, it's a discriminatory thing, "Oh look, children. Quite similar to the one's who threw a small stone at my heavily armored tank the other day. Is it the same kids? Ah fuck it, they're all the same!". That's, in an exaggerated sort of way what you're saying.
Think about it, if those kids are killed for no obvious reason, that'll just make their family become extremists and it'll never end.
No. It's not "just stupid", it's reality. Ever have somebody unexpectedly throw something at you and say "think fast"? If you are in a war zone, and somebody throws something at you that may or may not be a weapon, you're going to act in your own best interests and you'll probably do it instinctively. It would be different if we didn't see jihadists dress their kids up with AK-47's I guess. Then you might actually think "Yeah, it's just a kid meaning no harm".
A Chinese philosopher once told his disciples that the tigers in the jungle could not kill him. The disciples thought he meant to say he had special powers or was immortal. Then he told them that the tigers can't touch him because he stays out of the jungle where the tigers live. So the next question is, how dumb are these kids to approach a tank in the first place?

I'm sorry, you are probably the most full of shit person I've ever met! Using old stupid Chinese proverbs to make yourself smarter that don't really have anything to do with the point at hand couldn't be more low brow! You haven't a notion what you're talking about, you just seem to be trying to make the point that it's okay to shoot kids in some circumstances which it never, NEVER is!!! I'm not going to reply to any more comments from you because you just don't seem to get the idea of not killing children, I know it's a tricky concept but you should really consider it as a way of life?

I totally agree that you are sorry, and we've never "met". First off, I never said it was okay to kill kids, but in the interest of self-preservation there are those that have no problems defending their lives against any threat. Secondly, have you ever watched the videos here and elsewhere of the running of the bulls? Most would say that if you run with the bulls and get gored, you probably deserve it. It's not that much of a stretch of the imagination to say "Don't fuck with a tank." Third, that tank fired a warning shot; they don't miss unless they want to. Finally, I hate to burst your bubble, but Idealism != Reality.
