I read most of that. You have to follow a lot of the links to understand what he's commenting on. Wiki puts it a little more concisely. I have yet to view the video...

i saw part of it on TV last night. The kids a good actor.

It's reasonably clear to me that it's fake.

It's sad that people do this. Weather this is a conspiricy of a small bunch of people (The video production people and MacBeth) or weather this was a "15 minutes of fame" thing done on his own, it reflects badly on a larger group (liberals) as whole because of their perceived association.

You would think the moron would have doena bit of research first. At least got the uniform correct and some dates and times.

That's what makes me think he did it by himself. Whatever, he just made himself look like an idiot.

In all the noise and comments on the various blogs I was a little disturbed to see so many people (conervatives, judging by the site's content and the statements made there) think that our military is doing NOTHING wrong. They may not be doing what MacBeth says, but there are certainly documented cases of abuse and other misdeeds. Things that happen in every war ever known to man. The US military is not imune to these acts... but that doesn't make them right either. This is probably another thread. :whistling

I agree. Unfortunatly, the military is made up of people and some people do really bad things in the name of a good cause.
