yeah, it is messed up to do that to little kids.

I can also see where they are coming from though.

You see your friends and comrades in arms get blown up/shot/killed and you start blaming the people living in that country for you being there. Taunting is one way to relieve a little frustration...it's an [censored] move, but I can see why they might do it.

I witnessed it a few times, this was mild.

Should have seen what they'd do to Somalis looking for MREs.

We never did that in Kosovo, but as soon as you stop somewhere, the kids are attacking you wanting water or an MRE. When we gave out clothes, they would surround you like a herd of wild animals.

I actually found that video funny, but I was in the military and know what it is like. If that makes me a bad person, oh well.

That's so [censored] up and gets me so angry grrr...Yeah sure there's so much [censored] stuff going on in Iraq but don't take it out on the kids totally unnecessary.

You know, my first thought when I saw this video was the only way anyone could justify to themselves doing what these soldiers are doing is if they totally dehumanized the people of that country. You seem to have proved that point to a certain degree.
