Default Hmmm...

I know that the clip jumps over the course of a few secons, but I figure thats just to edit out some of the bull to make it a bit shorter for bandwidth purposes or maybe he said the name of his unit or named something else that was security sensitive, but its obvious that what he spoke of was all in the same context.

As for Bush and others not seeing the other nations as men is true from what I saw in Afghanistan. We knew immediately after 9/11 no one was going to question us and when we saw a convoy of what could have been Taliban or Northern Alliance we didnt hesitate to blow it up. Some in Intel argued the fact they could have been allies but we didnt take the time to see if they had a white marker on their vehicles signifying that they were friendlies, had they been white allies like the Aussies or Brits Im sure we would have.
