Regarding sites like Myspace and Youtube, please immediately bring any offensive videos to PETA?s attention by e-mailing us at Info@peta.org. We require a direct link to the video and to the poster?s Web page. Do not post angry comments, and do not complain to the social-networking or video-sharing site about the video, as it might remove the video before PETA has the opportunity to investigate. As a precaution, please download the video and save the Web page/user profile so that PETA can be sure to view both. After our investigation, we will petition the site to remove the video and delete the user?s account.

I usually don't care too much for PETA, but I think they are best equipped for determining if the video is real or not.

Reported.

Just like Abu Ghraib.

Because we know our soldiers are not killing machines; they are lovable, huggable bunnies.

In all the time I spent in the army I never personally met anyone that would do this.

But go ahead and smear hundreds of thousands of soldiers for the actions of one, or a few.

That's what small minds are best at doing anyhow.

Don't take jpeyton too seriously...he hates the United States and would like nothing more than to see our country fail in every possible way.

too late

Abu Ghraib? Seriously? I'm supposed to feel bad about that?

Can't believe I watched it, but I'm not convinced it's a real puppy, either. I've held probably a hundred puppies by the scruff of their necks (we raised bird dogs when I was a kid), and I've never seen one that was totally motionless like that. They're fairly still most of the time, but if you swung them around, like when he went to throw it, at least their legs should drop down.

And the yelping could have been added in later.

Anyway, I hope it wasn't a real puppy. If so, the soldier needs to be brought up on some charges.

That's the kind of soldier who rapes and kills a family.

Trying to equate the two is the part that is unbelievable.

Not necessarily. The torture and killing of animals has long been noted as one of the warning signs of possibly psychopathy and is an early warning sign psychiatrists would take very very seriously as a possible first step to true psychopathy and the killing of innocent people.

Where's the original thread? Also, isn't there a private company or organization that goes over there to help the military? I seem to remember news stories about this company (I think the company is called Blackwater?). Their employees dress in uniforms similar to the military's right?

That's fucked up. IF it's real, and I can't see anything that says it's NOT real, then the guy needs to be brought up on charges and court martialed.

However, even though it does look like a real puppy to me, I can't tell if he's a real soldier of if that part is faked.

There are lots of deserty areas that look like that...no distinguishing landmarks to say where it took place.

(hmm, video's not loading anymore...)

Video still loads for me.

That looks all too real to me. The pup not moving is the same I've seen with pups and kittens I've picked up that way (much to the horror of my friends who claim to love animals, but don't know shit about them) It's not a doll, and it's not already dead or it would either have the legs hanging limp or be completely stiff, neither being the case.

I'm not really buying this video.

It randomly shows up on a dutch site? The guys have no distinct uniform or markings. The voices don't really match up with the mouth.
What gives a US soldier the idea it's smart to upload a video of themselves killing an animal on film to a dutch media site?

The video is grainy so it's hard to see much detail. I'm not sure how anyone could actually determine if the dog is real/fake alive/dead.

Someone kick the OP for posting obvious flamebait material.
