actually, according to the code of war, your not supposed to

use a .50 cal machine gun on humans.



I know if I heard a chopper and gunfire I wouldnt be

walking around like nothing happened thats for sure.

well i doubt youre supposed to be using a 20mm CANNON on humans either. but aparently they did.



and chopper fire might be scary to you but they were obviously used to it, it's iraq, where you either get used to it or get dead.

i dunno, I remember firing the .50 cal and being told it wasnt

for humans, but I seem to remember looking it up in the

geneva convention code and not finding

anything to support that. Keep in mind this was like 14 years ago,

so my memory could be wrong.



so in Iraq, after being fired upon by a chopper, and the chopper

stays there they just figure its ok to hang around and

relax?



where did the video come from?

like i said they probably werent right over the guys in which case the 50 cal isnt too accurate, if the chopper came in close they probably wouldve tried hiding better, they never saw the 20mm coming otherwise they wouldve probably ran far far away.

I remember there being sometalk about the damage caused to

a human body by the force of such rounds makes it an inhumane

form of warfare. its not listed specifically

but there is code about unhumane forms of war.

I'll bet they didn't even hear the helicopter. It was probably 1/2 - 3/4 mile away and silent running.. O' and I saw them shooting a Street, a tracked vehicle, a truck and a pickup... The humans were colateral damage..
