This isn't a clip from The Exorcist or a Freddy Kreuger movie. It's what they did to a businessman whose so-called crime was being in the wrong place at the wrong time while trying to help Iraq restore its communications infrastructure. Refusing to watch it won't make it go away. Watching it helps you come to terms with the people (I use that term loosely) we're fighting are like, and why they need to die.

Back in WWII, we bombed Germany and Japan into oblivion, then helped rebuild them into countries vastly superior to what they were. And it worked beautifully. They're both prosperous countries who are now allies of ours, thanks to us giving them a government that emphasizes capitalism and individual freedom.

Now that this country is so fucking spineless, the only thing we do is take just enough action to annoy our enemies with bullshit "liberation missions", which just causes our soldiers to die and prevents us from ever getting to the rebuilding stage.
