I have seen a similar type of incident in a video that is supposed to be
a Iraqi wedding. Some guy fires a handgun into the air and his kid
gets hold of the gun and accidentally shoots the guy in the gut.

This goes far to explaining the "Predator takes out wedding party"
incidents in Afghanistan.

Perhaps, but I doubt they are good at differentiating a US Predator
missile strike from a Taliban RPG strike.

Yes, the Taliban have indeed attacked weddings with RPGs. One of the
many reasons they have to be eliminated.

Personally, I'd like to see them exterminated. I openly advocated
such before 9-11. When they blew up those Buddahs, that was the last
straw. Taliban/alQuaeda/affiliated groups should be slaughtered. In
pretty much every other way I am hardcore progressive, but I could
carve the hearts out of those folks 40 hours a week and sleep like a
baby.

--Bryan

Not nice folks. In the 70's , though, they were seen as the protectors of Afghanistan by us. They were the hope for democracy. Didn't call themselevs Taliban back then, but their offspring came out like that.

You don't want to sleep like a baby, man. Wake up every few hours with a crappy diaper, screaming.

They are nasty folks; like our poor youth who destroy for attention.

I think somebody here missed the point but the quotes are so mangled
that I can't tell who.

When there are Predators around, shooting at the sky can result in the
sky shooting back. In the experience of most US pilots, people shooting
automatic weapons into the air is an indication that they are trying to
hit something that is in the air, not that they are exhibiting high
spirits associated with a social event. So, they assume that those
bullets coming at their Predators are intended to hit it, and respond in
kind with vastly greater firepower.

So, Earth to Afghanis--if you want to enjoy your wedding night, make
sure that your trigger-happy pinhead relatives leave the guns at home.

It's not a matter of differentiating, it's a matter of "shoot at a
Predator, you and anyone standing near you dies". Shooting into the air
can be interpreted by the Predator driver as shooting at the Predator.
In Afghanistan and Iraq, if you shoot at the sky, expect the sky to
shoot back.

yeah, i'm sure all the civilian casualties from predator misles were
shooting machine guns into the air first.

According to Obama, we have no more combat mission in Iraq. There should be
no missiles on Predators here... according to *him*.

Meanwhile, in a story dated August 12 in today's Stars & Stripes, there's a
story about a group of al-Qaida thugs who smashed into a family home in Iraq
and shot the parents. Then they told the two young children to run to the
coalition checkpoint and tell the officials there what happened. When the
cavalry arrived on the scene and entered the house, the terrorists were no
longer there -- but they'd left a bomb behind, which detonated and killed
six more people.

According to him we're in economic recovery too. It's not his fault

We are indeed in an economic recovery, it is just a rather weak one and
varies quite a bit by region. Your area may well not be seeing much
recovery, but my area is indeed seeing a lot of economic activity, new
construction starts (both residential and commercial), new stores and
restaurants opening, job growth, etc.

No, he's right. The pilot[1] will act to protect the aircraft if he's under
fire. That may or may not mean returning fire; it depends on the Rules of
Engagement for that operation.

[1] Yes, they are called "pilots" and they wear flight suits for their
missions. One of them even showed up wearing a parachute once.
