Pakistan Army Brutality against Swat Civillians.

THIS VIDEO IS NOT SUITABLE FOR MINORS:PLEASE DO NOT VIEW. Pakistani Army bruitally assaulting innocent Pashtun civillians, The people in the video are being interogated Pakistani style.  The first man in the video is a vegetable and fruit stall owner,who is trying to explain to the officer that he is just an ordinary stall owner selling grocery he has no connection with the Talibans nor has he been involved with any of their activities. But as can be seen by this video the Army Officer is talking to him in URDU while the man trys his best to answer him but being URDU is not his Mother Tongue, He is having difficulty in trying to explain to the officer, while at the same time there are Pashtun Officers and translators around, they do not intervene to question him in his own language i;e PASHTO.  The Army Officer asks him about some people, as the man does not know, he says he did not know if those people mentioned were Talibans or not, where upon five Ass Holes..I mean officers jump on this poor man and assault him on camera, not once but four times,they only pause for a short while to take rest before they start their beatings. While at the same time the mans pleas are heard but fall on deaf ears.

The 1st brutal video I ever seen.

The July 12, 2007 Baghdad airstrikes were a series of air-to-ground attacks conducted by a team of two United States Army AH-64 Apache helicopters in Al-Amin al-Thaniyah, in the district of New Baghdad in Baghdad, during the Iraq War.
In the first strike "Crazyhorse 1/8" directed 30mm cannon fire at a group of nine men, one had an AK 47 and another an RPG-7; most were unarmed; two were war correspondents for Reuters; Saeed Chmagh and Namir Noor-Eldeen, whose cameras were mistaken for weapons. Eight men were killed, including Noor-Eldeen. Chmagh was wounded.
The second airstrike using 30 mm fire was directed at Chmagh and two other unarmed men and their unmarked van as they were attempting to help Chamgh into the van.Two children inside the van were wounded, three more men were killed, including Chmagh.
In a third airstrike the "Bush" helicopter team fired three AGM-114 Hellfire missiles to destroy a building after they had observed men enter, some of whom appeared to be armed.
The attacks received worldwide coverage following the release of 39 minutes of classified cockpit gunsight footage in 2010. Reuters had unsuccessfully requested the footage under the Freedom of Information Act in 2007. The footage was acquired from an undisclosed source in 2009 by the Internet leak website WikiLeaks, which released a shorter, edited version on April 5, 2010, under the name Collateral Murder. Recorded from the gunsight Target Acquisition and Designation System of one of the attacking helicopters, the video shows the three incidents and the radio chatter between the aircrews and ground units involved. An anonymous US military official confirmed the authenticity of the footage.
