And who did Aegus work for? US military?
No, damnit, get it right. They worked for the Coalition of the
Willing!
"Totally awesome video of US mercenaries"
Gee whiz, Andreas, you sound like a pre-pubescent boy! I know the
video's rad, but, dude, you need to hip your talk up or people won't
even bother to watch your walk.
M.C I, for one, don't think the video is either rad or awesome.
Instead, it's one of the most appalling things I've ever seen.
What's perhaps most appalling is that I'll bet it will be the cause of
more than a few enlistments. It looks just like a video game. What will
teenagers, who have spent most of their life watching video games,
think when they see this clip? Why, that they can go to Iraq, play the
utimate video game, get paid, and get called a hero on the evening news
if they happen to get blown up in the process.
