This is what war breeds.......-----graphic photos-----
I am so angry right now I cant even speak! I dont have enough angry words at my disposal to throw at this excuse of a human.
Can you help me tell this degenerate that he is a waste of carbon and that either the commentary on the pictures or this site should be taken down.

---------------------------------------------------------------------This site contains an archive of photos taken by soldiers serving in active duty. This site aims only to visually document their experiences and is not a political site. The name "Under Mars" is an homage both to Mars, the Roman God of War, and to the otherworldly nature of the experience.
If you'd like to add your photos to this archive, just email them to undermars@gmail.com along with any note you'd like included with them. Please only send photos that you took, or you know you have the permission of the photographer to send.

Credit and thanks for this site goes exclusively to the men and women who created the photos which are contained inside.

2. That was my reaction also
this stuff is so racist --

These soldiers have no business being there -- they can't tell the difference between the good guys and the bad guys.

There is a racist statement about Native Americans --

The only troops I support are the ones who refuse to participate in this illegal, immoral war.

3. I couldn't get past the first page.
I agree, this guy seems to be glorifying the horrific sights he sees. What truly frightens me is this mindset that will come 'home'. What kind of life will this human scum live, and how much more havoc will he create here? I understand PTSD to a certain extent because my bro-in-law still suffers from it as a consequence of VN, but this 'person' doesn't seem to have a shred of compassion. Very disturbing.

5. Those captions are disgusting!
Anyone who can find 'humor' in those pictures is mentally ill. IMHO. :puke:

19. yes, truly. because they are not even sure that these people are
insurgents. I don't see a lot of weapons in those pictures, but I guess just being a native in your own country is enough for an american to kill you. sad shit.

6. besides the photos
the captions are DISGUSTING. This just shows what happens to nice kids in a war. They become so numbed by the depravity of the entire thing that they become if not worse than the enemy the same.

24. I agree! Send them with the captions to the media!
We have a problem when we have psychos with high powered weapons on the loose.

WHO posted those captions? We should be up in arms if it was a solider. GET HIM OFF THE BATTLE FIELD and into a psych ward. NOW

9. Demonization of the other
is a soul-stealing fascist tactic. I'm wondering how bad this mentality will spread its sickness when it comes home?

Disgusting.

11. It's already here.
Just listen to the way some people talk about Bush, Rove, and Freepers... not to mention how they talk about us.

17. The man who wrote this caption, might be your new neighbor
IF he makes it back from Iraq.


oo, ooo, pick me

This person is obviously seriously disturbed and should be reported. IF he is a soldier, his commanders should be alerted. He may well pose a threat to his fellow soldiers if he is this mentally ill, not to mention is high risk to committ war crimes.

We should send a link to this site to the military.

10. Would someone else please confirm a domain search?
I get a woman from Canada but it's the first search I've ever done.

Good God, this is a horrible site.

16. omg, this is the same site bush talked about
....The Department of Defense has now been asked to investigate a Web site being used by U.S. soldiers to post gruesome pictures of Iraqi war dead. On its homepage, the site, in operation for more than a year, labels itself as "an online archive of soldiers' photos." The Web site contains dozens of pictures of decapitated and limbless bodies; even more disturbing, many of the photos feature tasteless captions, reportedly sent in by the soldiers themselves. Captions include "plastic surgery needed," "road kill" and "I said dead." .....

sorry for the "sorry" link-
http://www.washtimes.com/upi-breaking/20050127-020713-2712r.htm

Yeah, the DoD is right on this. Don't they have Google? :scared:

13. That's a good insight to how they deal with it
Like people are bugs you just pull apart and get your hands dirty from.

Of course, Bush never saw any of that. God chose him to bypass the military, bail on the Guard, and go right to Commander in Chief.

18. It's important someone takes these pictures
Edited on Thu Jan-27-05 06:55 PM by superconnected
though, to show us how sick.

I used to think it's unimaginable how one human can hurt another. But that only kept my eyes closed. Now I see people demanding blood, when I don't see the actually photos. All I have to do is read the latest speeches and the vindictive news.

IE the media suggesting killing the suicidal guy that caused the trainwreck.

20. " I sent my nice boy to war and they sent me back a killer"
quote from the Mother of a very disturbed Vietnam Veteran as told to Seymour Hersh. I assume the same applies today.

22. It's not the pictures that are the real problem,
it's the disturbing captions. WTF is wrong with whomever wrote the captions? Did our soldiers write these captions? If so, they are high risk to commit war crimes or turn on their own.

ANYONE who can joke about a dead child who was brutality murdered is demented.
