I saw what you saw, but also several young Iraqi boys, perhaps teenagers, shaking hands with US soldiers, apparantly thanking them, etc.
If you're disappointed by the whatever positivity that does come out of this war, then you're pathetic yourself.

It was declared over and over that our soldiers would be welcomed into Iraqi cities by the populous while the ill equipped and starving soldiers would lay down their arms and surrender before our mighty military.
Liberation is not 6 sand ****** wanting a drink of water.
And with the way the government media machine likes to put a spin on things, if that is the best video they can come up with proving that our soldiers are receiving the heros welcome that they were told would be awaiting them, then they have failed. miserably. If they had any better video, they would be using it.
Again, a video of 6 camel jockies (in Southern Iraq I might add) does not equal a mighty liberation.
I could make a video of the same effect if I walk into a bar and offered to buy everyone a drink. Am I a liberator?
You are easily amused and even more easily led along. Good boy.
