#2 Sorry about the multiple post but what is this stupid "Roadside America" crap that keeps popping up when I hit "Submit Query?"

#3 It's the website where suspicious posters are redirected to by the blog's intricate inner workings, though your post actually made it, since you are a regular, but you got a taste of the owner's peculiar taste in tourism & humor anyway.

#4 Apparently "basic first aid" doesn't appear in the Hamas police academy syllabus.

#5 Usually I hate liveleak videos because they're blocked by the Great Firewall of China, but I'm home for the holidays so I can actually see this one.

I suppose it never enters people's minds that certain sites are blocked outside of America.

Yeah, but they do say "allah" quyite a bit, and even seem to have gunsex on the side, so, that's pretty close; plus, they jump great through firy loops. Anyway, heartwarming vid (but I'm a bigot), only thing missing is the IAF taking a leaf out of the paleo playbook, and targeting the rescuers with a strafing run or something. Oh, well. Can't have EVERYTHING, I guess.

Yup, but LL is usually the first vid website to have content like that, it shows eventually on youtube, but later. So, often some websites are used because it's where the goodies are. Enjoy your vacation, by the way!

My personal preference would be a CS gas bomb as a follow-on. Not lethal, but enough to keep medics away for a little bit more of that golden hour.

#9 From the kind of treatment seen on the video, the best way to increase lethality might be to let the terrorist "medics" in. Some of those jihadis are still alive but not for long if they continue to be thrown about and hauled around like so many sacks of potatoes.

#10 Picking up the dead and wounded will be good for the survivors. They just may come to appreciate the danger of the vocation and of punk bravado.

He probably wasn't till those idiots moved him. Is there a word (probably german) for Sympathy without compassion?

#20 Well speaking from experience, there isn't a first aid procedure in the books that will offer any survivability after being cut in half by flying schrapnel or being decapitated.
Just the shock wave from a 1000 pounder on a building will break every bone in your body and turn your insides into mush if you are too close.
Sorry guys but that's life in the fast lane.
Mess with a military power that has 21st century hardware when you only have a few zillion AK's and some Rpg's and you are going to find yourself gathering your dead.
I have no sympathy for these people because they would be setting off suicide bombers and dropping rockets in Time Square if they could get to us.

#21 Last night I ran an errand on my wife's behalf. My job was to drop off a roaster to her brother in advance of his New Year's Day party.

My brother-n-law is the product of a liberal education and, therefore, pro-terrorist and anti-semite.

I gave him the roaster then handed him some candy. He asked why the candy? I told him I was just doing a poor imitation of the paleos that handed out candy throughout the neighborhood on 9-11.

He knew exactly what I was referring to, but wasn't amused.

Heh.

#25 Yup, just normal combat zones scenes. This ought to be shown on Al-Jizz in a 24 hr loop so the Brave Lions could see what happens when you go out and play with rockets and mortar tubes. It's called payback.

#26 The 24 hr loop should include footage of the Palestinians celebrating on 9/11.

Payback is a motherf**ker!

Golly, James, I think you're the first Rantburger who admits to posting from the Great Beyond. Mr. Pruitt, I think your website has set another record!

Actually, it appeared to me that the first and second bodies, at least, are actually the same person: picked up, dropped, then given the chance to moan for the camera. Perhaps some of Rantburg's expert visual analysts can confirm/deny whether the Palestinians are up to their usual tricks, camera-wise.

#30 Maybe I'm desensitized, but it occurs to me that this stuff is gory only if you've never prepared meat for consumption. Or - for the TV generation - watched CSI, or shows like Nip/Tuck.

Call me prudish if you will, but I didn't think it was suitable for kids or the squeamish, and was worthy of a stern warning.

Don't get me wrong - the warning might be a good idea. The interesting thing, though, is that the Palestinians aren't exactly puking their guts out at the sight of the wounded and dead. I have to wonder whether the Hollywood depictions of human reactions to this kind of stuff - gunplay, violent death - is just so much overacting.
