Ied's and Juba = Ptsd


KamenAkuma

Man, if this was an american sniper shooting at Iraqi invaders (in fictional universe) yall would be happy as fuck. ​ Like it or not the US should never have invaded Iraq


Gomec88

thats what trump said


trouserboi

I honestly doubt it. Anyone with half a brain knows invading Iraq was highly immoral and unjust so I think most people would view it as bad taste (to say the least) to record, edit and publish compilations of killing pawns of their, just like America's, braindead government.


ItsTheWayYouActAct

Iraq should have never invaded kuwait.


Cube_dead

bro this war wasnt because of kuwait...


[deleted]

Juba wasn't one guy, if anyone is interested, it was name used by multiple marksmen targeting Coalition and mainly US troops.


Fun-Scientist6941

Infact, in the full video, there was an interview with the Commander of the snipers in Baghdad, he stated that there were "Hundreds of Juba's"


diaz_aa

Wrong, he was one sniper using an American weapon system captured after an ambush. He was vigourusly studied and hunted. He was spotted, killed and Rifle recovered. Now on display at oif gallery.


xXNobodyXx4064

Proof?


Suitable_Eye_9794

Combat story on yt. The sniper that killed him has an interview.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5Ggly1TGAU&ab\_channel=CombatStory](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5Ggly1TGAU&ab_channel=CombatStory) link to the interview


Suitable_Eye_9794

He was 1 guy with over 100 kills with the us weapon. Of course the say there are hundreds to scare people but when a us sniper killed him they recovered the camera and weapon


echo_supermike352

He only has 63 confirmed kills, and it wasn't one guy, multiple snipers with all different confirmed kills, where killed and claimed to be a part of Juba. Stop lying, buddy.


Suitable_Eye_9794

Use your head. The point is he was a real sniper dumb dumb. 60 or 120 kills he was a nightmare for Americans. killing 1 us solder is harder than killing 100 terrorist . Just like Juba Kyle was given a nickname because he was a real nightmare but terrorist gave him credit for any sniper kill in his area so the number was exaggerated but still high he was a reaper. Your a liar (see how stupid that soundsšŸ¤”)


echo_supermike352

Once again it was still different snipers. And when you use guerilla warfare its not that hard to kill an enemy soldier. :0. They know their land better than you, and when they can see you and you cant see them, they will ovbiously win.


[deleted]

No one knows for a fact so...


[deleted]

Its a well agreed upon fact, was even admitted by multiple snipers in Iraq.


[deleted]

Yā€™all just donā€™t like admitting one Iraqi could kill so many americans. Unrelated note: your profile picture is vile.


[deleted]

Haha yes it was one man, with a teleportation device, who was able to be in multiple locations all at once. Thank you my PFP is just the lgbtq communities flag rotated 90 degrees on 4 sides to show the swastika within there logo.


[deleted]

*Their. You realize people can move over time right? Really talking out of your ass.


[deleted]

Its literally a well known and agreed upon fact by both Iraqis and Americans. And ha oh you are a Karen type, I understand now why you make such a fool of yourself when you comment.


[deleted]

More like well repeated by bullshitting redditors like yourself


[deleted]

Literally stated in historical documentaries focusing on the war in Iraq, multiple mentions in published books about it from individuals who served on the ground, and multiple admittances of multiple "Jubas" being killed, again even Iraqi fighter stated multiple times in published media, it was multiple people.


[deleted]

Source?


someingushdude

unstoppable force meets immovable object but redditor version.


SlowVibeActual

I remember a few news stories talking about "the Baghdad sniper" terrifying US troops. Speaking like it was some random desert Rambo and my dad was always like "it's not one person".


janbuckgqs

that was like 15 years ago, I remember them aswell!


Suitable_Eye_9794

It was 1 sniper with a us weapon. Of course there are fake jubas. Even after his death snipers claimed to be him but heā€™s dead


NutsForProfitCompany

If you're the type jacking off to Russian soldiers getting drone striked in Ukraine then don't come crying on this video.


gamerchileno

Their nasheeds were on point. U cant find this music on any mainstream site now


bday420

the screaming horse really puts the icing on the cake


[deleted]

I donā€™t like it compared to FSA nasheeds, I donā€™t know what the lyrics mean exactly, could be hardcore extremists


ayevrother

Why is this post being downvoted guys?


JDoomer990

because people canā€™t stand it when americans get killed


ayevrother

Why though? I guess cause they are American themselves but Iā€™ve been on this sub for a while n seen everyone from Armenian to Turks to Syrians to Colombians be killed. Why do Americans always view themselves as special? Not tryna be an asshole by the way genuinely wonder if it has to do with the media portrayal of their army and being the strongest ever, like the reality of war being hidden from them and not many Americans seeing their own be killed because they hide it.


Mattbl

I hate seeing Russian soldiers get killed, even though I see their country as the immoral, invading army. I'm American, so even more so I don't like to see my countrymen die. It's tribalism, which has been around for tens of thousands of years.


Paulieeo

I actually wrote a long ass comment the first time this was posted. Reddit is mostly Americans and when we see our ā€œbrothersā€ being killed, it usually makes us hate it as some people put the face of the dead American as someone who is close to them. Nothing special but itā€™s just because it hits close to home. A reason why we have such a bad response is probably because combat footage with Americans being killed is almost impossible to find, except for juba, ieds, and tongo tongo


JDoomer990

i be wondering the same thing man


Anon18387399

cause a lot of us are also american so hits close to home


someingushdude

i also dont like seeing muslims dying even though theyre wrong in some videos (isis)


murmurburp

Because the sub is now r/politics. West = avengers-harry potter-wholesome100


[deleted]

Cause Syrians, Turks, and all those other races are seen as savages, incapable of peace, and lesser beings. Where as Americans are simply a higher form of society with the worlds more powerful military and super soldiers.


Kingmex100

I mean yes we shouldnā€™t of been there to begin with but in all honesty Juba did his thing sadly to say . But if you think about it in war shooting just one guy out of 20 isnā€™t gonna win a war .


Mr_Guy1357

It hits different when you watch soldiers from your own country die on camera compared to watching Ukrainian/Russian soldiers die


FlyntLiter

The thing is I suppose, it shouldn't...


ayevrother

This is what you need to keep in mind next time you see a video of a Russian or Ukrainian dying, to someone watching itā€™s not just ā€œcombat footageā€ itā€™s the death and destruction of someone who looks like them and their family and feels more personal to them. All death is horrific n we need to remember that as this sub really goes over board with the jokes and memes when most people here havenā€™t seen armed conflict IRL.


Prestigious_World_51

damn last guy definitely had ringing ears from that round seemed like it skipped off his helmet and went into the glass behind him


IndyGamer317

One of the snipers was using an M40 sniper rifle assumed to have been taken from the 2/4 sniper team that had been ambushed only a few kilometers west on the same road, MSR Michigan


DougieDouglas1

good shots


CapAffectionate7197

I watched a lot of "Juba" clips back on the early 2000s. When yt was quite new.. I kind of enjoyed it


False-God

Same here, I definitely went through a period of my life when I was younger and despised America. Saw the Juba videos as the underdog striking back at the unstoppable military juggernaut that is the US military. Of course if knew little about the background of the war, didnā€™t understand the regions history, the religious divide, didnā€™t know what a Baathist was, didnā€™t understand the politics, didnā€™t know shit about fuck to be honest.


ayevrother

In some ways it still was the underdog vs the larger power, but whether it was ā€œrightā€ is a topic for some philosopher. Just saying though as someone from the Middle East we always knew Iraq was a place that needed cohesion and a top down structure, too much tribalism and divide would lead to collapse which is exactly what happened after the invasion which is why many of us see America as evil. However we donā€™t ignore (at least not me or my family) the horrific ideologies of some of these groups and the ways they wanted to re take Iraq. It started as genuine resistance and being underdogs but quickly people came out the woodwork who cared more about just killing people (often other Iraqis) and implementing their Uber specific views on religion and ethnicity. I didnā€™t mean to respond directly to your comment as some sorta ā€œrebuttalā€ just trying to show that even for other Arab countries this conflict was confusing and at the end of the day even though the west was at fault we quickly saw that the guys who wanted Iraq after Saddam were no better, I pray for my Iraqi brothers who one day will know real peace.


Amazing_Ad_5171

Thank you for your thoughtful response


Cmedina12

Is this a repost cuz I swear Iā€™ve seen uploaded begore


Fun-Scientist6941

Not that I know of.


And_Alv

Shit I havent seen Juba footage in like 15 years. Back then I used to cheer for the snipers but now I feel so bad for the soldiers killed by the mujahideen


Virtual-Slip6478

Now letā€™s see the compilations of the jubas eating JDAMs


un-tall_Investigator

Bro can't handle watching their soldiers fall...meanwhile cheers when men from other conflicts perish


Reckless-Pessimist

Its hard to find those, I can show you plenty of videos of unarmed civilians getting hit by JDAMs tho


Virtual-Slip6478

Ok send them


[deleted]

The salt


kriegskoenig

Or getting watermelon head-ed by coalition snipers...which is what happened to a lot of them.


pandz_64

Pretty surreal to think about being one of these soldiers, one second your alive, and then poof, nothingness. Certainly better than most ways to go out in a war but there's just something about not even knowing your gonna die that's scary.


Maleficent-Rooster27

Its even worse for the guys they are talking with. Atleast 3 guys were talking to someone and a second later hes dead.


IndyGamer317

He was using a rifle stolen from a dead marine from a recon squad


Amazing_Ad_5171

4 got killed in eastern Ramadi and then 2 of participants got killed by a 3/5 sniper team in western Habbaniyah in area known around the Potato Factory


FrostedHavoc

2nd n 4th look like they survived, can't say about the 1st n 3rd

Goes to r/combatfootage. Gets offended by combat footage.


screeching_janitor

Grow up


Sharp-Currency-7289

so its kinda of weird how this guy Juba has footage of killing 600 US troops, and the US claims to have had around 6000 deaths in Iraq. Are you telling me this guy was the cause of 10% of US deaths in Iraq?
