Ok can we just appreciate how much effort he puts into these videos 💕
High peoduction US propaganda 🤡
I do but its mixed feelings really.. As a Marine of "the time" the video of it all looks pretty cringe. Uniforms and gear look all fucked up. One dude running around in his skivvy shirt, everyone just wearing a LBV and not flak jackets, and when dude put a tourniquet on fellow marine he went into his Vietnam pack for his first aid kit.. which no.. just not it would have been on his flack jacket or LBV. It looks like a cheap Indian action movie lol. BuTTT that being said I guess I can appreciate the effort to tell the story.

1st class American soldiers leave no one behind!!✌️🇺🇲
It's marine
Marines don't leave no man behind
History will remember that In the first and second battles of Fallujah with their simple weapons and their small number against the strongest army in the world with the support of the coalition forces and the latest technologies,with planes and thus America knelt in a small village like Fallujah. Marines could not entrance asmall city 2003 until 2005

@@albarsalan3611 yes, the enemy was brave and fought ferociously. God bless you.
6:57 wtf that guy is using akimbo AK's, was that legit or were they just overacting in this?
😂 I’m late but oddly enough it’s not really a reach, they would even shoot backwards running and looking forward. Can’t make this shit up.
Honestly, the savages from the insurgent, and that area of the world are pretty dumb and aren’t very well-trained. They just believe weird propaganda and religious bull crap they don’t understand the technology or efficiency or ergonomics or anything. But I’m pretty sure in this case the rec dramatization was overreacting because that easily could’ve been taken care of via group of Marines. It must’ve been like. A perfect angle from like a murder hole or something. Because if it’s just a dude behind a barrel, come on. Plus fully automatic fire nonstop like that no way. The only thing most Directors know or TV show writers is things they see on call of duty or 80s Rambo movies.
Nevertheless, those men are heroes for going in there and saving each other, even jumping on grenade dang man
Fallujah is the cemetery of America
Small unit? At first yeah but come the end of hell House there were 50+ marines inside. That was a big structure.
It was a pretty typical house all things considered..

Regardless what certain people think of Fallujah. Americans aren't going to let insurgents attack the Blackwater group and after we are going to stand by and let the next one happen to another unit.
We were the invader & occupier.

"We basically laid siege to the entire city of Fallujah; destroyed like two thirds of the city; created like 200,000 refugees, & kil-led possibly up to 6,000 civilians. It was a really bad moment & I was part of that, unfortunately. I mean, this was absolutely catastrophic for the people living in Fallujah... The whole mission was kind of structured indiscriminately. Our command told us that there were no civilians in the city; that everyone we were going to face in the city were combatants. They told us they were hardcore te-rrorists & that was actually not true. There were 50,000 civilians still in the city because we did not allow military aged males to leave the city. Anyone from age 15 to 55 were not allowed to flee the city. So they were forced to stay in the city and make due & then we bom-bed the city very indiscriminately for the weeks leading up to the siege - to the actual ground siege. Then during the ground siege, we used indiscriminate weapons and indiscriminate tactics. An indiscriminate weapon for example being the white phosphorus which you'd drop from the sky & it comes down in these big fireballs that kinda drift in the wind & cover not a precise target but a big area of land & we also used tactics like reconnaissance by fire which is house to house fighting, so if you don't know what's in a house, if you don't know if there's fighters or if there's anybody at all in the house, you fire into it first & then if you hear screaming or moaning or whatever, you can be sure that there are people in there & we would assume that they were combatants & then we would bulldoze the house to the ground. If you heard nothing, it was probably safe to enter. By definition, that tactic is indiscriminate and it's a war crime & this is how we conducted ourselves during the 3 weeks of this operation."

The chess game is bigger than what it seems. People saying these were local people defending themselves. These were not they were fighters and supplies from Iran and othe places. In Fallujah you had Chechen fighters, last I checked Chechnya was Russian territory.
I’ll never ever condone what the actions of the US government during this time, but I have massive respect for these veterans. The things they experienced are unimaginable for both of us
we are yet to seem them in a fight against soldiers rather then civilians
Actually in Vietnam the communists attempted multiple conventional attacks which all resulted in their total destruction. During the battle of “The Tet Offensive”, the communists suffered ~50,000 casualties with only 216 marines dying. Explains why they hid the whole war and why every country will continue to. You can’t really win a guerrilla war because even though we slaughter them in battle, they will continue to fight for their cause until the last man and the American public will slowly grow tired
The way they are trained in those countries and terrorist cells…. I wouldn’t even call them soldiers either so that’s not really fair.

Looks like the enemy was using rubber bullets most of the time.
Nice special effects and action
The story where a lead sargent got shot in the face by 5 insurgents when he entered a room the other guys then realized he was shot dead they threw a grenade up in there and he got a PENTA KILL XD
is that real footage and videos?
Nah
This is a copy that you test at before you go overseas for combat. Like a week long. I cant remeber what its called though. Also walking up stairs you should move like the legs of a caterpillar with ur weapon being your point

Take it easy guys. the video is just a re-creation. its not actual footage and nobody shoots while exposing their whole body. the Iraqi's were irregulars with no body armor or training, just kids picked up from the street and handed an AK. I wonder how many of you remember LiveLeak, but there was plenty of insurgent footage there and those insurgents would only peek with the barrel of the gun and shoot completely at random vectors. if more of the insurgents were well equipped regulars then the casualties would be horrendous, bad enough as they were already.
LOL, ill do it again. Go ahead write your brain farts.
@@waschberserker Diminishing what? Creeping barrages? JDAM's? Taking pot shots at starved and wounded kids? GTFO
@@waschberserker Im not your daddy. you really dont need to fight for my attention
@@waschberserker Yeah I find it frustrating when people talk about Fallujah and Iraq in general without knowing about the historical facts. Also many of these insurgents were not angels just defending their country as some try to pain them here. They murdered plenty of their Iraqis such as Shias and Kurds. They were basically the primitive version of ISIS
discovery i'd hate to say it yall need better angles absolutely 0 Chance those marines come up the stairs and safely cross... not to mention when the marines mag dumped to cross into the room with injured the marines, the terrorists didnt even flinch (thats because their actors and they know its fake!)
No memtion of Sgt. Major Pruitt is nasty.....check?
Nor the name of so many other outstanding men or critical players. This was a very abbreviated/truncayed telling of a very complex Most Difficult Problem.
This’s just movie mate not real fight bro fallujah one of the worst fights ever
they were freedom fighters , liberators , defenders of their homeland . you were the enemy .the invader . the antagonizers.
Okay buddy. If that’s the lie you want to tell yourself. The county is shit. Was shit. And now will be shit for ever.
Yall sucked and continue to suck at war
The difference between freedom fighter and terrorist is the person speaking. This argument is right, wrong, and pointless all at the same time
The absolute fact is that many of these fighters in this house imcluded, were imports from Jordan etc. They were not fighting for their homeland. PS, i was one of the nine casualties in that house.
Wow... Taking cameras along to a gun battle ...thats a whole other level
It's nothing new, and this isn't real footage.
This is a recreation my dude.
they also bombed Fallujah with uranium bombs which then caused 12 fold increase in birth defects
You do know how big U bombs are right? There would be no Fallujah
Depleted uranium shells+
That’s a lie

This was most B movie recreation
every bullet is important aim first.
How much of this is fabrication?
That opening scene where they were out in the open lined up against a wall, with people in buildings and on roofs shooting at them, with fully automatic weapons, but somehow missing every single shot was a fabrication.
I know this because logic alone dictates it.
Not to mention that the first time I ever went to shoot a rifle, I was very surprised at how accurately I was able to hit those targets.
Later on I realized the reason for that, is because it is simply not that hard to shoot a gun straight.
Bullshit like this is exactly why people like me say his story, and not history.
And more likely story is they rounded that corner, saw a bunch of civilians and children, and open fire on them for the f*** of it, because that's how amerikkka and amerikkkan marines get down.
Actually you are the one assuming that in real life untrained insurgents are good shots. Insurgents missed all the time even in close quarters combat according to first hand Marine and Army accounts in Fallujah. Shooting a target from long distance isn't like the movies. Also the rest of what you said is pure nonsense. There are plenty of resources you can read about the actual battle of Fallujah you 🤡
