I very rarely down vote, but honestly what is the point of this? What lesson is to be learned from this? What value does this have? This is nothing more than a snuff film. War is death, and we as service members are the blunt instruments that the powers that be use to bring it to our enemies, but I don't ever recall the act of killing being a happy event and I question the sanity of those who find it as such.

Illustrates the capability of a very effective weapons system that can be available to ground commanders. If you know that an AH-64 can deliver rounds inside a 35m box at a couple kms then you know can understand how to employ that weapon safely and effectively.

In most cases where people die it's sad and tragic. There are cases, such as the death of radical muslims that brings a smile to my face.
What happened to western men in the last century? We grow soft as our enemies stay focused on their goals. We're screwed.

War is hell. It's not pretty. You may think this is a snuff film, but it's the reality of today's combat. If we can take out the enemy through air superiority (either bomb, .50 cal or missile) and keep our ground forces alive to fight another day, so be it! Kill the bastards! I've escorted too many fallen heroes to the base morgue to know that the ones responsible for that service member's death deserve anything coming to them.
