[Video] 2,000 lbs. laser guided bomb lands in a crowd of ~50 armed insurgents

This clip shows video from a targeting pod used to direct a 2000-pound laser-guided weapon into a crowd of armed insurgents in the open in Fallujah. This demonstrates why the terms "crowd", insurgents" and "in the open" appear to require a re-write of the enemy's tactical manuals

Thanks to SDM for sending me the vid

I love the guy at the end: "whoa dude"

They should really learn not to run around the streets like a bunch of armed lunatics. It makes it too easy.

"whoa dude"...

personally, i'd have a speech ready.

i think it would've been hilarious if one guy had just said, real calm: owned.

They could have screamed allah ackbar and shot there puny AK's at the bomb as it came tumbling towards the earth. I can see it now...

Insurgent 1: Alli Babah! Look towards the heavens, it's a bomb from the evil people
Insurgent Leader: Let's scream at it
All Insurgents: ALLAH ACKBAR BALALALALLAALALALA I DECLARE JIHA-- *all insurgents explode*

It's pretty pathetic how stupid some of the insurgents are. I saw a thread where a suicide bomber tryed to destroy (yes...destroy) a bradley armored fighting vehicle with some explosives strapped to his chest. He blew himself up in front of the vehicle and all he wound up doing was spraying chunks of himself onto the front of it

Yeah, it's pretty crazy some of the stuff I've seen, like that guy trying to fire an RPG IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FUCKING ROAD getting torn apart by an M249.
Do these guys have a deathwish? Do they not understand the meaning of cover?!
