Because we've all thought about it.
Only British imperialists have wet dreams over this.

[ÑóẊîöʼn]

You're boring.

[Le Libérer]

Actually I watched it on the telly a couple of weeks ago. I had no doubt of the outcome.

[Pogue]

I didn't either. I doubt they could ever get away with showing a victory for the Taliban on US tv. I think its hilariously ridiculous a programme and I felt obliged to share it.

[Angry Young Man]

Not like as good as Screen/Newswipe.

"Unemployment now so huge that it has to be portrayed by plummeting monolithic arrows!"

Or, with a catholic on the news talking about how johnnies made AIDS worse, it cuts back to Charlie and he just mutters 'fuck me! Now, there's always been...'

Maybe, but I was fairly entralled by it. There was a great build up on the different weapons close and far range. Plus it made for good theater.

Capitalist clap trap shockingly misguided piece of TV. No doubt in my mind if the RA or the IRPS went head to head with Islamic Fundamentalists they would be destroyed(Irish republicans would be destroyed) lol the thought of it lol.
People who are prepared to sacrifice there life’s in martyrdom attacks compared with soldiers who would prefer to be treated under the terms of the Geneva Convention.
No comparison.

[Misanthrope]

Anyone see the spetsnaz vs green beret one?:D

My bet's on the soldiers. They're the ones that know that the trick isn't dying for your cause, it's making the other bugger die for his. :laugh:

In the Spetsnaz v.s Green Beret episode, the Americans were beat by the Russians. On an American TV show. If the Americans can lose, then why couldn't the Taliban win?:confused:

[khad]

show's rigged

[Misanthrope]

Meh, I'm not really into military and weapons and such. It was just really cool seeing those Russians standing in front of the hammer and sickle calling the Americans pussy and then actually winning the simulation thing. :thumbup1:

[Revy]

I don't see why we should take it seriously.

The show is called "Deadliest Warrior" and it resides on the silly premise they can "predict" who would win in a fight. Their audience is not looking for accuracy.

I was told about this a few weeks ago. Watched it on Charlie Brooker's new show on Channel 4 last night and was doubled over laughing my ass off. For no reason a volunteer is just standing in a carpark with a flame thrower. Charlie Brooker's show is awesome btw, but I bet most people will hate him slating their favourite shows.

[K.Bullstreet]

Instant win! :)

[Intifadah]

I remember well the local ASU setting up road blocks and waiting in ambush for the Brits to roll up the street in a few Saracens, only to unleash hell with their....slingshots :huh:

An amazing leave yer brain at yer arse show

[Communist Theory]

The Spetsnaz vs. Green Beret was better.

One Spetsnaz operative killed all the Green Berets.

[Stranger Than Paradise]

Yeah I watched that Charlie Brooker show last night. Fucking brilliant.

[K.Bullstreet]

Up the RA!

[OneNamedNameLess]

The youtube comments for this one must be absolute classics. Don't know if I can be arsed reading them though.

[Dr Mindbender]

I'd love to see this clip make it to british TV (no chance).

The bit with the IRA guy and a flamethrower was lulzworthy. :lol:

I dont think they'd fight each other though. Probably join forces against the makers of this footage.

[PRC-UTE]

depends on which RA Active Service Unit you pick... ASU's from the South Armagh Brigade were able to skirmish with British troops, and take on larger forces without even taking casualties, much like the Taleban. Most other RA ASU's would've been destroyed by the Taleban.

funny show anyway, I enjoyed the spetcnaz v Green berets as well. saw one of the clips from that show on youtube with William Wallace that was class

btw, flamethrowers have a longer effective range, and don't explode if you shoot em. there's no sparking from the perforation of a lead bullet.

That sounds a lot like a youtube comment.;)
