Tough situation for the guys. Unfortunately one of those children will probably huck a grenade in to a truck and then all hell will break loose. Just a rotten situation all around.

Very sucky situation on all sides. The kids are probably mad because these troops are all over, and their parents ae probably frustrated, or possibly the parents support insurgency and anti-US thoughts. So the kids pick up on it and they act like that.

I can understand the soldiers must be annoyed since they're doing their jobs, with the intention of trying to help Iraq, but to want to Shoot them... come on. As if that wouldn't make their lives even WORSE? Killing kids that are throwing rocks... kids throw rocks at cars in the US too, at their own fellow citizens. If someone shot kids for that there'd be a huge uproar.

It's a no win argument, both sides are frustrated and at each others' throats. It's sad.

If a kid ever threw a rock at my car, broke my windshield, and I had an M16A2 handy, I'd shoot a few warning shots. If it happened again, I'd shoot the fucker. These guys are risking their lives to save those fucking kids. At least let them throw rocks back! Maybe deadly force is not necessary, but some sort of diciplinary measures should be taken.

Everyones gonna die sometime. SO. Therefore its about quality of life. AND since those kinda actions promotes aggressive behavior throughout the rest of their lives... most likely if a couple of those little bastards were run over while throwing rocks then it'd stop and the rest of em would probably lead much more productive and healthy lifestyles. So. Accidentily run over a couple of em and no more broken windshields. It not like they could hate us any more than they already do.
