The story continues: The soldier located the source of fire about 75 meters to his 1200. A silver van was being used as a mobile sniper position. The interior was lined with mattresses to muffle the shots. It was occupied by the sniper, a spotter, and a driver. When the location was ID'd, the squad opened up on it wounding the sniper and spotter who fled on foot leaving a trail of blood. The driver was detained. Following the trail of blood, the sniper was found cowering in a private courtyard. The targeted soldier secured the prisoner before administering first aid. Damned Americans and their Nazi, gulag, Pol Pot tactics!How dare we treat terrorist prisoners better than the terrorists treat their own mothers.

Via email: "The video tape was taken from captured terrorist scum in Iraq - you've got to watch it. The footage was recorded by a terrorist sniper team (who were later captured by coalition forces, hence, we have the tape). It just came out of a briefing in Iraq in the last few days. In it, a Soldier takes a hit from a sniper square the chest - it knocks him right on his back, but the guy gets right back up again, aiming his rifle. It's amazing how fast he is back up on his feet; looking for a target. The best part is to hear the terrorists' voices in the clip. It's such a riot to listen to them chanting "Allah Akbar! Allah Akbar!" and then when the kid gets back up again, they're like '...huh? WTF just happened?!'" UPDATE: Original post pointing here comes from my main blog JACK ARMY
