And yet the fuckers completely removed this part from the movie Black Hawk down and rather insulted Pakistani armed forces as can be seen in the last part where a Pakistani soldier is showing serving water to the so called brave US soldiers. This is classic example of twisting facts to suit a particular agenda. Most Americans would not even know that it was Pakistan that saved their asses on that day.

We shouldn’t have bothered to help knowing this would have been the result.

Why was a Pakistani with Army insignia specifically shown as a mess worker? If you look at the video the camera particularly highlights the flag part on his arm. The purpose was to humiliate. Even President Musharraf said that he was annoyed with this. As for thanking us, it does not matter what they do personally when publicly they are showing the exact opposite. The perception in the general public matters.
