Under the scrutiny of the US Department of Defense were two video clips posted on
YouTube video service and, as reported by
CNet , are able once again to show American soldiers stationed in Iraq in an unfavorable light.
The video recordings depicted scenes of bullying of military personnel over Iraqi children and teenagers. In
one of the commercials, the soldiers complained that the Iraqi children should not be killed, and in the
other , uniformed men would tease the boys running behind the car with a bottle of water.
The case when YouTube has helped expose violators of the law is not the only one. Previously, videos posted on this site allowed Los Angeles authorities
to open a criminal case against two police officers.
