War-The Newest Pornography-Sex-Bombs-Burgers
Read Time:49 Second
Combat footage from Iraq and Afghanistan has generated a new form of online porn, Newsweek reports, with tens of thousands of spliced-together clips—soundtracks added—drawing millions of views on YouTube, and enthusiasts creating sites with names like GotWarPorn.com. “Like sexual porn,” writes Jessica Ramirez, “they come in degrees of violence, ranging from soft-core montages of rocket-propelled grenades blowing up buildings to snuff-film-like shots of an insurgent taking a bullet to the head.”
It all started with Abu Ghraib, when images with obvious “pornographic sensibility” went viral on the web. Soldiers began swapping war footage for sexual porn, the founder of a user-generated porn site reports, with the content getting more and more extreme—filled with headless corpses and body parts. The Week rounds up opinion on whether public access to graphic footage serves a purpose—to make war more real—or inspires violence. One military blog notes that it works well as propaganda for our enemies.

I’ve often wondered if Crawford Caligula pleasured himself watching his personal copy of the Saddam hanging.
I’d read about this awhile back. Comments lifted from one of these sites detailed what might be a typical entry; a pretty Iraqi woman had a leg blown off following a US attack, which had left her lower body exposed.The cretins were commenting on the woman’s sexual parts.
Like the majority of internet users I’ve seen porn sites – genuinely out of curiosity as it happens, I’m quite happy with my wifey thank you very much.
I have, however, only ever seen er…respectable porn?
This is getting sicker and sicker.
“Have you seen necro porn?” asked an Asian neighbour – what made him think I’d want to is quite a worry really.
It can’t be stopped you know. Not without censorship and, as lovers of free speech I guess we have to accept that, sometimes we don’t like what’s said….or in this case, seen.
I pity the people who get enjoyment(?) in this way. So very very sad.
