    Observation, anonymous message-board poster. If you watch the video, the fake puppy flips end over end with no appendage moving, just as a stuffed animal would.

    So you practiced with stuffed animals. I'd stick with that story, too.

    Doesn't matter much if it's fake (well, except to the puppy). You still have U.S. servicemen, or impersonators of them, making a video that makes American soldiers look like savages. No doubt it's getting good play in the Middle East and elsewhere among people who are only too willing to believe it was a live puppy.

    Don't you also think that maybe the second guy (the non-thrower) and the cameraman might have actually objected a little more loudly if it was a real puppy?

    I love this "quote" in the story about the authenticity of the video:

    "Nice journalism," Ace told FOXNews.com. "You dimwits are real pros. But how you got several anonymous sources to say the exact same thing is intriguing."

    My first thought was that it was real, and i hope that mother fucker dies.

    If it was fake, which i hope it was, then why are you even making this video.

    The way I see it, these brave fellows are tossing the puppies over there so we don't have to toss them here.

    I would give that fucker a beating that would make what he saw at war pale by comparison. All the body armor in the world wouldn't protect him.

    Animal abuse is my emotional hot button. I could never watch the video, but accidentally saw a still on the CNN story and it left me shaken all day. Good thing I'm not in charge, because I'd give an act like this the death penalty -- not because I equate a puppy's death with a person's, but because I believe anyone capable of such a thing has absolutely nothing to add to humanity and doesn't belong among the rest of us.

    Just think if it were real.

    OK, if it's fake he just gets life in a PMITA prison for thinking of such a thing.

    I spoke to an expert, because he threw a number of cats to their death off a dam back in the day.

    He confirms: Fake.
