Clearing up the supposed Aegis video?

I'd like to discuss in further detail some of the things relating to this video which has surfaced on the internet. First off, I don't hate America and I don't want the terrorists to win. Okay seriously now, I feel that some articles have been misleading with respect to the song that was playing with the video, Elvis Presley's Mystery Train. I think many people are under the impression that this song is playing while they are driving around but while they may have been listening to it as they went around, it was added after the video was shot as it plays continuously even with the camera's cuts. This also left me with the impression that a forensic audio analyst could potentially remove the song allowing us to hear what the radio and those in the SUV are saying. Could that be revealing as to the nature of the shootings? Probably. Was the song purposely used to mask what was being said? Get out your tin foil! In an e-mail conversation with a forensic audio analyst he/she said that the audio could be cleared up. Of course that would cost money and this lowly blogger has no money for expenses.

Do these pictures indicate that video was taken from different trucks, and possibly different people?

Probably not. I think the first picture just has the camera pressed up against the rear window. That black line at the top of the first picture is probably one of those defrost wires.

It's just too hard without some basic information to really understand what is going on here. The SUV could have been escorting a VIP, they could have been stone drunk. Maybe the people in the SUV were doing this to make the Iraq situation look bad and weren't contractors at all despite the European accents that are apparently audible. I'm not so sure of these accents by the way. But I also believe Seixon is being somewhat gullable in his detailed overview of the video.

Judge for yourself. But remember, how horrible can the situation in Iraq be if this type of defensive firing is actually a neccesity?
