Wow
I was flabbergasted when I saw it during the broadcast. I went online and searched and no one said anything about it I thought I was the only one that saw it. WTF crazy fucking Japanese. If we had a video of Hiroshima and Nagasaki getting shit bombed it would cause a major fucking kerfuffle.

They wouldn't have played that intro if Mr. Don Frye was on the card
Best Don Frye highlight eva: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3rely_don-the-predator-frye_fun/
would it be equally as classy for SF to use Hiroshima images?

So next time FEDOR is kicking your ass, don't be offended or hurt, he may be just trying to tell you he likes your hat.
kind of...they lost so they're only making themselves look stupid....

Exactly
The reason they are using it is because U.S. will win this war as well.
Btw
I’m surprised this is just getting some attention.
I was kinda shocked when I saw this stuff on the nick diaz fight.
I can't believe I didn't notice it in the lead up to the Diaz/Mach fight

Funny coming from a Canadian, jay.

Imagine
Pakistan 50 years from now, using images from 9/11 as means to advertise an event. As JH said, classy org right there.
That makes more sense than Iraq

It actually wasn't any country
It was the taliban which is a terrorist group and which is spread through out the middle east and supported by many of those “countries’” government’s.

I'm sure the Taliban helped though.
You don’t have a scumbag terrorist living in your country(with your permission) and not know what he has planned.
This is what happens when you bet on a loser like Cote, I should have listened to David W-S
I know but I should have said Al Queda...too many damn terror groups to keep up with them all
Taliban. Al Queda. Hezbolla. …blah! Put them all in Wyoming and let them blow themselves up. No one’s using that state anyways lol.

Ok
Wonderful country.

lol...problem is most from around here still think that
If you ask any of Sarah Palin’s/Dick Cheney’s/George Bush’s supporters why we’re in Iraq, the majority will say 9/11

Ya'll need to lighten up
Who cares. Oh noes they used pearl harbor pics, we all know we won that war (yes there are winners, and we def won). As someone else said we should just use a mushroom cloud pic.
I agree...alot of ignorant people on this site

What are you talking about Mac?
We aren’t even American, Pearl Harbor in and of itself has nothing to do with us. What does tree hugging have to do with any of this?

Im sure I’ll like the email, and Im going all organic, and am against the war, but shit like this amuses me, not the act, but the people that take it so seriously. send the email, I’ll definitely read it!
I'm sure you won't like it

I'll as always look at it with an open mind
it cant be too bad, considering I hear it every day with my wife.
Its not what a bomb does to people...its what it does to the Earth and how it'll effect not only our kids, but us
I’ll send the e-mail to you and to anyone else who wants it too. I don’t think people realize what kinda trouble we are in these days. It doesn’t matter what country you live in anymore

I'll agree with that mac
My wife is big into that type of earth shit, I’ll be honest, I listen, but don’t care to much yet, I don’t think it’ll affect out lives, maybe I’m wrong.
we are all going to be affected sooner than later

good article mac
I agree it’s a very scary situation with no end in sight, and I’ve thought that once it gets out of the gulf, all the oceans could be affected. The guy messed up a few times in the article and it confused me, is it 200k gallons or barrels? he says both. The nuke idea could be a reality. I’ll admit that is probably the scariest scenario when you really think about it. What if that made it worse? Good find
IS that even Pearl Harbor pictures
I think it is very bad taste to show any pictures of war in a mma promo. These are definately war pictures and video but I am not sure these are Pearl Harbor. Unless Dream says they are, I am not sure. All our ships at Pearl Harbor were attacked at anchor positions not out in the ocean. Theses definately could be images of when our ships were invading the asian and japan waters or when were were headed to islands off of Australia. The other pictures are just airplanes flying, so I do not know. Either way, I think using war images to promote mma is dumb. Unless there is an image I missed or unless Japan says these are pearl harbor photos, I would say they were not. Either way bad taste
you make a good point
I haven’t seen the pics from the other video so I’ve changed the title for accuracy
It is not enough to succeed. Others must fail.

I agree Lance,
either way its all in bad taste, almost as bad as some of the comments on this thread. Anyone that says break out the nukes is a total jackass, stupidest thing you could ever say! Not funny in the least.
so then Diaz was what, the atomic bomb?

im impartial
Clips of planes flying and bombs going off is just ‘war footage’ to me, meaning we’re bout to witness a ‘war’ of a fight. The fact it was real footage I suppose is distasteful. But I’m not nearly as offended, as if it showed soldiers dying, and torture. But I see both sides. I mean, Japan is all about their fighters vs ours. They care way more then USA does in that dept. And they are extremely theatrically driven so I guess, yeah, I’m staying impartial. See both sides, and don’t think its horrible .

Get off your soapboxes.
How is it any different than the UFC “Fighting for the Troops”?
They bombed you…you bomb everyone.
If you had nothing to bitch about you’d all be miserable.
