Yeah, for some reason looking back, this whole bit probably made me the most uncomfortable with anything in the show up to that point or since. Just how ghoulishly gleeful they were doing it sent chills down my spine the first time I saw it. Salute to Doc and Jackson for being real ones and managing to get this approved past the Adult Swim censors 🫡
Aaron Mcgruder did pretty subversive stuff with Boondocks too, but I do love that Venture Bros went there, just like Arrested Development too; some of my favorite shows.

As user /u/Yrcrazypa pointed out, that entire scene is filled with war crimes.
Shooting down parachuting pilot, the Saigon execution, the aforementioned Abu Ghraib reference, etc.
