    Gentlemen, this wasn't combat, the people in question were detained and bound.

    It's all well and good us moaning about insurgents not adhering to the Geneva convention when it comes to abuse (and murder) of prisoners, but stooping to their level simply gives them more ammunition and support.

    Two wrongs do not make a right.

    That's the whole point. It was an invasion - a resource grab.

    99% of the lads roll off the dole and mean the best. Doesn't make it right - and doesn't wholly excuse them for not thinking of the bigger picture.
    However there are some goombas like gb34 whatever his role call is that compound the thieving devious money men at the top. It was probably him or a mate of his who did the guy above. if not for sure he had part in something similair.
