staffs riffraff 1,068 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 If its a case of pre planned murder they get all they deserve but in a battlefield situation ? Fractions of a second meaning live or die ? Then the people that sent the troops there are responsible if someone innocent gets killed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 I just read they were arrested after a video clip was found on one of the marines laptops after he was arrested back in the UK for something else. Feck knows what happened but war must be a terrible thing when you're in a stressed battlefield situation and shit happens. Why on earth would you want to keep a peice of video that could land you in the shit I don't know.. What is the fascination some folk have with filming absolutely everything these days?

robbo 874 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 it says shooting an enemy soldier who poses no risk is an offence. Surely , simply by being an armed enemy soldier you are a risk? why should our troops have to play by different rules to them. They would have taken great pleasure in torturing and beheading one of our wounded troops, then putting pictures up for all to see. why should you give first aid to someone who has just been trying to kill you. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paulus 26 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 it happened before with the treatment of prisoners in iraq, They were convicted by their own photographic evidence. having said that war is war end of, that wounded insurgent could well have been holding the detonator to an ied or anything else for that matter. the objective is to make the area secure, not go through a 200 page check manual to ensure the rules are adhered to.
