Could this be because the enemy is within the gates?

From 1500 meters away. Did he clear the shot with the barristers before taking it to ensure he wasn’t violating the assclowns civil rights? Face-palm. I saw this yesterday and was too befuddled to post it.

The IHAT team was set up by the Ministry of Defense in 2010 after dozens of claims from Iraq were submitted by British lawyers.

When does the "Season" open on Tort Lawyers?

What is the Bag Limit?

Are there separate Gun, Bow and Primitive Weapons seasons & Bag Limits?

Are there separate Buck & Doe seasons?

Are pitchforks included in the Primitive Weapons list?

The carcass is obviously inedible. Can it be fed to the sharks, or do the sharks refuse, out of 'professional courtesy', to eat the carcass?

I’ve said for years that we are close to prosecutions for killing the enemy on the battlefield without first giving him a fair trial.

How would he shout a warning at someone 3/4 mile away?

Or did they mean he should have warned the crowd by the mosque?

"The round flew almost 1200 metres across the face of the crowd missing them safely....."

What BS

ROE will require a megaphone be attached to the rifle? Who can shout loud enough to be heard at almost 3/4 of a mile?

There was a crowd? A huge audio system the size of something The Beatles used would be needed to warn the killer with the RPG.

There is a finnish battle cry from World War 2 called “Tulta munille” that means “fire at their balls”.

The stated 1200 yard range is well over 1/2 mile, over 2/3 in fact.

The idea that a shout can be heard at that distance is really, really stupid.

How about terminating with extreme prejudice the idiots recommending such action against the sniper? This ROE is total Bravo Sierra.

“This sniper appears to be a victim of a bunch of “ambulance chasing” lawyers...” who arrived too late at the scene or the sniper would have finished the job.
