As I stated to him, we know that these are atrocities even by wartime standards because we have a context to deal with.

Many acts are not considered so when the context is found out, like the Marine who shot those terrorists in the Mosque.

They may have been unarmed, but since others had gotten up and shot at our troops before the common sense approach was not take any chances.

See the Marines making sure the Japanese are dead after a battle by shooting them.

We are not dealing with a normal mindset by one which consistently makes excuses for sedition, secession, treason and rebellion thus he is only capable of logic contingent on his chosen side.

After the examples of his 'non-war crimes' I wonder what would constitute an actual war crime, if even the the worst slaughters of World War II do not even qualify, in his overview. It's sad and frightening as the same time.

In terms of Iraq our men deal with the daily threats of jihadic metal cases, sold out to to a death culture, yet the safety of our men is even questioned.
