>> AP Photographer Shoots Photos and Snuff Video of Taliban Executing Two Women. And Does Nothing.

This isn’t Jack Bauer, federal government super-ninja — he’s a freaking camera man.

If he’d done anything, he’d have certainly died with them.

Exactly. I fail to see what the camera guy could have done except get himself killed.

The important thing is that his pics and video have alerted the world anew to the Taliban's barbarity. That awareness may end up saving lives.

Same reply as to Dangus. How about leaving the assignment and calling in the friggin’ Marines? It is, after all, only a job. And that is a double murder. And if you want to say he’s a journalist, then it looks like good propaganda to remind all the women in the Muslim world what will happen to them if they do not obey their lords and masters.

Then again maybe the Marines will find them anyway and the journalist might accidentally be on the receiving end of a JDAM. Maybe he can send that shot back to AP. Or not.
