West did the right thing, because he would have been screwed otherwise. This is a difference of opinion that you and I will not agree on. This is war. Fireing his sidearm past the head of an enemy is nothing. As I said, if he had willingly raped, killed, or looted, fine, hang him. He didn't. He "mistreated" a enemy prisoner. So what. You cannot convince me otherwise. Had the tables been turned and West been captured, he would have been beaten, paraded on TV, and who knows what else...maybe killed. But that doesn't seem to bother anyone.

You have your opinion and I have mine.

It would seem that the event is over now, and I for one am satisfied with the outcome. Justice has been done, and I will hold no ill will for anyone involved.

Does it bother you that West allowed his men to beat the prisoner and when he insisted he didn't have informtion then West went into his gun firing act.

Does it concern you that the rest of the story has not been reported. There is no information at all that the attack on this prisoner garnered any information of any use to our guys.
