NO, he absolutely did the right thing! The word of God says that we have to be gentle as doves and CUNNING as serpants! This was cunning in my opinion, we'll be back some other day, let them have their precious mosque for now. This wasn't the right time, we have to play our cards right and I totally agree with the commander! WE'LL BE BACK... just you watch!

Just a what if - what if Saddam was in there?

OBTW, SadDEMON was HOPING with all his black heart that we'd attack the mosque! That was his intention all along....KUDOS TO THAT BRAVE COMMANDER!

Rose, it also says you shall have no other Gods before me, which I think takes precedence over cunning. I haven't seen the video myself, so I'm speaking hypothetically, but if the soldiers were in fact ordered to bow in a show of deference to Islam, then that's going too far. I wouldn't do it. Contrary to the popular cheerleader position in majority on this thread, not everything is subject to negotiation based on the situation.
