On the original post, in truth it is water under the bridge, because tomorrow there will be another incident that will outrage the public. Then this minor infraction of what the press and the politically correct think is a breach of fair play will be forgotten. There is no such thing as fair play in war or battle because a fire fight is all about survival and damn all else. If a few civilians are caught up in the crossfire or counter attack, tough. It’s morally wrong, it’s unfortunate, but it has been the way wars are fought since time began. The innocent along with the guilty and the troops on the ground are classed as expendable by the leaders of both sides. Don’t blame the men on the ground for the minor atrocities, blame the commanders that send them out with a mind to kill or be killed.

Be well IAN 2411
