[QUOTE="ajstokes92, post: 3119301, member: 126452"] There's a huge debate to be had here, with many a good point. I think we're all in agreement that our support for the men on the ground out there is unfaultering and that the situation leading to and sustaining this situation is the big problem. However, getting back to the point initially made regarding videos of that nature, showing people on the news etc these videos may well increase popular support of the fighting men/women, but I don't think it can EVER justify our soldiers performing acts which are illegal, inhumane and brutal, regardless of the situation they are put in. The war may have started for the wrong reasons, but we're there now and fighting against these terroists scum who do behead people. If we go round shooting inncoent people, this makes us the same as they are and completely defeats the point of our soldiers staying there. No matter how hard and trying it is, we need to remember that we're there now for humanity, to bring the everyday Iraqi safety and let them live their lives in peace and safety, not adding to their fears.
