I never said it was right. I said it happens in all wars. War is not right.

More wasted lives for what? WMDs?

I don't think it's all that marine's fault; you just chose wrong guy to run the show; sad thing is it's not his arse on the frying pan.

I'd rather see a US marine shoot an injured combatant than see an innocent person get his/her head sawed off by some terrorists.

I beleive he said PERSON not Iraqi or US but INNOCENT PERSON meaning somone who was murdered without cause.

That sounded very clear to me that he would rather see a US Marine kill an INSURGANT (meaning somone currently blowing up civilans and sawing the heads off of peple) than see another grusome kidnapping gone bad.

A Marine approached one of the men in the mosque saying, "He's [expletive] faking he's dead. He's faking he's [expletive] dead."

The Marine raised his rifle and fired into the apparently wounded man's head, at which point a companion said, "Well, he's dead now."

if the above quote is true it sounds justified to me.

EDIT:

Of course there's no outrage at
* the use of mosques as weapons caches and fighting positions
*The use of false surrender ruses
*the booby trapping of dead bodies

Nope, he's saying there's nothing wrong if US Marines are murdering people.

Gunslinger who's the highest authority of US armed forces?

I'm not saying it is excusable.

What I am saying is that I would rather see an enemy combatant be shot than see an innocent person getting their head sawed off by a terrorist.

From the information presented so far, it appears that he shot a noncombatant. What I was taught is that the only acceptable time to shoot unarmed personel is during the assault.

I have a story about a cherry posing a question about this subject to a captain once a long time ago. But this isn't the place for it.

The investigation will determine whether the Marine violated any rules or should be charged with any crime.

REEEAADDDINGGG COOOMPRREEEHEEENSION!

he's saying that a terrorists life is less valuable PERIOD. If this guy had a gun or a grenade with the pin pulled the Marine and the camera crew would be dead. Sorry but If you're not going to play by the rules than you suffer as well.
