Are American soliders actively informed of the rules of the Geneva Convention? Desecrating the bodies of the dead is against the rules our country agreed upon. Okay so maybe it was questionable "desecration", but for God's sake, why would you film it? Let it be another lesson, as if there aren't a million other similar lessons out there in our technological age, if you don't want someone else to see something, don't film it.
It has to be incredibly difficult to "respect" your enemy that obviously deserves no respect, but when you are representing our country, you must be held to a higher, almost non human, standard. And I'm glad that the vast majority of our serviceman attain this high standard. It's just a shame and entirely unfair that a simple video of one snap shot, one moment, a few soldiers in a moment of weakness, can demonize our entire military and mission over there.
