Marine Urination Video

There is a video floating around of supposed US Marines urinating on bloody, suspected Taleban corpses. This is being denounced as inhumane from DC to Kandahar.

:biggrin: Is it really inhumane? Not like the urination victims are still alive to suffer through it. Is it more inhumane than a 5.56mm round to the head or a Hellfire missile to innocents caught in a drone raid?

I think it was tactless and disrespectful to your foes, but inhumane, like beheading an innocent reporter? Or throwing acid on schoolgirls on their way to class?

The Obama administration is responsible for this. They need to apologize.

i don't believe we should generalize and claim that it is ok to do what we did if true? once the investigation runs it course and the facts are in then it becomes a discussion.

The marines were stupid to do this and I hope it doesn't put other marines in even more danger from the taleban.

hillary and panetta kind of tried to cover for us, but Obama nothing as of yet. maybe a notable mention during the state of the union address.

Even if true, totally blown out of proportion by the media, IMO.

If true, those involved should be reprimanded, because they should be held to a higher standard.

But, a big deal? Not in my opinion.

Humiliating and degrading I agree...

but I consider being killed to be considerably more significant.
