All of the French resistance werev actually French, a huge proportion of Taliban aren't Afghans, but are foreign jihad is , such as Chechens, Pakistanis and Arabs.
The very fact that you only 'think' it would be a lot different speaks volumes about your mentality to me, most NORMAL people, like it or not , have a default loyalty to their own, in this case, british forces, you have demonstrated on numerous occasions , that you do not.
You've made your point , which is a fair one , you're now straying into territory you're not qualified to comment on, IE whether it was cold blooded etc, you quite simply cannot comment on the actions of a man in a warzone, from the comfort of the chair in front of your PC.
I generally wont have a word said against our forces, but you cannot attempt to hold the moral high ground whilst also allowing this to go unpunished , whether it should be 10 years is a matter for another discussion , maybe there could've been a diminished responsibility type defence, what IS...
Casual Racism ?? Oh do fk off , the place is a mediaeval shitehole , there is no casual racism in highlighting this , all it's done is elicit a predictably lazy response .
Quite a few 'well known NSC thickets ' would have us believe Omar Deghayes , and other Guantanamo detainess who were in Afghanistan for 'computer courses'.
Yet again you reveal your ignorance, you've obviously never heard of the ridiculous policy of courageous restraint.
