The whole world expressed their disgust and dislike on the acts committed by 4 U.S. Marines who were caught on video urinating on dead Talibans. It caused quite an uproar among Muslim/Islamic countries, its citizens and leaders, U.S. Political and Military Officials and private citizens, all over the world.
They called it senseless, deplorable, stupid and utter disrespect for the dead and the religious beliefs of the Islamic faith. I agree, pissing on the dead bodies of the enemy is not an honorable act for anybody, U.S. Marines or whatever group they may belong., I concur that they should be punished for what they did, there is no question or debate about that one.
But the question that keeps on bugging my mind is....what about the atrocities committed by the terrorists? They blow up buildings and airplanes killing hundreds or thousands of innocent people, bombing Islamic places of worship to kill fellow Muslims of different sect. Beheading Americans or foreign persons abducted in the Middle East and showing the murder in the internet......are these acts being condemned by the Muslim world? Are these people being punished or even at least, reprimanded by their political, military or religious leaders? Or are they being treated as heroes and martyrs for doing such things?
The moral lesson here is....."Do not do unto others what you do not want them to do unto you". But if you don't buy that and you only feel the pain and disgust when you're the one being injured but you don't give a crap when you're the one committing the abuse, then I guess don't expect your enemy to respect your rights as a human being. Besides, "War is Hell"....and in hell I don't think they have any rules to follow.
So toughen up boys, it's just piss....at least they didn't chop your head off so won't be able to get even when you reincarnate as what you often do your victims and enemies.....
