I would call it "tit for tat" if it was up to me.

Would someone please tell these mealy-mouthed maggots to try taking their crying game to the Islamofascists who are beheading AMERICANS and see how far they get?

Until these jackwits can appreciate what sort of enemy we're dealing with, they have absolutely no room to whine.

Sorry, the US was not in at the time... Afghan forces were taking messages for us at the time. No one is to blame...except the Taliban.

Summary executions of prisoners were a serious violation of the Geneva Conventions and human rights law, said John Sifton, Human Rights Watch representative for Afghanistan. No it's not. Were they in uniform?

Still waiting on comment from Mr. Sifton on Berg, Johnson, and Kim.
Waiting.....waiting.....waiting....

Afgan forces messedup - they are supposed to get 3 times the number (should have been 9). Then instead of a simple "chop off the head" there should have been castration involved & various body parts shoved in their owners mouths AND THEN the head chopped off.


duh.

I remember an interview of a taliban leader. He said they were sorry for using a soccer stadium for their public beheadings. However they would gladly stop beheading people in the soccer stadium if we would build them a stadium specifically for beheadings.

Wonder what this world would be like if these Human Rights groups went after the Taliban and Al Qaeda like they go after the good guys. These are twisted people with a very warped sense of justice. Totally and utterly useless and probably pretty close to harmful.

A historical precedent: The mutual animosity between the Germans and Canadians in WWII, especially after Dieppe. Prisoners on either side were summarily shot out of hand after capture.

So, why aren't they going after AlQaeda, who seem to have started this p*ssing contest?

The reported beheading of Taliban captives by Afghan forces this week would be a war crime and the troops and commanders responsible should be put on trial, a U.S.-based human rights group said on Wednesday.

Does anybody recall a similar statement being released by these folks about beheadings committed by America's enemies?

"Summary executions of prisoners were a serious violation of the Geneva Conventions and human rights law, said John Sifton, Human Rights Watch representative for Afghanistan."

I am not sure that Afghanistan was a signatory of the convention, and I am less sure that the Taliban here were wearing uniforms when captured.

If either of those were not the case, then they have no Geneva Convention rights.

These so-called "human rights" groups should be renamed "terrorist rights" groups. After all, they're looking out for and seeking to protect the enemy, right?
