Thanks for the link. Probably saw the same video on television overnight.

You know one point that has not been made is that the Marine just thinks the man is faining death when he shoots. We have no objective proof that the terrorist was actually alive or dead. For all that the "evidence" shows, the Marine may have been imagining things and really shot an already dead body. Plugging a suspect dead body (or, on a larger scale, a suspect vehicle) "Just to be sure" is a fairly common battlefield practice. Afterward, unless you examine the body in detail to determine if the terrorist was alive or dead, what is the basis of the claim?

Is it possible there is a Heisenberg's terrorist in the mosque corollary (sp) to Heisenberg's cat in the box paradox?
