To: Peace will be here soon
Not saying its wrong or right, but it would be a hard decision to make for anyone.

I'll say it: Grovelling in front of your enemies is wrong, wrong, wrong! Unless we relearn these old ideas of honor, we will never prevail

If it were me, I think I would have been beheaded by now.

That's honorable.

How can this guy live with himself after this?

I don`t think he has to worry about that.

To: Cogadh na Sith

I think we should give this man and his family a break. Almost certainly none of us have ever been in a situation that this man currently finds himself in - probably nothing even close. Who knows with certainty how he or she would react? Sure, like everyone else I would like to think that I would heroically just tell the those cowardly pieces of **** to go "screw a goat" and have my head sawed off and be done with it. However, I don't really know what I would do. I don't think anyone here else does either.

I think honor lies in having understanding for others weaknesses but rising above those weaknessess in oneself.
