I think the only people who get upset about this and the Abu Ghraib torture are the ones who think that Americans are somehow morally superior to other people. For me I'm not shocked at all. Humans do terrible things in wartime. Don't think American soldiers executed Nazi prisoners of war? American soldiers are human, not angels of mercy, and that's what humans do. If I were in that position, sent to some shithole on false pretenses, getting shot at, getting my buddies killed, I'd shoot that guy too. He could've surrendered before the firefight started. After that it's fight to the death.
