He is innocent until proven guilty. never the less the charges are serious and if proven he violated military law.

RIGHT of SOME, LEFT of OTHERS

If it is a choice between them and us, I choose us

Killing scum Taliban should never be a crime, these filthy animals can't even really be regarded as people as far as i am concerned .......just targets! I am sure they wouldn't treat our guys to pleasant if they captured a Canadian! During WW2 Canadians routinely shot captured SS units because of the terrible things they did to POW'S why should we treat Terrorist's any different?

If the allegations are true, He shot an unarmed man and it violates all that he stands for.

No! he shot an animal Terrorist! Who cares??

While my old shirts say "kill them all let God sort them out", every soldier knows the repurcussions of their actions and that shit goes downhill.

Who cares, lets see.....

1)The Canadian Armed Forces

2)Canadian Forces National Investigation Service

Good thing we have people of honour and intelligence running things.

The court of public opinion cares. Pro war advocates approval of executing prisoners is priceless support for those opposed to Canada's war effort. Did you have to learn your ignorance or is it genetic?

When the people have no tyrant, their public opinion becomes one.

Maybe you should watch some of those Videos that shows what Taliban do to Hostages like cutting their heads off with a dull knife in front of a Camera and posting it on the web......these are not people but mere animals........i am sure Israel wouldn't charge one of their soldiers for shooting terrorists!

We don;t get to fight a war based on Morals if we have none.

There's a lot we don't know on our side-like the politics of the Army unit he was in and and why he was charged and why others weren't, because given how long Canada has been stuck in the zhit in Afghanistan it has certainly happened in the past.

Could be the soldier has all kinds of people above/below him that's he's rubbed the wrong way and now he gets his just reward.

I have seen those videos.

Is there some connect to relevance you could expound on?

It has become apparent you dont know shit from shinola so, go ahead and vent rants all you want.

Something tells me you didnt check to see if in fact any Israeli has been charged for similar crimes.

You would of course be wrong. Qu'elle surprise

unbelieveable never have i seen so much support for the enemy as i have on here.

Come on Einstein, show us who supports the enemy. This thread is short, so it will be easy for you to pull quotes and post them showing exactly who on MLW supports the enemy.

What you dont get is this is exactly the thing that sets back our own soldiers in their efforts to move forward with the people of Afghanistan. Just like Abu Ghraib set back the efforts of the US forces, things like this can and do harm our guys.

I suspect you just dont care about ours, as in Canadian Soldiers, one whit.

Why do you hate our soldiers so much?

Israel will charge its soldiers.... guilt and innocences is determined by the courts

ISRAEL: Soldier acquitted of killing Palestinian girl

17 November 1993

Kim Bullimore

On November 17, an Israeli military court acquitted of all charges the captain accused of the manslaughter of 13-year-old student Iman Al-Hams. Captain R, whose identity was suppressed by the Israeli military, was also charged with the illegal use of his weapon, conduct unbecoming an officer and perverting the course of justice by asking soldiers under his command to change their testimony.

Iman was shot dead on October 6 as she walked to school in the Rafah refugee camp. She was one of 30 children killed during the 18-day Israeli offensive in Gaza at the time. Her body was riddled with 17 bullets. Initially the Israeli occupation forces claimed that Iman was shot because soldiers believed she was carrying explosives in her school bag. But the bag contained only school books.

The differences between these two cases are extreme.

The Taliban insurgent is described as mortally wounded. What was the purpose of the shooting and who was there that complained.

As it was a "Canadian" heading an Afghan detachment... where did the information come from?

By the sound of the talibans injuries from an airstrike, he may not have had any arms, or hands, it appears that the wounded was in very very bad shape.

"The wounds appeared too severe for any type of treatment in situ," the statement reads.

A former Israeli soldier has been found guilty by a military court of shooting dead the British student Tom Hurndall while he acted as a human shield for Palestinian children amid gunfire in the Gaza Strip.

A soldier is ultimately held responsible for his actions.

All he has to do is the "I was playing it safe" and "I was scared for my life" defense. The judge would take that into account when making a decision. It is a weak defense, but then again, there is that case in Alberta posted in local politics that has just as weak as that one. This is up to the judge.

But then again war is hell, as AG likes to put it, your first objective is to win. I'm surprised the guy got found out in the first place. I don't blame the capt for shooting the guy, but considering the rules of engagement he is in deep kaka.
