recently a British soldier has been convicted of a war crime in Afghanistan.
he shot and killed a severely injured enemy.
he explained that they could not offer medical help to him and to call up a helicopter to pick him up would endanger the pilot and crew of that aircraft.
do you think they were right to convict him or in the heat of the moment he was placed in a really desperate dilemma and made the right decision?
I think in exceptional circumstances extraordinary decisions have to be made and I am glad I am not the one who has to make them.
