All hell is breaking loose in the media over this Marine that shot a fallen terrorist in Iraq. Some in the media are saying the terrorist was "wounded"; the extent of which we may never know.

The way I have it figured, this is a war. Our boys had been playing nice in the past, but the terrorists don't play by any rules of engagement. They have been routinely feigning injury or death, waiting for our soldiers to get close, and then attacking them. If this guy was dead, who cares if he was shot one more time? If this guy was feining death in hopes of attacking our guys up close, he deserved to be sent straight to hell. If he was truly injured and had given up fighting, he has only his fellow terrorists to blame for giving our Marines itchy trigger fingers.

Our boys shouldn't take any chances, and if it comes down to a choice between a dead Iraqi terrorist or a dead Marine, I say no quarters. The only way to make the terrorists think twice about their dirty tactics is to make them ineffective. They pulled this Marine off the line, I hope it was to give him a medal.

By the way, how long before someone starts calling this a war crime?
