Gurkha Beheads a Taliban


See: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-1296136/As-Gurkha-disciplined-beheading-Taliban-Thank-God-side.html

A lot of the media have been in uproar over the actions of a member of the British Gurkha Rifles regiment in Afghanistan. He apprently cut off the head of a Taliban suspect. Surely shooting his guts out would have been far more humane!

Personally I don't see what all the fuss is about. Once you've made the decision to invade a country and blow people up so some oil company can build a pipeline through their village then it's hypocritical to shilly-shally about it. Either go in there and mow the subhuman scum down like cockroaches or decide that such a war is imoral and go home!
