I had a discussion with an Iraq vet about the pissing hu-ha, and he said that the generals who come back here and tell the pols and us that we're trying to "win hearts and minds" in Afghanistan , tell the 19 year old troopies in Afghanistan that "if they shoot them in the heart, their minds will follow"!

It's not the action, but the YouTube uploaded video that caused the problem. Everyone with a brain knows shit like that and much worse happens all the time in wars. The proper response would be for the troopies to identify who uploaded the video, and "accidentally" put a friendly fire round in the back of his head.
