From the tape I have seen, I don't think there is any doubt that that marine considered that terrorist a threat. The marine several times said he thought the terrorist was faking it; ostensibly so that the terrorist could surprise someone unaware. Whether the marine was justified, making that observation, is another matter.


Possibilities

1 - He thought the terrorist was a threat and he was right.

2 - He thought the terrorist was a threat and he was wrong.

3 - He did not think the terrorist was a threat but he shot him anyway.

My questions was basically if #3 was true is it not murder? I can easily believe that #1 or #2 were true, I'm just saying that if #3 was true than he did murder a prisoner.
