        @liberal_leftie @BBCBreaking Naïve for thinking that the so-called 'rules of war' are easily & readily applied in difficult circumstances

        @iwdrew66 @BBCBreaking i dont think they are easy, but in this instance it was an execution and a warcrime, the tape is proof of that.

        @BBCBreaking In WW1 '000s of wounded soldiers were bayonetted on battlefields. WW2 the same happened as did Falklands. Where does this end?
