Dude, settin' someone on fire with a Molotov cocktail is just evil.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

Getting set on fire is usually evil no matter what does it. Unless it's a fire-breathing gypo, of course.Comment

I have to wonder about the rules or laws of occupation.Originally posted by germanos
1: two brits get arrested by the Iraqi Police (supposedly representing the elected authorities)
2: British tanks smash through prison gates to get their guys back.
Doesn't appear to me as respecting Rule of Law, but perhaps thats just my flesh being week.(\__/)

I was listening to the radio and they were claiming the two British soldiers were working undercover spying on the Mahdi Army which is the Shia militia loyal to Muqtada Sadr who lead an uprising last year. Supposedly the local police in Basra are either in the Mahdi Army or are sympathetic to the Madhi and they arrested the men on the dubious charge of spying. Unless the Status of Forces Agreement has changed since I was there local authorities legally have no authority over Coalition Forces so legally the Iraqis had no right to arrest British soldiers.Originally posted by KrazyHorse
Running over a civilian or two would not have surprised me as much as does the possibility that the British just militarily assaulted a prison run by their nominal allies.
If that's true then it explains alot as to why the British decided to storm the prison and release their men.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment

The rule of law comes from the SOFA which says Iraqi authorities can't arrest or do anything to Coalition soldiers. Instead the soldiers all fall under their domestic laws and if a crime is commited then they get tried in their home country. Having locals who are simpathetic to the Mahdi "arrest" British soldiers who are survailing the Mahdi isn't legal to begin with.Originally posted by germanos

So in other words, the bodies that are supposed to be taking over the country cannot be trusted?DISCLAIMER: the author of the above written texts does not warrant or assume any legal liability or responsibility for any offence and insult; disrespect, arrogance and related forms of demeaning behaviour; discrimination based on race, gender, age, income class, body mass, living area, political voting-record, football fan-ship and musical preference; insensitivity towards material, emotional or spiritual distress; and attempted emotional or financial black-mailing, skirt-chasing or death-threats perceived by the reader of the said written texts.Comment

I doubt the German or Japanese authorities were trusted until sometime mid to late '50s.
Think about it. It's an occupation.(\__/)
