Mindboggling...
Please stop with the moral equivalency to terrorists. All these semantics about whether this was or wasn't a war crime are insane. What happened to that motherfucker in the mosque is no war crime. What do you think he was doing in that mosque in the middle of a warzone? Praying? Sweeping the floor? Watering the plants? Dusting off Qurans? Is it instead possible he was actually fighting and trying to kill US troops? Over 1100 insurgent killer rats were exterminated in this campaign; should we now have lawyers with briefcases and flak jacks embedded with the troops to verify the legality of each and every casualty? Madness.

The guy was an enemy combatant, plain and simple. He had weeks of warning to lay down his arms and stop fighting. He chose to stay and fight. He was killed in combat. It doesn't matter how. This is War. End of story.
