Good.  Killing the enemy should never be brought into question.

Regardless of the circumstances, him not being guilty is warranted.

Strictly speaking, that statement is not true.  If the enemy is your defenseless prisoner, then to kill him is murder, and should be prosecuted.

Exactly, should have gave him a pocket knife first. Tongue

Actually, dropping a bomb on the enemy in Afghanistan from 50,000 feet probably makes them defenseless as well, but I don't see it that way.

Wait, what? While one must give the benefit of the doubt in this case due to the not-guilty verdict, are you saying it's ok to kill defenseless prisoners? 

Additionally, this makes me sick:
