'If someone took your friends, maybe a few of your countries soldiers, perhaps your next door neighbour, shot one or two of them, humiliated a bunch of them, grinned in photos they took near them, and got them on the front cover of nearly every newspaper in the world, would you still feel that it's not a big deal?'

I really don't know...but then again that is seperate from the topic. Did any of you lot know the corpses? No. So i don't get why you're all whinging about it.

Then again, one could justify the smilingness by saying that the corpses [when alive, of course] would be/have done the exact same thing. And thus it's a kind of twisted form of revenge.

Failing that justification i still don't get everybodies outrage. Sure, it's kind of tactless, but really...what harm is it doing? So they're happy that they've killed someone and they're taking "tourist" photo's. No problem. Let them do it.
