Having not learned from the Abu-Ghraib scandal, American fucking Marines (of all fucking Armed Forces corps) were ''caught on tape'' urinating on the corpses of alleged Taliban fighters.
They seem to have been filmed by a fellow serviceman and have been identified as an elite sniper team from the 3rd Battalion, 2nd Marines out of Camp Lejeune in North Carolina.
Desecrating the corpses of people you have just killed and will be de facto forever considered terrorists even if in reality they might not have been - if foreign/invading forces had been in your country for over a decade, isn't there at least the slightest possibility you'd be pissed off and would want them out of there by almost any means necessary? - is a useless, disgusting action that is condemned by the Geneva Convention. Not that Americans, of late, have respected anything in it when it comes to the War On Terror.
But I digress...
When it comes to videos of people urinating (yeah, I'm aware that didn't seem quite legit when I wrote it), I strongly prefer this one, by the way.
