In today's headlines: Photos revealed of US troops posing with corpses
I'm getting tired of the media making a big deal of soldiers taking souvenir photos. That's the nature of war. It has always been done, it comes with the territory. I've seen much worse war souvenirs.
Is it unseemly? Maybe. But it's WAR!
Is it a little weird? Sure. But so is WAR!
Is it disrespectful? Yeah. But so is WAR!
Is it inciteful? Probably. But so is WAR!
I'm sure some thin-skinned, empathic, namby-pamby will ask, "What if the dead person were your son/brother/dad"?
To that I say, we have already seen what these animals do to our dead, and it isn't any nicer.
War is hell. If you didn't know that going in, wake the fuck up.
