Does it really matter what nationality you are accusing? I mean come on...![]()
I would say it does when your making allegations of miss-deeds and criminality that steps outside of cultural norms. Some types of atrocity are well within the capability of some cultures while some are within the capability of others.
If cultural mores no longer hold even a little truth then I really fear for the world.. But I don't think we (humanity) have gone that far down the drain (yet) and as such don't believe this particular tale holds water.
That is not to say other atrocities are not being carried out but this one does not ring true for me.edit on 10/9/11 by thoughtsfull because: (no reason given)
You're really trying to say that Europeans are above cutting someone's head off?
What a naive and narrow minded view of the world.
There are sick bastards in every society, not just those populated by muslims and non whites.

Europeans soldiers are less likely to commit these acts in the modern battlefield than americans. And by Europeans I'm excluding british. British soldiers are more tied to american mentality than European mentality.
Reports of abuse by european soldiers against innocent civilians are rare if non existent.
