The Enemy
Next time you are wondering how terrorists rationalize the killing of innocent civilians, have a look at this quote from a Marine who is a witness at a murder trial for a fellow soldier who shot an unarmed, 52-year-old Iraqi at point-blank range:
"I don't see it as an execution, sir," he told the judge. "I see it as killing the enemy."
He said Marines consider all Iraqi men part of the insurgency. [source]
