I was asked quite a few times by sincere Police officers that I should become one too. My reply was that I appreciated their faith in me but I could not trust my own tolerance towards many of the immoral culprits I would have to deal with.
It is therefore quite easy for me to understand when soldiers see fit to override some Geneva desk jockey's views of what should happen on the battlefield in the heat of the battle.

Dear individual,

Pretty turgid reasoning as has become normative of you of late.

So when soldiers override the Geneva conventions and torture and kill unarmed civilians or fighters then don't they then become immoral culprits deserving of torture and death even when prisoners themselves?

Steelereedux,
Your comment would be totally different were you to have some life experience outside the academic Public Service PC cocoon.
