Gazpacho, with all due respect, I can't see how a cameraman in a 15th floor can be a threat to a tanker in a M2-Bradley with a 18mm cannon.

American troops must protect their own lives, but they must also avoid any civilian casualties. You can't just shoot everyone without a good reason.

It is not as the other spanish journalist killed. In that case was an iraqi missile that killed him and two american soldiers. Ok, he knew where he was and what he was doing. You can't expect a dictatorship to respect anyone, but we should expect the troops of a democracy to make a responsible use of force. That is what makes us different from them.

You know I'm for this war, but it must be conducted in a strictly way, otherwise our troops would be nothing but criminals, and our governments nothing but state criminals.

Just my point of view...
