American Citizen Sentenced to Death in Iran

How would you react if you saw the enemy pissing on our American soldiers? Is it something to be condemned when they do it, but ok for our side?

About as pissed as the fact that they killed our guys in the first place.

We've seen it happen to our guys, a few times. Cases like this come up and our sense of decency is thrown in our face. Fair enough. But why isn't our enemy more universally condemned for not having any sense of decency in this regard in the first place?

I don't really condone this kind of behavior, but I think the outrage is a little overdone.

So it was okay to kill them, but to piss on the corpses of an enemy that very well might have killed friends of these soldiers is despicable?

I believe we've had the discussion before, where if he died in a firefight then that's part of was, but if he was executed after having surrendered, that would be wrong. This action I would rate as less bad than excuting an opponent who has surrendered, but certainly worse than killing someone during a firefight. Yes, this action is despicable.
