Savage executions in the Arab world must be condemned as wrong by
anyone's standards

David Aaronovitch, columnist of the year

A man from Maidstone had this letter published in the Independent last
week. 'Why is it barbaric,' he asked, 'to decapitate an innocent man
with a knife but civilised to do it with a laser-guided bomb?' Or to
rephrase the question, is the video executioner of Nicholas Berg in any
way morally deficient compared to the general or politician who gives an
order that - whatever the intention - will almost certainly lead to the
death of an innocent somewhere?


David Aaronovitch, columnist of the year must be a complete asshole not to know the difference.
And for you to post such horse**** does not say much for you.
