Five SAS soldiers in murder probe over jihadi death in Syria

Nothing justifies war crimes, if indeed any took place. That is what the investigation is to determine.

Neither you nor I know the nature of exactly what is being alleged, how severe the supposed acts were and what the evidence or indeed mitigation is.

Without such knowledge you can no more say it is wrong to pursue an investigation than I can say it is right.

Though I suspect the allegations would have to be pretty severe to trigger such action.

Or do you think soldiers of any particular nation should be free to do whatever the fuck they like if ever they find themselves in stressful situations? We didnt think that when Germans were doing it Behaving as they are meant to do in stressful situations in line with the Geneva Conventions and their own terms of engagement is part of what they are paid to do.  They are not paid to rape, pillage, torture or murder and any British troops that do things like this sully the good name of our country and the uniform they wear.

Of course, whatever the allegations are they might be scurrilous. But if they are serious and backed by evidence they must be investigated.

Whatever the truth, we are unlikely to be informed of what exactly took place, so we are left having to trust the investigators. I suggest we let them get on with the job instead of emoting angrily from a position of near total ignorance as you are doing. A pity you dont feel so strongly about the homeless on the streets, including many former servicemen.

If there is no case to answer this will soon disappear.

No, it speaks one word: "And?"

No surprise there, then. 🙄

People like me are powerless. It is people like you who form the great mass of the common sheeple and give us the governments we get who have ruined this country.  And your stupidy keeps shining through with crap like this.

LOL! Perhaps they should try not voting in terrorists.

I admire your optimism.
