Falling morale goes hand-in-hand with a lack of discipline.
There was a vivid example of that here earlier this week when an Iraqi working as a TV sound recordist for the Reuters news agency was shot dead by an American soldier.
His only mistake was to have approached an area where there had been a shooting incident.
Innocent civilian
Waleed Khaled appears to have been fired on without any warning. He leaves behind a wife who is four months pregnant and a seven-year-old daughter.
The Reuters cameraman with him was injured and, although the main witness to what had happened, he was promptly arrested by the Americans.
Before he was taken away, the cameraman was able to tell colleagues what had occurred.
A senior British official admitted there was now a problem with American troops
When an American journalist working for Reuters, managed to get to the scene with a British security adviser, he found the Americans laughing and joking around Waleed's body.
They were also refusing to give the injured cameraman any water.
The security adviser - a former British soldier - said it was apparent to him that the American troops wanted to clear away any evidence before there could be an outside inquiry.
He said what was most worrying was that the unit did not seem to care that they had shot dead an innocent civilian.
This is just fing sick, those men should be shoot.

Abominable. The soldiers were probably some twenty year olds picked up by a recruiting team in a Wal-mart.

Chuh-huh. Yeah, probably came from a stupid and poor family, too.
Who in the **** do you guys think shop at Wal-Marts? You guys seem to have this impression that it's some sort of hillbilly haven or something. Around here it's mainly poor African Americans that shop there. White people fled to Target a few years ago.

Anyone have a link to the original story?

Give petty people just a little bit of power and watch how they misuse it! You can't silence the self doubt, can you?

I'd say that a lot of our military is made up of poor people.
