One, if you have never been in combat, be quiet...The Muslims over there already think that we (The U.S. and it's Allies) are on a Christian Crusade. If anything, we're doing what they've been doing since the beginning, the insurgents mark their weapons with markings from the Koran. So trust me, you have zero clue as to what you're talking about when it comes to the rules and conduct that comes from fighting a war.
