Don't forget that that is what soldiers are trained to do. They are trained to feel scared of the enemy and shoot to solve problems. It is not surprising that incidents like this occur, or that some soldiers go crazy and go on shooting rampages later when they come back home.

War is a sign of a world culture that is mentally ill, and being a soldier that is willing and eager to kill is a form of mental illness.
