This unfortunate soldier is about to be executed for killing prisoners in a war. I think it is a political manoeuvre to keep politicians in power. It seems they think more of their own hide and don't are who has to suffer. Political rules of engagement have caused the deaths of American servicemen (Navy Seals) as well as imprisonment of soldiers defending themselves. Perhaps, going back to a time when leaders were in the battlefields would be good for us all. Some of these American women would sing a different song
