At the risk of flogging a dead horse here Tourist, I don't believe that anyone is 'rejoicing in the agonized death' of the crew of this helicopter.
The point that I and helical made was that the actions of the crew in attacking their own civilian population (assuming of course that they weren't actually making a documentary about bees, as glojo rather bizzarly suggests may have been the case) cannot be excused simply because they were obeying orders.
If you care to read back through the threads you will see that this was the beginning and end of our case. I've no more desire to see anyone die in the burning wreckage of a helicopter than you or anybody else has, and to suggest otherwise is to distort what was said.
