Understand the dismay at the line taken by some newspapers but the principal difference between us and the Taliban is that we run what is supposed to be a free society without censorship and we practise a (relatively) free society.
The downside is that we have to behave ourselves at all times, including war, in accordance with the principles we live by.
We can't, unfortunately, treat them as they would treat us, otherwise we sacrifice whatever moral high ground we profess to occupy.
Love to snip their goolies but those days have gone!
