Sorry chaps,
And maybe my level of comprehension is not as "internationally massive" (or intellectually come to that) as others. A military C130 is shot down, in a combat zone, by a defending fighter. Head on, athwart ships, under the radar ? Really, surely a kill is a kill ? Or was the Falklands conflict fought under the Knights code of chivalry ? Perhaps all the books I have read on the subject missed the point as well.
