Default Gurkha ordered back to UK after beheading dead Taliban fighter

This is considered a gross insult to the Muslims of Afghanistan, who bury the entire body of their dead even if parts have to be retrieved.

Fuck sake it's a war, we're not there to tickle them to death.

Old saying "all is fair in love and war" so tough shit, Taliban are fucking hypocrites, they wouldn't think twice if they got the chance to do it to the enemy.

I'm sure this Gurkha must have been following orders so in my opinion he deserves a medal for carrying out his duty in extremely difficult conditions.

I suspect the gurkha followed the orders of trying to ensure we could prove who was killed in the typical way a gurkha would!! as said, couldnt carry the body so took his head

id love to be at the court martial, im sure his defence is following orders. I bet no one ordered him to not cut off his head if they couldnt bring back the body. And i cant imagine there is anything in any standing orders about beheading corpses.

Good on him!

This is war - there should not be anything in the rules of war which state we do not demean the enemies dead!

At the end of the day, hitler gassed thousands, so we bombed the german cities left right and center, sadam gassed thousands, so we bombed the iraq cities

How many of the people these bombs killed were part of the war by choice?

THis taliban leader was ther by choice, knew he was fighting a gurkha and therefore would know the tradition - fuck the geneva convention as I dont see all of our allies there helping out!

Probably revenge for the 3 Gurkhas a renegade Afghan National Army soldier wiped out last week when the Gurkhas were training them. Good on him.

Yup, the Ghurkhas are from a different culture too... don't they get respected in the same way as the muslim religion? If they want to chop the heads off dead bodies then I say let them.

fuck me you don't half spout some shit at times
The sensisble thing is to BEFREIND the local peoples and thier religions, showing respect, this is the most effective way to counter insurgency, and why the brits do so.
I know you were/are some kind of one man army, but you do talk some shit.
Just my opinion and view, what were you anyway royal green howards, woodentop ?

Clearly you have no understanding of the Nepalese culture, when/if the poor sod is discharged from the army he will commit suicide, as that is thier way, due to the "shame" brought onto his family, they even have dedicated places to do this.

I think its more to do with the point their trying to win the afgan people over as well, and as they've lived under taliban law our soldiers can't be seen as a ruthless invading force and more of a freedom/liberation force.

"The incident, which is being investigated by senior commanders, is hugely embarrassing to the British Army, which is trying to build bridges with local Afghan communities who have spent decades under *Taliban rule."

If you don't know what a Gurkha is, come for a day trip to Farnborough. You'll find one driving every bus.

Lovely, polite people! Although their teenage kids are growing massive gay hair and getting a bit gangy.
