| I understand this fully.
As for the part where the Turkish press didn't scream about the kidnappings/captures everywhere... maybe they have a little more in the way of ethics than the American press who would have used the "people have the right to know" punch line to release whatever the heck they wanted.
As for the eight that were captured, I know for sure that if my group (RoKMC) was captured without a fight, we would face a general court martial.
Generations of people before me have fought to the death and showing what an easy target I am endangers my other comrades.
Mind you, I see this differently from guys who are surrounded in a city for a whole week who now have no food and ammunition to continue and reluctantly surrender. That is different.
Unfortunately the guys who wrote the article don't seem to see the difference between the two, but what do you expect from a reporter?
