Most Western countries have had civil wars.

Brother against brother, family members turning in other family, friends fighting, torturing, murder.

They're not known for being very civilised. Yet both UK, USA and others seem to think they have the moral high ground because of the conduct of the irregular Libyan forces et al.

If what 'we' did in our various wars had been reported by TV, radio and tweets etc, would 'we' come out smelling of roses, or just smelling?

For Christ's sake stop being so sanctimonious . . . our troops have done just as badly, through history and probably still do from time to time.

The term 'bloody civil war' doesn't happen by accident.
