Up in smoke

A revelation likely to be buried/denied by the usual "they're liberated" crowd and the mainstream media:

"US soldiers in Afghanistan burnt the bodies of dead Taliban and taunted their opponents about the corpses, in an act deeply offensive to Muslims and in breach of the Geneva conventions.

"An investigation by SBS's Dateline program, to be aired tonight, filmed the burning of the bodies.

"It also filmed a US Army psychological operations unit broadcasting a message boasting of the burnt corpses into a village believed to be harbouring Taliban.

"SBS said Australian special forces in Afghanistan were operating from the same base as the US soldiers involved in the incident, although no Australians took part in the action."

Any journalists care to ask whether Australian forces know of such practices?
