It was a brutal murder - bestial - even if the target was a soldier. But haven't you heard, Magda, there is no more 'ordinary crime' only terrorism and crimes against the state. I sense these two men were not set up for this....this is truly 'blowback' in its most bestial and horrid form. Sadly, by the 'rules of war' [a sick idea, but I digress...], it is fair game to kill a soldier/combatant in the field of battle/war - but to be honest, we [US/UK/NATO/some others] have declared the entire World their battleground and anyone in it as a 'combatant'. Such blowback was inevitable. The guys didn't even try to get away...they were there for 20 minutes talking to the crowd and encouraging photos and talking to them about the why of their butchery. The UKs reaction will be what the USAs would be...more troops, police, surveillance, hate - inside and outside. Nothing learned and the World not a safer nor better place. The same does happen in far off places unseen and at the sharp end of a drone missile or bomb, etc. Hacking a person to death with a butchers cleaver is especially brutal - the end result is the same. No one in power in the 'West' is even thinking - let alone acting - toward or for Peace; instead it is all about endless war with an unseen enemy that is everywhere. How come no one is attacking Costa Rica and doing 'terrorist' actions there? Simple, they harm no one - they don't even have a military.
