Re: Marines urinate on dead Taliban
Life is to short to waste more time on judging these troops for their indiscretion. There are folks whose job that actually is.
I am more concerned watching Afghanistan unravel but it was a fool's mission to try to nation build that barren dessert (2009 surge et al) while I think the Chinese are already mining copper there, so somebody may profit some day.
France is talking about accelerating their pullout from there too... and Pakistan is jockeying for influence with the Taliban who are based in Pakistan and will probably end up in charge, after western support for Kabul fades away. We invaded to catch OBL and al-Queada, not fight the Taliban... Mission creep into the ditch.

PS Regarding urination, in that part of the world apparently it matters what direction you face when discharging your meat gun. That is another sin in the minds of some.
