Rejected petition Free marine A

More details

The TALIBAN are Mercenaries, Mercenaries are NOT recognised by the Geneva Convention, Mercenaries are whichever way you look at it are (HIRED KILLERS) therefore are not protected by the Geneva Convention.
So I call upon the UK Government to show some PATRIOTISM get this fellow PATRIOT (MARINE) a Pardon, let him resume duty if he so wishes, let him keep his pension to support his family when he eventually leaves the forces, after serving his country. If it wasn’t for the likes of this MARINE and fellow service men and women, we wouldn’t have the freedom we take for granted in this country.
You the government, have sent these people to war, now in his time of need, Step up and back him for his loyalties to OUR Kingdom.
