Two Words: Geneva Conventions
Film rolls as troops burn dead - World - smh.com.au:

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.I really worry for these guys. If they belligerently invade sandy countries for their oil, and have systematically broken every rule of war ever set, what kind of treatment can they reasonably expect from the groups they are fighting? What cause do they have to complain when the same thing happens to them? Should they not be happy and relieved when their enemies do not stoop to their level?
:
The burning of a body is a deep insult to Muslims. Islam requires burial within 24 hours.Under the Geneva conventions the burial of war dead "should be honourable, and, if possible, according to the rites of the religion to which the deceased belonged"
