I think he has a bit of a point.
I don't agree with him, but he's right that some people, like those who have been personally effected by the War On Terror, could find that offensive.

He's wrong to call a banning of the game though, or if he does, he should extend that to other forms of media.

And what about the Afghan people?
They've been affected by all this; is it ok to play a game in which the objective is to kill them all?

It's ok with the Americans
and they buy more games than the Afghans. EA care about money, not morals.

That is true
By the time the Afghans have PCs and time to play games, the war will be so far in the past that they'll probably laugh at the story and the silly graphs.

Yup, of course they have, but I can pretty much guarntee this game would be banned there too, even if the local population had the means of playing the game.
It was a crime to watch the World Cup outside of the Green Zone, let alone play a game like this.

I agree that he's wrong on this one, but he does have a point.

Yes.
I played a game the other day and killed all the black people. It was only a game. I love chess.
