This is what a lot of people who have friends and family fighting in Afghanistan are saying. Many are complaining about the new "Medal Of Honour" game because it is possible to play as the Taliban in the multiplayer mode. Fox News also got involved by talking to a woman who had lost her son in Iraq. What are your opinions? Do you think this is disrespectful or is it ok?

Exactly, and Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 had a scene where you played as a terrorist.

That is so dumb, yeah sure you are going to be killing Marines if your the Taliban, but who really cares, it is just a game. It isn't like the kids who play as the Taliban are going to become one, or go crazy and start killing Marines, that is just ridiculous.
The news definitely didn't need to get involved, and just like you said, MW2 had that terrorist level, and everybody had a fit about it, it even got banned in some countries. But I don't think playing on the Taliban side would make any difference.
