I'd have notified our allies that to send over a representative so that someone could have independently verified the identity.
I'd have had some Arabic observers around for oversight, and I would have let them watch the live video feeds and verify the identity of the body.

Considering that Disney created propaganda films for the US Gov't during WWII
Which, give or take, was 70 years ago.
and Walt was one of the most fervent supporters of Joseph McCarthy,
Both of whom have been dead for a long time.
this move is actually very much in line with Disney's track record.
That's not much of a "track record" you've cited there.
I know I shouldn't make fun of people with learning disabilities, but you are one stupid motherfucker.
While that would be unfortunate, it really isn't the fault of the tool.
If the 'tool' is overwhelmingly used to facilitate crime, then it's time to ban the tool. End of discussion. No point-by-point rebuttal or cyber-anarcho-libertarian frothing-at-the-mouth is going to change this. Whine all you want, but the hammer is going to come down on these criminal scum and their sympathizers, and there is nothing you can do about it. I suggest you get over it and re-focus your efforts on making sure that you're in compliance with the the law, in thought and deed.
The reality is, every time people steal IP, the owners lose money. Period. Financial harm is always inflicted to the owners. There isn't much difference between someone stealing a car and someone stealing a movie or application. Imaginary masturbation to the contrary doesn't make it true. Stealing is stealing. Someone is always harmed. The only real difference is the amount of damage incurred. Every time you steal IP, at a minimum, you are devaluing it. As a result, the IP owners have been harmed.
This is the worlds smallest violin, playing the world's saddest song for those poor, poor IP owners.
FTFY.
