So they can do anything w/o being held accountable.

"Saurdaukar quote Oh, and Westy - you can suck a d*ck too"


 That's the most pathetic response yet.

 Quick. Go back and ask gunman26 or dlamb for a better line to use on me.

The point I am trying to make is these "freedom fighters" (mercenaries) are doing most of this and the American soldiers are getting blamed. They can abuse these prisoners all they want and cannot be held accountable.

Since they stripped the Iraqis naked and took pictures of their rectums, Id say we can be fairly confident that the GIs in question are democrats.

I don't want to open a can of worms here but :

in any war, the enemy is perceived as non-human : every effort is made to destroy him, and you don't want to think about his mother and children when you are about to fire at a man in anger.

So it is well encouraged in any army to despise the enemy, call him derogatory names (gook, boche, whatever).

It's just easier to believe your enemy is a cockroach.

it is morally condemnable, but effective in the field.

So war is hell, but it is no surprise at all to see pictures like the ones we just saw.

it happens in every war, any army.

It is best to resort to war as a last ditch measure (I don't think THIS war was justified yet, my own opinion), but once you are at war, you can skull**** the enemy if you please, you are here to win.

No, they're definately right wingers cause all the leftists oppose the Iraq war. Maybe they were planning on selling the rectum pictures to Democrats.

Not trying to over analyze this thing.  It is nothing but bad news for all involved......but, was this an isolated incident recorded with film or was the crime widespread at a single location or across the entire country?

Who were the iraqi victims?  Plain old run-o-the-mill draftees or were they IDd as people who had commited atrocities against other Iraqis or us military?  again, not trying to excuse, just want the full scope of the story before being european.

You don't understand, "freedom fighters" (mercenaries) are committing most of these crimes, and our military has no jurisdiction over them.
