Ohhhh I see how it works now.
So we would be justified to carpet bomb huge portions of Fallujah or Najaf, for the chared bodies?
I mean tit for tat and all. Blood fueds, never forgetting, and such are all great "traditions" in that part of the world. The US will just fit right in.

Seriously. Why is it just the US that must fight, use force and occupy "humanely"?
When the other side committs atrocities, does something wrong, uses suicide bombers, kills innocent women and children (remember the ones incinerated within their buses on the way to school a couple of weeks ago in a car bombing?) and kills hostages, some people on this BBS justify it with "they fighting for their freedom". "They're angry" "they countering US imperialism" and a whole lot of other Bull excrement.
What happened in that prison was wrong, and I hope the stupid people who did it are prosecuted. But lets put in to perspective with all the other killings, torturing, suicide bombers, and atrocities that the "opposition" has been using over there and continues to do so.
This situation pales in comparison, and some are opportunistically using it as just another chance to bash the US and our president.
