You cannot justify the actions of those scum because the enemy has done worse.

nobody is justifying anything.  At least not me.  I just see more outrage over this than charred bodys being dragged through the street and dismembered.  At least these guys are still breathing

/sarcasm mode ON

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.

/sarcasm mode OFF

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.

That is because we normally have standards in america. When an american is dragged through the streets by another american the outrage is just as high. When an uneducated savage does it during wartime in a warzone, it is not that shocking. And so when America allows torture and murders of its POW's there will be much outrage.
