Fellow soldiers testified that the four Pennsylvania reservists punched and kicked prisoners who were being brought to an American camp in southern Iraq on May 12.

You wanna play the pick apart game? I can play it too? Where does it say that they testified about an unprovoked attack? Where in the world does it say that the filthy Iraqi terrorist wasn't attacking the other soldiers?????????????

Do you think she would have been demoted and discharged if they'd testified she was responding to an attack?

Hell, man -- even she doesn't deny it. The best she can do is say, "mistakes will be made," and appeal to our sympathy by pointing out the dangers (which are the same as those faced by the guards who don't beat their prisoners, BTW).

C'mon, now, C-man. It's not "pro-Iraqi" to agree that Americans should not beat prisoners, in the same way that it's not "pro-criminal" to argue that American cops shouldn't beat prisoners.

If the prisoners attacked them first, then they deserve whatever beating they got. But if the guards beat their prisoners for no good reason, then the cops deserve punishment.

Where does it say that they were?
