Whoa there one moment. I’m probably harsher than most of those on this website when military members break the law.
For instance do you recall the soldiers who raped and killed the teenage girl and killed her family to cover it up? At the time I had taken heat from others because I stated that, if guilty, they needed hanging. They confessed and IIRC one got the death penalty. Another got something like 300 years.
However I will NOT condemn the vast majority of our military (including those who have honorably served as guards at Abu Ghraib) based upon a handful of losers and scum bags. There were about 12 involved in those crimes.
The superior treatment given to POWs by the U.S. is not new. I’ve spoken to old Germans who were soldiers during WWII. They told me how treatment in U.S. POW camps was far superior to that which they received by the British.
Go ahead and join those who condemn the U.S. for the smallest transgression of some cowardly scum who never deserved the honor of wearing their uniform. Give every excuse for the atrocities committed by the enemy. That’s your prerogative.
On your FReep page you state your work as an independent film maker brings you in contact with the military. Please be kind enough to clean the knife before sticking in the Soldiers’ backs.
