All soldiers in every army will behave in a similar ways.

Yes, I know you believe that people are not moral agents, but victims of their environments, helpless, without any moral compass. That anybody would rape, torture, mutiliate, rob, murder little children, set old men on fire, given the opportunity.

This is why you are a liberal.

I disagree. I believe that people are moral agents, that atrocities are committed by evil people who are operating outside the normal social constraints that prevent them from doing evil, and that most people do not do these things, even when given the opportunity.

This is why I am a conservative.

Like you, Kerry believes that "everybody does it."

Like me, the SwiftBoat Vets believe that they didn't do it, they never saw it, and Kerry is a scum sucking bottom feeding liar.

The American people will vote their consciences, and I hope they have the opportunity to fully understand what is at stake.
