It IS a shameful event. But in no way does it affect the importance or righteousness of this war. Those who would condemn the American military because of it or question the war based on this occurrence are simply ignorant and naive. Our military continues to be the best trained and most humane of any on earth -- these five or six individuals notwithstanding. Try to imagine that there is a God and He's listening to your explanation for the atrocities committed by the US and Brit. soldiers against "the insects". I only can assume that you are evil and don't have a clue as to what you are saying. And frankly, those of us opposed to this war are not much better. We knew that this war was wrong from the get go but did not object strongly enough. So you have managed to bring us down to your slimy level. I hope you're happy!

<font color=brown>Evil is as evil does!<font color=black> ************************************************************ "But these soldiers aren’t simply mavericks. Some accused claim they acted on the orders of military intelligence and the CIA, and that some of the torture sessions were under the control of mercenaries hired by the US to conduct interrogations. Two “civilian contract” organisations taking part in interrogations at Abu Ghraib are linked to the Bush administration. California-based Titan Corporation says it is “a leading provider of solutions and services for national security”. Between 2003-04, it gave nearly $40,000 to George W Bush’s Republican Party. Titan supplied translators to the military. CACI International Inc. describes its aim as helping “America’s intelligence community in the war on terrorism”. Richard Armitage, the current deputy US secretary of state, sat on CACI’s board." sundayherald.com
