I think that atrocities have always been a part of war. No one can supervise all of the troops (collective term ) all the time and it doesn't take much to have one person instigate and others to follow just like kids in school. There are always the leaders who bullies and the kids who follow as they want to be part of the group and will do things that they never would do on their own.... You many well be right and of course, its another reason not to go to war. However, what has really disgusted me is that the Generals knew and turned a blind's eye......that, in fact, our CIA was encouraging it. Up til now, most Iraqis did not go that route with American POWs. Of course, now, that's all about tp change. In their custody is PFC. Maupin from OH........I don't even want to think what they're doing to him.
