I fully grasp the depth of the situation. You are the one that is trying to justify the acts of moral men by those who are bankrupt of the same.

When man acts as an animal, then he too is an animal.

There is no comparison needed to see that wrong is wrong is wrong. You must be dense.

And if you further cannot see the damage done in the war against terror, then you are daft. We are engaged in a war for the hearts and minds. The kind of acts perpetrated on the prisoners and the photos there of has bin Laden smiling ear to ear.

Comparisons are not a useful argument here. Not because those acts were not gruesome too, but because we need to take the moral high ground in this war. It takes very little, done by a few, to erode that moral high ground.

That is why it is imperative that these soldiers and contractors be drummed out...and apologies issued.
