Boil it down as you will. Making these soldiers take the fall for suspension of Geneva convention protections is wrong...and you know it. General Tagabu said it best...lack of leadership, lack of training. Are you now telling me that these soldiers came to Iraq with their own hoods, leashes and electric wiring? They picked up this stuff at the local Baghdad bazzar while on lunch break? Come on. Hersh reported that Rumsfeld suspended the protection of the Geneva conventions for the Iraqi prisoners. Do you not see the harm that this has caused our nation? Only an idiot would use Saddam's former torture prison for the same against the "liberated Iraqi people". Orca
