It's great that anyone would admit to having done things in their past about which they are ashamed. I knew a lot of this as I have said in the past from my experience in the Korean War at Indiantown Gap Military Reservation.

This is WHY I am so opposed to war as I know what goes on.Now the latest allegations are that we not only brutalized the prisoners but raped a lot of Iraq women.

This does not surprise me. I have heard all this before. The soldiers like to brag about what they have done mindless that they are atrocities. And when someone says to me, well this couldn't happen because we are the good guys and AMERICAN TROOPS hand out Hershey Bars and good will I know that those are in the minority. Men are men and war is horrible and horrific things happen. It was ALL PREDICTABLE.. How come so few knew what it would end up like ? I knew but am still surprised about the amount of evil done.
