Tejek, RE: "The Pentagon has said that it's investigating 37 cases in which prisoners died while in custody in Afghanistan or Iraq. " And they said it's not a repeated pattern? Why did it take the media an entire year before they started to acknowledge it was a pattern. What's up with that? On another note, someone told me that Muslim countries breed terrorists because the Muslim culture puts the group ahead of the individual. Rather embarrassing how out to lunch some Americans are, when it comes to understanding foreign cultures. I don't think that person realized that it's very common in Asian cultures as well, to unselfishly put the family or society ahead of a person's own selfish interests, a value system that has absolutely nothing to do with terrorism. In fact, terrorism is a violent, selfish act performed by people that reportedly are isolated from their families. Regards, Amy J
