"War is hell, E.
Deal with it."

I saw the movie '300' over the weekend; it was very graphic. It also reminded me that there is a certain kind of nobility a soldier may possess regardless of which cause or side of an issue they may be defending. There is nothing honorable about torture and it is never justified by any incidental cause, it is in fact abhorrent to all of humanity across time and circumstance; and is, therefore, condemnable in all occurrences.

That's why we signed the Geneva Conventions.

Which won't necessarily apply to our soldiers now. I have to deal with that, too. So will they.
