Excuse me, but the torture and murder of two innocent Afghans by American soldiers could have and should have been avoided.

Neither you nor I have enough facts to make that determination. But what we do know is that the last several wars America has fought have been the most humane in history.


Yes, I do. The soldiers in question were brought to trial and found guilty. It turns out they knew the two Afghans were innocent........it seems they [the soldiers] were simply having some 'fun'. The court threw their sorry asses in jail.

We weren't very careful during this war. From gitmo to abu ghraib to Afghanistan

GITMO and Abu Ghraib had nothing to do with "us" not being careful.


That's right. There was an attitude from Bush/Cheney on down that this kind of behavior was acceptable. And people like you turned the other way.

American actions in the current wars has been above reproach

Not true. There have been a number examples of bad behavior by American soldiers. The murdering of the two Afghans was not the only example.
