Yeah that's a beautiful reaction to the fact that human beings have been tortured and killed. 'Big deal'. It is a big deal. This isnt a political issue of soldiers. Just because Sddam did it more doesnt make it okay. It's a human rights issue. If our boys had been tortured like this by Iraqi soldiers, we wouldnt be saying 'this doesnt reflect the rest of the Iraqi troops' or 'It's okay, no big deal'.

Why cant people look past what country or what side or whatever these people are from? How can you look at the pictures and not care?

And that General is full of it if he didnt know the Geneva convention. However... how much common sense does it take to know that forcing the prisoners to commit oral sex on eachother at gunpoint is not okay? Do soldiers... does anyone have to be told that beating a man to death, most especially a man unable to defend himself, is not okay?
