True, in the beginning their were soldiers on tape abusing and torturing prisoners. True, some soldiers have thrown their morality, if they had any, to the wayside. There are dirty cops, dirty priests and obviously some dirty soldiers. I think there is a small percentage of scumbags in just about every profession. IMO you can't let the bad apples spoil the whole bunch, or some shit like that. Not agreeing with anything that is going on over there, just hoping good men don't come back and get treated the way the soldiers did that came back from Vietnam.
