Iraq's "benevolent" liberators
Of course you all know about the mistreatment of SOME Iraqi prisoners by SOME US military personnel. Why, even the President learned about it from TV, as his Defence Secretary had not deemed it necessary to inform him. In fact, with all the new evidence coming to light it seems obvious that the president is a mere puppet, with Brumsfield and others being the puppet-masters.
The reason I want to throw this issue into an open discussion is that I don't buy the "few bad apples" explanation of these abominable atrocities.
While tossing this around in my mind, the following possible explanations occurred to me:
1. There is something inherently flawed in the process of selecting and training US military personnel;
2. The soldiers, feeling frustrated that they are giving their lives in a lost cause, are using Iraqi prisoners as scapegoats to express their angst.
After M.E. has filled the page with quotes and URLs to discredit everything I have said, perhaps some other TR members will take the discussion seriously and offer other explanations for this behaviour.
Anyhow, my congratulations to the most righteous and noble country on earth for first, earning the scorn and distrust of the entire world, and now attracting the hatred of all the Arabic peoples.
