Current Events » in reply to General suspended, 9 Court marshals filed -- why should 'WE' be ashamed?

A - That it happened, at all.

B - The pictures cover only a brief time frame.

C - That as Nick says, this is clearly only the tip of the iceberg.

D - These actions clearly reflect a culture in the detention system.

E - Disipline of the offenders no more corrects the situation than imprisoning a murderer brings the victim back to life. It's a very, very poor substitute for not having the problem in the first place.

And for the rest of the alphabet, the ammunition this provides America's enemies will cost American lives.

Imagine the emotions which were justifiably stirred at the idea of the corpses of mutilated Americans being dragged through the streets. Now, imagine what these images will do to Muslims.

People on both sides tend to believe isolated instances are the norm. That is an effect of all propaganda. In this case, EVEN IF these were the only instances, the damage is done.
