Still - I agree it is shameful behavior.

Apparently prisoners were killed also, not just brutilized, tortured and humiliated. I think the problem is that us soldiers are told they are fighting for sept 11th and they have a hate ingrained into them towards terrorists, which rubs off as hating arabs as they tend to be fanatical. How can you teach a person to hate someone so much and then tell them to turn around, treat them humanley and with respect? It is terrible what happened to this prisoner but at the same time, the US goverment did release some prisoners to calm fighting in falujah so why not trade agian to save the life of a civilian. I am disgusted by their actions yet I can see why they feel the need to defend their own homeland from occupation.
