this is a really unfortunate incident---while i do not accept the spin being put on it by the military, i can nonetheless see how it would be possible that a wedding celebration that involved shooting guns in a war zone could be misunderstood with tragic consequences.
however, in general i agree with pan in that this does not operate on the same register as the torture business.
it does seem that the irrational character of this war reproduces itself at every level.
