I'm not blaming them. I blaming their officers (or who ever did that) for not reportig this. For trying to hide this because those warcriminals were our beloved allies

Noone, how does it help the people down there if we replace one evil leader with another one?

The world isn't black and white, just lots of shades of grey. In theory, we shouldn't cooperate with people that do bad things. In reality, we often have no choice. More often than not, *both* sides in a conflict are "evil". To stop such a conflict, one side has to win, and this had better be the lesser of the two evils. (As is the case in Afghanistan.)

But those problems keep coming back, we supported Saddam because we thought Iran was more evil. and now we have to bomb saddam, we supported numerous "evil" people (in some cases we even trained them), we should start thinking of a different strategy.
