I just don't feel guilty or sorry for any of them because they are the enemy. If a few detainees are forced to get naked and it saves a few lives down the road then it was worth it and a very small price to pay. I may not be seeing the whole picture in a politically correct manner, but that's how I see it.

They are conscripts, and soldiers... the same as the American troops. I think the guy made a pretty good point below you. Would you equally support the Iraqi's torturing and sometimes killing American soldiers they captured to try and save Iraqi lives? (and I am sure captured Americans would have the possibility of meeting such a fate)
And the torturers, should in my opinion be facing the Iraqi justice system, for crimes committed in Iraq against Iraqi victims,
