So the first issue is whether this war is justified? Puts a great burden on our Christian troops. W and his boys lied about WMD's, the relationship between Saddam and Osama etc. There is little justification for the loss of American lives and the amount of $ this is costing us or the amount of credibity this is costing us. If we spent the $25 billion just requested by W in other ways my guess is that Saddam would have been overthrown by his own people. Yeah, he was a very evil ruler, but there are lots of bad guys out there. Why didn't W go after the Saudis. They supported terrorists, they support the vilest version of Islam. Wait, I forgot, they have more oil and are family friends of the Bushes. Silly me.
Seems to me that if you are a soldier over there you have to take the position that while I may disagree with the war, absent a direct order to abuse a prisoner, I probably have to do my job cause without specific substantial evidence to the contrary, well, it is my job.
