Fitz, I appreciate your attempts to defend our soldiers, but in war situations at POW camps, there is a long history of occurrences like this, mainly because of poor oversight on the part of MI (military intelligence) and lack of troop rotation.
In military psychological studies, it has been show to be inevitable, because as a soldier and a human being, the mind starts to dehumanize the enemy. Unfortunately, some of these prisoners, just as in Guantanamo, were simple people, not soldiers or terrorists.
There is a new article in The Guardian with an article about a contractor from the prison who has come forward verifying that there IS a systemic problem with the way that prison is run.

The Guardian?

Better deal with known facts and not gullibly lap up stories without verification.

A review of my posts show I am no defender of the pictures we have seen, but there is no denying there is a lib attempt to pile on and embellish the treatment of these prisoners.
