Read what it says in the article,"All five soldiers belonged to same company and had returned to Fort Benning from Iraq just days before the slaying. Their unit is part of the Army's 3rd Infantry Division, which led the assault on Baghdad".Now say what you will but these guys just came back from combat where killing and carnage was an everyday thing.Some can handle it and some can't,thats a fact.The act of taking a life becomes easier with each act.I am not making excuses for these guys actions but the army does not do enough to rehabilitate combat veterans when they are brought back home.

I do understand what your saying, BUT, I know one of these killers and he should have never been sent to war. He had already done enough damage in the US before ever going to war and the army knew this and still sent him. I'm sure in the end it will all come out. There's just so much that all of you don't know. There's no excuse for this killing. Just take another real good look at the eyes of these killers.
