Great standard you're holding yourself up to. So, in your world we've gone from the nation that holds the moral high ground over people like Saddam and Osama, to the nation that doesn't need to apologize as long as it doesn't do anything worse.

You deliberately miss the point, johnfrink. This disgusting incident of mistreatment of prisoners is not an INTERNATIONAL incident. It needs to be dealt with, and scorned, but the President of the United States of America doesn't need to tell King Abdullah of Jordan that he's SORRY. To JORDAN? Can we cut the crap? This isn't an "offense to muslims everywhere?" This is a small scale, reprehensible crime within the context of a war. Please get a grip.

Remember this? Remember why we are there?

This WAR!
We must remain true to our men who are fighting for the freedom of this country. They have laid down their lives and limbs for the United States of America, and even for Iraq and Afghanistan's freedom. We must remain true to them as they have to us! God Bless our Military.

 

A double minded man is unstable in all his ways." - James 1: 5-8
If they didn't want to finish this fight, they should not have started it! 
In war it's 'surrender or die' ~ these prisoners have their lives, that is decent enough treatment for the vile murderous thugs that they are and on whose side they have chosen; they fought to kill our most gallant, lionhearted, young men and women.
There is no ambiguity concerning which side you are on, if you are not for America, then you are against her. We have the military to deal with those who are against us, and to deal with them effectively, that is their job and they do it with excellence. 

 

We make no apologies for defending ourselves from anyone; least of all Islamicfascists who's hands, hearts and minds, are dripping with innocent blood. ~ take no prisoners.

Having to apologize to the Muslim world over this incident is like having to apologize to Hannibal Lecter 'cos you sold him a defective paring knife.
