Only the America-hating, left wing could find an "unusual disconnect" in the dual perceptions that (1) the alleged atrocities against Iraqi civilians by U.S. forces were isolated incidents and (2) the U.S.-led invasion was a mistake. Why would any one with a brain call that an "unusual disconnect"? I certainly don't think the invasion was a mistake; but if I did, there is no reason why that would lead me to think the alleged atrocities were not isolated. Simply amazing.
Dead on common sense.
