Well, if you noticed in my post, I specifically wrote giving the benefit of the doubt to our accused military.....the ones who have been charged, the ones who do the dirty business of combat, picking up the terrorists, the ones who have to follow whatever ROE's or detainee rules that are imposed for that day or operation.
The military consists of people who have been in many different conflicts over the years and they all know what is going on in that regard. And the entire military infrastructure consists of those kinds of people -- so they, also, know what is going on.
Thus, I would give the benefit of the doubt to both, the men being accused and the people who handle making sure that they keep control and order and that all of our military follows orders and does what they are supposed to do, while in the line of duty.
So, I'll simply wait to see what is "proven" by this case. That's the prudent thing to do.
