Yo, Steve,

As you know, folks will do some purdy danged anit-social things in war zones. I reckon if them kids was told to do it because it would break down the Iraqis and make them talk then they prolly thought they was doing the right thing... You know, shooting folks and dropping bombs on civilians ain't all that right but after being part of those things, these kids prolly just said, "What the hey, it's war."

I'm concerned about those with the brass who came up with these methods of interigation and where those folks might have come up with these tactics. Those are the folks who have to most questions to answer and I hope they are held accountablerather than the kids who I'm sure werr just following orders...
