Also... "It was cruel and inhumane torture.."
Which indeed it was.
(although S O P in 'Is The War Lost' thread reckons that it would have been much better if they had 'killed Berg without boring him first')

But the standing of innocent Iraquis on boxes and telling them if they move, they will die, is not torture.
Neither is beating Iraquis to death, apparently.

I see!
