Let's put it this way. The original post compared actions of the military (putting pictures on TV), with actions of civilians (hanging soldiers from a bridge). The actions aren't similar at all and the groups involved aren't similar. If there were a similar act by soldiers, then the comparison could be made. Even handcuffing children with plastic, as much as I hate that, isn't nearly the same as burning people to a crisp, dragging them in the streets and hanging them on a bridge. To say our soldiers have acted just as badly as those involved in this situation is just flat wrong and only being made to shit on soldiers. A fairer comparison would be between the behavior of our worst civilians here at home and some civilians in Iraq. There is an argument to be made there and I haven't denied it.
