22. I understand what you are saying
But on the other hand...just to get people conditioned to kill (other people that they don't know no less) the military has to use brainwashing techniques against the rank and file enlisted person.

Obviously most people are taught throughout their life in American society that they should never kill except for in the case of self defense (unless they were raised by the Manson family)

These people are in a strange land, most of the peons wouldn't have known an Arab in general if they bit them in the ass until they landed in Iraq, so they buy the line...these are "evil people" they want to kill you, they planned 911 etc etc.

Never mind that it's BS about 911--It's all brainwashing.

The soldiers are the worker bees and the queens are bush et al

I am not saying the soldiers were in the right, or that they were moral (or smart) I am just saying, it is what it is and shit rolls downhill...the people at the top were ultimately responsible for this disgusting debacle and they should carry the burden of blame.
