Sins of our Soldiers

During an interview with the U.S. Army's Criminal Investigative Division in June, Spec. James P. Barker, 23, admitted Holding an Iraqi teen down while she was raped by another soldier, Sgt. Paul Cortez, then raping her himself, before she was shot to death by former Pfc. Steven D. Green, then pouring Kerosene over her body.

Now let that sink in a minute. Really think about it for a change, because I know the average American either refused to read it or having read it refused to believe it, dismissing it as something along the line of propaganda of anti Americans, terrorists, the media, Democrats etc.. But now we (supposedly) have an accused participant confessing.& implicating his cohorts.

Now my question........
Are we angry because this happened? Or are we angry because it was made known? Or are we angry that our youth is being taught to kill, taught to put no value on human life. This IS what our military boot camp training is all about. While most of our young men and women joined the military to try and get ahead in todays society through education and job training, the LAST skill most enlisted for or wanted to learn was how to kill, maim, injure and otherwise terrify innocent people along with the guilty, all in the name of what? Freedom? Democracy? Bullshit! Its being done to continue to allow Americans to live as they want, as the greedy, ignorant, selfish people they are. Its an I, me, mine society and there is no room for anyone else to even be considered.
Where is the outrage? Where are the supposed "pro-lifers" who put Bush, and by proxy, his war into office? Where oh where is the "life" in "pro life? You hear the uproar over killing a non feeling, brain dead poor woman; you hear the uproar over killing a few cells in a Petri dish, but nothing, NO UPROAR AT ALL do you hear when a young Iraqi teen is raped and her and her whole family killed to cover it up.

Why single out the supposed "prolifers?" Simply because they are one of the few groups who "claim" to have feelings, compassion for fellow human beings. Most other Americans have no such compunction. Most other Americans will admit they don't know AND don't much care what happens outside of America, after all WAR IS HELL right? And if war is hell, and if "some" of our soldiers have "sinned" then who is responsible? The soldier? Or the "devil" who made him do it through brainwashing, who taught him the "art of war." and that ultimate devil is that "commander in chief" the Bush-whacker.
