Ok, I understand something better now - i was a bit surprised earlier at how Rumsfield and Bush were being blamed for the torture going on in Iraq. After reading up on it, apparently, the Int'l Red Cross has warned the U.S. for almost a year now that the soldiers were committing abuses both in Afghanistan and Iraq. Furthermore, a report was sent to Rumsfield in February about the abuses, upon which he has done nothing. More and more people are saying that the abuses are much more widespread than people think now. Military intelligence actually told some of the soldiers to deprecate the Iraqis.
i would still say that this is the logical effect of war. Every war has its share of abuse, no matter which one you look at. We should know as humans who study history that when we declare war on someone else, some of our soldiers, maybe even a great many, are going to abuse and torture the ones they deem their enemy. As if the bombing weren't itself abuse and torture.
