I like what CC said...never judge someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. Sure I can agree that extended tours may be a factor in all this...but war has always created atrocities...and innocent people have ALWAYS died.

Clearly not obvious to the millions of people who thought and may still think this war was for the benefit of the Iraqi people. Maybe articles like this can open a few more eyes.
