I've had enough of this.

"Sick joy ride for US troops"

I work with 3 exmilitary (offficers) personell (all Artilary, similar to the Marines). I can't fathom this sort of generalistic, simpleminded, soundbite bollocks.

My closest workmate spent 8 months in Bosnia and saw some horrific shit. He had to take 45 approx prisoners after a small enclave of serbs surrendered. They were forced to take the men in as they were advancing on territory. As RSM (look it up) he was responsible for the treatment of the serbs. His own men had to sacrifice food and gear so as they could be looked after and kept alive, no one treated them badly, and many became friends.

I don't think there are many people (forces or otherwise) who take pleasure in the torture and belittling of other people. Question the powers at be sure, but how dare you insult the troop of USAM like that.
