We still find it almost impossible to believe that Americans do these things. We have brothers, dads, and grandpas who were in Vietnam, Korea, WW II, WW I, and none of them seem to have done this stuff. We love Sgt. Saunders from "Combat" and Sgt. Rock from the comics.
We hate all the torturing Nazis from the war movies, and the cruel Romans from the Bible. I am starting to believe Americans may be just as bad as other humans, but the vast majority of Americans will not believe. They will blame you for not supporting our troops, and vote for W. and McCain.
Do we have a vast, quiet subculture of tough, vicious soldiers, spies, and cops who torture and murder and watch each others' backs?
