Quote:Business as usual.Which is probably the second reason I am enraged over this. This should not be business as usual. This should be a rare to non-existant occurance, that when occurs requires swift action, investigation (to see if a commanding officer ordered the torture or if the soldiers acted alone), and apology (although that wont do much to solve the problem, it will bring some comfort that the government acknowledges the problem).
