We Wonder Why They Hate Us

According to this there are American soldiers who kept pieces of the brains of Iraqis they killed as war trophies. Also, there are reports of overzealous counterattacks where Americans are fired upon from a crowd and they gun down everybody, including entire families of innocent bystanders. Now I know heinous things happen in war, and I know people get killed who may not have deserved it, but this can only make you furious. Supporting the troops in this case means taking them out of a situation that has made some of them lose their minds. I want to thank Pen over at DailyKos for making me aware of this because we need to know what's being done in our name.
