American soldiers' intentional killing of Iraqi families

Okay, so I'm really disgusted at a news article that I read this morning. http://news.independent.co.uk/world/middle_east/article352819.ece
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/4830782.stm

After an attack by Iraqi insurgents, American soldiers go out and shoot Iraqi innocents and families in retaliation. How is that supposed to help anything? How does that help the country re-build?? And how do you live with yourself after you've done such a thing??

This whole Iraq thing is such a mess. There is no inherent plan or control by US administrators, or so it seems. American soldiers are out of control, and their commanders either turn a blind eye, or take part in this Hell. Guantanamo Bay, torturing prisoners, detaining prisoners under the Terrorist Act so they have no access to any help and so they lose all their rights, and now the innocent killing of Iraqi families - children, parents, grandparents!

Iraq is a warzone of hate. Each side hates one another with so much malevolence and spite. It truly is Hell on Earth, and Bush helped to start that fire.

As I said "Vietnam 2 The curse of Saddam". Sounds familar... killing innocent women and children due to paranoia and/or frustration about be there. It is a sad freaking state and the fact that the Bush regime and his cronies are making money with their companies on this war gives them no incentive to ever pull out. Greedy bastards. If there is a heaven and hell I hope they suffer for an eternity and I'll make sure Im there roasting marshmellows on there burning souls. By the way I have nothing more to ad and I compliment you on how you wrote this. You should have an opinion column in the newspaper as you are better than half the hack out there. Especially those free papers. Death to 24 as it is a tabloid rag and Death to Dose as it tries to be cool and sadly is quite pathetic. out
