Well, at least we're shaking hands for once. I've been around the country, and spent time with the US Army at Ft. Hood and have worked with ALLOT of different classes of people, and lived around them. A very large portion of them have been all over the world, usually through military travel or business.
If you go to Bad areas, weather the inner city or backwoods, you will find allot of people who have never left their county, much less the country, but in most other places,you will find the very opposate.
I am well aware of our militarys behavior.
Haterid towards Americans is a matter of getting it out of the way before it comes up. Nothing more.
Yes, you saw a video on Fox News, of course it applies to the entire American military and it confirms your belief this happened throughout the war.
I never said that, although I did monitor the war on both Fox News and CNN. I also work with a guy who puts weapons on the battle field and have friends who are snipers and medics in the Military, and also have a cousin who was in the Navy at the time. I also have friends who's kids are stationed their. I know about bad behavior our military has done and does that you'll never know about, as well as good. By all accounts, our military is behaving incredibly well throughout this war. Yes, their have been some problems, and some things get out of hand, but far less then any other war we've fought, or the Europeans for that matter.

I saw several pictures of rather nasty things happening in one of the Baghdad prisons, but of course, those are only isolated incidents and they don't apply to the entire American military. Right?
Their is a smearing campaign by the liberal media, which has made a highlight out of that isolated incident. Fox News and CNN are neutral stations, yet, they haven't been able to find that much bad behavior by US troops, and they themselves have been as quick as anyone to rush in and catch the story when something like that happens.
Either way, I do appreciate your effort to shake hands on these issues and discuss them like civilized people for a change, and I thank you and respect you for that.
