Where has the outrage gone re-the soilders accused
Have we become so desensitized that this story just moves to the back burner to be swept away by the war machine?

MY GOD! What those soldiers did was sick and very damaging in so many ways. Murdering a family for sex with a young girl (and not done by just 1 or even 2 mental soldiers but 5, so we know that there is a campaign going on to regard all Iraqis as animals). This is certainly not an isolated case either. This is happening so much more than we know over there.

Do you remember squirrel hunting during Vietnam war? Where they flew low to ground in copters and shot women and children in the back as they ran away.

What have we become?

why has the real america suddenly been revealed? Some americans already knew this is partially what america was about but the fake america was being heard over the radio and television. ( all fun and games) Go look at the tv shows of the past.

3. I was just wondering about that myself.
To most Americans, if it is not in the news, or kept updated in the news, then the incident has gone away. Poof! Gone.
