Sorry, it is the duty of an American to protect and foster freedom where it does not exist. An American is not a geographical ideal, it is grounded in freedom and the defense of such. Freeing even a single Iraq was worth it if you ask me.
That is why people join the military. To not only protect us but to protect the very ideals we stand for.
No Jail Time in Death of Iraqi General
January 24, 2006/ The jury apparently agreed with defense arguments that Welshofer had believed he was following orders to use creative interrogation techniques when he put Iraqi Maj. Gen. Abed Hamed Mowhoush face-first in a sleeping bag, wrapped him in electrical wire and sat on his chest in November 2003. The 57-year-old general died after 20 minutes in the bag.
Sorry, but the word hypocritical comes to mind
