There seems to be a greater level of PTSD in the great sand box debacle than in others so before anyone rushes to judgement we should see what mental state these soldiers are in. Of course their mental state is not good...their at war! They still need to be held accountable for their choices just like the rest of us. Shall we let ALL criminals off the hook for temporary insanity? What some of these folks go through is for life, not temporary. I know, I know some who have been there, I get it. We still need to stay human...

Iran was on the Pentagon list of taking out seven (7) countries in five (5) Years. That was in 2007. Can't see it happening myself...

I'll not say anything on it, because we do not know what happened for sure leading up to that point. Besides, lest we not forget they televised a beheading.

If I am dead after a life or death confrontation and you want to let off a little steam by pissing on my corpse . . . feel free, I wont mind.

If someone hurt one of my children they'd be wishing they weren't born. I believe that there are times when violence is necessary and justified. But, with this type of stuff, where does it all end?

Not even close to as much as my death. We need to stop the wars, and not worry about the screwed up soldiers screwed up by the wars.

In my opinion, those exploiting this are far worse than those doing it.....

My one son peed on my others son head from the top bunk.....is bad that I had to leave the room for the fit of giggles that emerged. Of course this is atrocious and wrong, but at least they weren't alive and emotionally scarred.

What about the oath these guys took... some want to hang Manning for breaking his oath, the same oath these guys took. The rules either apply to ALL or they apply to NONE! Next time ya'll start whining about this disrespectful generation who has NO respect for life... I'll remind ya how ya thought it's no big deal to laugh and piss on a dead body.

Someone else does a dastardly deed and it makes it alright for us to be barbaric. Wouldn't that make us as bad as the 'enemy' "an eye for an eye will leave the whole world blind" ~Ghandi~

The same people who want to hang Manning from the highest lamppost have stayed very quite on this occasion. Cannot stand double Standard People.
