US soldiers getting away with murder again

I am not surprised to see that 17 soldiers hooked to 3 deaths of prisoners in Afghanistan and Iraq will not be punished! Oh sure we had a couple of them sent to prison for the horror at Abu Gharib but that was a token thing. To make excuses for soldiers when committing murder on prisoners is so out-right ethically and morally wrong!! This is NOT what my country is supposed to be about...we are to be better than this, and when our military looks the other way, I am filled with guilt as it is being done in my name...my name! I didn't sanction this type of behavior and never will. I think of the quote by Edmund Burke: All that is essential for the triumph of evil is that good men to do nothing.
