Hey guys,
There’s a TV special on CNN all this week looking at U.S. soldiers who were convicted of murder on the battlefield. They’re looking at military policies and whether or not it was murder or battlefield justice. An investigation reveals why the Army's rules for holding detainees may have led to the murders of four Iraqis by three decorated Army sergeants. It’s on tonight at 10pm EST.

"I don't know about you, but I wasn't at Abu Ghraib, but I can tell you half the time I'm walking down the streets, that's what people think when they're lookin' at us: 'Oh, there's those damn Americans that abused those poor prisoners.' "

He added, "Frat boys get abused worse during pledge week in college than that crap. But it's what the media made of it. What the hell do you think they're gonna make of this?"
