The bigger problem with torture and finding out what happened...
I know most of you were appalled at the sight of US soldiers torturing prisoners. I certainly was. But the really sad thing is, no one else I've spoken to about it really seems to care.

Has anyone else noticed this?

I don't think we'll ever really get to the bottom of what happened without a large public outcry and I think the sad truth is, not enough of the public CARES for that to happen. I don't know if it's that they think it's okay since it's our military doing it, or it's okay since they're doing it to "terrorists" or WHAT... but it just seems like most of America doesn't give a crap.

Hopefully it's just the people I talk to...
