Concerning the Iraqi president - anyone out there taking that jester serious...? He does a politican's typical job: glossing things over.

Soldiers tend to stubbornly believe exclusively what motivates them for their mission. Cause if they start to question the mission, the morale goes down. I have sympathy for that. Who wants to realize that he is being send into war for lies, and on a lost mission? Realising that really can ruin your day - and the days you still have to spend there. so keep up the sweet dream, as long as possible. Maybe you can win some more minutes before the rough awakening.

And what has all that to do with the detoriating situation concerning torture over there, practiced from all sides? It has been reported soince over a year, by many different medias, correspondents, organisations over the last year - not only by the UN now.
I guess if you knew that you were doing a mission for a bunch of lies, it might affect your moral. Good thing that what they are fighting for is the right thing!!! Most of those soldiers have a "Brain" Skybird and can figure out that they are doing the world a favor! Maybe one day you will figure it out too! :p
