If there is anything that the sum total of human civilization did not subdue; it is human savagery. The dark side of humanity remains as dark and as unconquerable as ever. When 17 civilians 9 of whom were children were slaughtered and 2 of whom were raped; the media projected the culprit as under tension for repeated tour of duty in Afghanistan and a family man? The media is soliciting empathy for the demons of war. Record shows that these guys who remain and volunteer for repeated tour of duties enjoy immensely their murdering work posing for pictures with the mangled bodies of their victims like hunters posing with the mangled bodies of their prey. Where can you go in the world today where killing another human is a sport but in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Palestine? Would the world ever know about Abu Ghuraib (Iraq) or the pissing soldiers over Afghans dead bodies if no pictures were taken? For every picture we see published; there has to be many more maybe a hundred where no photos were taken. What we see is just a tip of the iceberg.
U.S. Troops Posed With Body Parts of Afghan Bombers
An American soldier says he released the photos to the Los Angeles Times to draw attention to the safety risk of a breakdown in leadership and discipline. The Army has started a criminal investigation.

April 18, 2012 " Los Angeles Times" -- The paratroopers had their assignment: Check out reports that Afghan police had recovered the mangled remains of an insurgent suicide bomber. Try to get iris scans and fingerprints for identification.
The 82nd Airborne Division soldiers arrived at the police station in Afghanistan's Zabol province in February 2010. They inspected the body parts. Then the mission turned macabre: The paratroopers posed for photos next to Afghan police, grinning while some held — and others squatted beside — the corpse's severed legs.
A few months later, the same platoon was dispatched to investigate the remains of three insurgents who Afghan police said had accidentally blown themselves up. After obtaining a few fingerprints, they posed next to the remains, again grinning and mugging for photographs.
