I'd like to thank Ted Koppel for reading the names of "The Fallen," and also thank ABC for finding a way to air the reading. I never knew any of those people but I am saddened by their death. It did not sound like a political diatribe against war. I also remember that those men and women are there to fight against 'War.' We entered the situation trying to tople Hussein, But we are now defending against Iraqui who want us to leave. It is difficult to see the difference between the two kinds of resistance. I hope that people can find it in themselves to forgive the stupid soldiers who tortured prisoners. Milgrams prison experiment seems to show that the situation influences the behavior of both prisoners and guards. depraved behavior is symptomatic in an insane situation.
