Iraqi abuse

I haven't written on this topic yet. The abuse was horrible and inexcusable.

It also bears saying, though, that fighting a war without dehumanizing your enemy is extremely hard. You have to dehumanize your enemy to want to kill them. War crimes are part and parcel of waging war, even in the best circumstances. We need to account for this dynamic when we're thinking about fighting a war.
