The only changes I see is that our troops are now doing the dirty work themselves where previously our troops used to use third partys for such things as kidnapping and torture since our military code forbids such behavior.
Do a little research on Operation Phoenix or Operation Condor to learn of many previous cases of disappearances, kidnappings, torture and intimidation that were coordinated and supported by the US, but where all the dirty work was done by local authorities.
Once the US has all of Saddams old henchmen on their payroll I'm sure the military will go back to the old method of keeping their hands clean.
Its amazing how many americans that have justified the war on iraq based on such things as saddam goons kidnapping and torturing people and their family members and attacking other nations are willing to flip and think its cool when its our own nation doing the dirty work.
How is it that we are more civilized than Saddam was again?
