I tend to disagree in so much as I do not belive the imorral acts of a few soldiers is related to the presidency. Nor do I believe that they relate to the military completely. I think these are poor moral judgement that were made by people with poor values, and that it has stained the image of the entire U.S. Armed forces.

I also think that the officers are just as much to blame as the enlisted men who carried out those heinous actions. And I think the officers should be given a greater punishment than the enlisted.
