Reply #26: So you are going to attempt to prove

The SOA is bad simply because some people that graduated from it committed war crimes? That is not proof of a problem at a school.

First, you did not address the reforms that have been made.

Second, you did not say why you think these murdering soldiers would not have existed were it not for the SOA. I have read some of these things before, the evidence for making your accusations is quite flimsly.

I believe our soldiers are some of the best in the world. I believe that when they are ordered into action, they are as ready as possible for the horrors they will witness, and trained to take appropriate action but to respect innocent life and protect non-combatants. I believe that we know how to do this training, so that soldiers will be prepared to act correctly when faced with these situations. I also believe that we should never use military action unless it is a last resort.
