The film sure makes him look like a complete asshole, sure enough, but shit, it's hard not to be desensitized to your own destructive capabilities.

That guy's probably a decent enough guy in "real life," but he's in a situation where it's a struggle to stay sane and retain your humanity. Look at those kids who were involved/responsible for the Abu Ghraib abuse. They sure looked like about the biggest assholes on the planet, but the Stanford Prison Experiment demostrated that they could be anyone, even you or me.
