Despite profuse accusations from left-wing ideologues and anti-war zealots (that our troops are responsible for thousands of civilian deaths in Iraq)--the truth will always trump demagogic hysteria.
The Washington Post just recently reported that homicide charges against US Forces in Iraq are extremely rare. Why? Because, as most military experts will tell us: We have the most professional and ethical military in the world.
Unlike Hezbollah and other so-called Islamic freedom-fighters (groups that the ideologues and zealots often champion), US Forces don't hide behind, kill, or exploit the innocent. Instead, they often risk life and limb in order to guarantee the safety of civilians.
So, regardless of the spurious claims being churned out by fringe elements of our culture, the US Military is, truth be told: A paradigm of professionalism.
