I think there's a difference between America playing dirty and our soldiers acting with dirt on their hands.
From the people I know in the service, they are trained to serve with the the utmost respect for innocent civilians. They are sent to do a job, kill as few people as possible, and get the hell out of there.
Obviously there are things going on that the media isn't going to show, but I don't think it's our soldiers tormenting people. What they're not showing is our raids that have caught more terrorists, maybe things we found out before hand that would have made everyone hysterical if they knew. (I'm talking about things other countries/groups have done to us.) One example- over the summer they said to be on the watch for terrorists in scuba suits along the eastern coast. Everyone thought this was hilarious and then there was no coverage of it on the news afterward, so we all assumed it didn't happen. My Bf's best friend was actually sent off the coast of Virginia, and was there when they caught 2 of the guys.
SO.....do our troops play dirty??? In general, no they do not, nor are they trained to. Does our country??? They're war games guys....everybody does.
