I find your response interesting. Why would it be disgusting for an American to stand up for these people? Wouldn't it be a patriotic thing to do as the actions of these soldiers are both morally and constitutionally unlawful? Wouldn't it let the rest of the world know that such actions are unacceptable for Americans, especially those who serve the Nation?
Just curious, is all!

It depends on the motive behind an American lawyer filing a lawsuit for millions on their behalf. If it was for that lawyer to make a name or money for him/herself, then that's just uncalled for. And I don't think that money is the answer for everything...maybe there is some other retribution (or whatever the word is) that we can offer them. Maybe these people don't really
want money. We just need to think creatively on that.
Sorry if my earlier post was a little snippy....some lawyers around here (Arkansas, not GC!!!) were getting on my nerves. Man, sometimes you just gotta do the right thing.....ya know??? Anyway, my point was more that American lawyers should be willing to help these people if they want the help and not just come up with something that we (Americans)
think they want. Discussion is key.
