When troops are found to have done any wrong like that with proof then they are punished for a very long time.
For example, the people at Abu Ghraib are being sentenced and tried as I write this. They are getting 11 year jail terms for what they did.
There are and have been hundreds of thousands of American troops in Iraq. There are going to be isolated incidents like this but as I just explained those people get what they deserve.
How about the good news in Iraq? I take offense in the title of the thread Muslimah. "The truth" is that the vast majority of Americans in Iraq are doing their jobs...many don't even agree with it, but they do it. Bad things happen. It's horrible. Anybody who commits murder or rape deserves punishment...severe punishment. But don't apply those evil doers to the entire American military. I don't lump all Muslims into the beheader crowd. Just earlier today US forces turned over complete control of an entire Iraqi province to Iraq's new government and military.
