The difference is the U.S. owns up to the rare case, puts the fucks on trial, and boots them out of service.

Mmm... no, the US did not "own up" to anything until it was thrust up Bush's ass. He was aware of this for some time.
I'm also sure he is also currently aware of many other issues, including murder, that are being handled by "third parties" who have, correctly, been "conservative" with public statements.
Wait till the allegations of war crimes really start and all the "self declared" evidence by US forces is presented to the press. It is "possible" Bush may "own up" to that when it happens.
There will always be war crimes, but it will be interesting to see how these are "actually" handled. If the volume is "usual", it does not say much for US forces.
