So they said "He's in the army so suitable to guard POWs" and now they throw their hands up in shock when he abused prisoners.

It seems to me you present all the evidence of who he was and then forgive the superiors for not making some basic checks.

but then you thought the invasion of Iraq was a good thing. Go find you 10 or was it 20 reasons why the US inveded Iraq, it's about time I had a good laugh.

You have to remember I said Iraq was going to tunr into a shit sandwich for the US, you said it was going to be a good move. Who is right with hind sight?
