I didn't say rules. I said behavior. Of course there are rules against things like Abu Ghraib and Guantanimo and "disappearing" prisoners, but they also need to be followed. And even if every rule of engagement were followed to a tee, we invaded a country on false pretenses! Nothing could have assisted enemy propaganda more than that.
