Lambs to the Slaughter

US held youngsters at Abu Ghraib

Brig Gen Karpinski said US commanders were reluctant to release detainees... In her interview, she said Maj Gen Walter Wodjakowski, then the second most senior army general in Iraq, told her in the summer of 2003 not to release more prisoners, even if they were innocent. "I don't care if we're holding 15,000 innocent civilians," she said Maj Gen Wodjakowski told her. "We're winning the war."
Winning hearts and minds: rip out their hearts, and they'll change their minds.
