//Prisoners of War//
The stand I'm planning to take is one on POW's or prisoners of war. This topic has been debated every since WW1 and cruelty and torture ran rampant throw POW camps. This continued the trend, in WW2 as nazi germany created death camps for POW's and innocent jews, gypsies, and those that tried to protect them. This trend of sever cruelty only continued into Vietnam war, then to Afghanistan, then to Iraq, until present day.

Cruelty to prisoners of war has been common throughout the ages, the USA even with is past of horrible doings to prisoners and innocent civilians. These horrific events and stories of war are what makes people retaliate at the government and declare that war is terrible. Its a stand I want to take, and a stand I'll make to expose the brutality of USA soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq, as well as the murderous actions al-Qaida televised of US prisoners being tortured and killed. This assignment will be very graphic for me, and my idea of who I'm going to interview will explain itself soon enough. I know a couple of Veterans from Iraq and I can ask them their experiences. This could help the project, and open my own eyes at the very same time. This brutality needs to stop, its not needed and making a person suffer, and die painfully is inhuman and just sickening. This is why I can strongly take a stand on this topic.
