A news story describes the kill team in Afganistan. Fueled by their haytred of Afgan civilians, five US soldiers decide to kill a civilian. It didn't matter who but just in a situation that won't raise suspicion nor have any witnesses. They failed in both endeavors but were not investigated or charged in that incident, at least at that moment. This group of five soldiers isnow accused of four murders and probably is not an isolated rogue group, or so investigators believe.
Some how we Americans believe we are above such behaviour but it is much more common and accepted that we would even like to think. We are no more moral than people of any other country and less so than many others.
