War is a mixture of very evil people and very cowardly people.

You can't have a war without both.
 
the Japanese were allowed to erase Unit 731 from the archives by the American government, which wanted Ishii's biological warfare findings for itself...In the autumn of 1945, General MacArthur granted immunity to members of the Unit in exchange for research data on biological warfare...Unit 731 was not part of the Tokyo War Crimes Tribunal...Lawyers for the International Prosecution Section gathered evidence which was sent directly to President Truman. No more was heard of it. The Americans took the view that all this valuable research data could end up in the hands of the Soviets if they did not act fast.

It's easy to justify evil as, your rival is doing it or might do it. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were both justified that way. The US is a big opponent of treaties to stop torture, and a big advocate of reinterpreting the Geneva accords.
