It's the result of the process of dehumanisation.
When you are used to seeing dead and burnt bodies of friends and loved ones; when your cities have crumbled under the weight of bombs, when there is no work and no food on the table, when bandits rule the night and foreign troops are controlling the little that's left of your lives during the day, it's not inconceivable that the part of humanity that should be appalled by such acts has also been burnt out.
This is a classic example of what temporary insanity looks like - and its our frankenstein.
