Imagine if somebody else did this... From CBS, on 60 Minutes II last night. We'd scream bloody murder and condemn the whole society, we'd even use it to justify our invading the nation both before and after the fact. Is there further context? Undoubtedly...but no matter the context it is hard to imagine there is any justification for this. While the offenders are facing discipline and possibly imprisonment, the effect in the rest of the world is going to be terrible. Last month, the U.S. Army announced 17 soldiers in Iraq, including a brigadier general, had been removed from duty after charges of mistreating Iraqi prisoners. But the details of what happened have been kept secret, until now. It turns out photographs surfaced showing American soldiers abusing and humiliating Iraqis being held at a prison near Baghdad. The Army investigated, and issued a scathing report. Now, an Army general and her command staff may face the end of long military careers. And six soldiers are facing court martial in Iraq -- and possible prison time The actions of these soldiers is shocking, but don't think for a minute many on the Right would be condemning an entire society for such actions...well, the same is going to happen in the Arab world. How much are we going to here about this in the coming days? For those of you who did not see the report here are stills from the report. They are very, very disturbing.
