 righthand says: Mazin Younis, of the Iraqi League, who has travelled in Basra collecting witness statements of allegations of abuse, says he now has "more than 80" cases involving allegations against British troops. "Every single time I uncover a personal story of torture and humiliation in Iraq, I think to myself that I have seen the worst there is," Mr Younis added. "Then I hear the next story. "Hassan shook with emotion and humiliation as he described to me the treatment he suffered at the hands of British soldiers five years ago. It had taken constant prompting and repeated reminders about the importance of detail before Hassan felt brave enough to describe how he was forced to engage in oral sex with his friend Tariq while their British captors laughed raucously and took photographs." that is disgusting! Speaking as a former officer and veteran, it would appear that the armed forces have increasingly become thoroughly rotten from the officer corps all the way down through the ranks. what the hell ideals and principles are we in the so-called "west" fighting for? As I have repeated many times before: The ends never justify the means, but rather the means become the ends" Of course the sociopaths among the readers here will become thoroughly confused by the statement above. If true then this story gets worse than the act detailed above. quote Such is the culture in Iraq that Hassan fears for his life if identified. It has taken him four years to find the courage to talk about the incident, Mr Younis said. He fled Basra after the incident, giving up his education and staying indoors for fear that someone may recognise him. Mr Younis added: [i]"There is, of course, no case as bad as a killing or murder. But the fact that this is sexual ... It can lead to suicide because it is so humiliating. Hassan fled Basra because he couldn't face his friends, the people who had seen this. "He left education and is now unemployed. He has been very, very traumatised.... Dude WTF what ever happened to respect and as we all know these soldiers won't get charged and the victim will be made into an enemy! how is it that these crimes go untouched by the military tribunal??? why is it in war sexual trauma is just excepted and no one cares to end this act of violence? The U.N. would call this a war crime but the U.K. don't give a flying f! what bugs me is that no one cares ...... what does it say about us??? okay i dont know much about he war and un and blah but WTF!! this kinda crap is uncalled for and then ppl wonder y there gettin bombed!! adn screw this action as a war crime this WHOLE FREKIN thing isa war crime!!! no one has any buisnies in dealing wit the iraq war any way....at lease to my knowledge!!! and this is just sick, all the dued wanted was a extra carton of milk i mean, is that worth SUCH punishment!? damn that dude needs to be slaped with a pip D< |
