buses by US soldiers


Abuses by US soldiers at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq and at Gauntanamo Bay prison in Cuba shocked the world. The first one was extremely cruel. There were lots of proof and Lindi England who was one of the main abusers confessed to committing the crimes. But Col James who was appointed judge declared Lindi innocent.

The second one was the desecration of the Holy Koran. Investigators probing abuses have confirmed the alleged misdeeds. It was revealed by a secret report of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The soldiers did it as abusive treatment and there were a number of witnesses. But there was no judgement. What can we expect from the so called protectors of democracy and human rights?
