Treatment of POWs (1 Viewer)

[astro]

Did anybody see the pictures on channel 7 news showing the treatment of prisoners by the troops from USA?
Well i saw them and i can say that they were not only humiliating and degrading they were also a violation of human right...something that American apparently strive to enforce....
They had photos of the prisoners with electrical cables that were draped across their body...and prob one slight movement would cause eletrocution....

I know that American soldiers have also suffered, maybe even to a greater extent... but are they going to stoop to such lows?
What do you think?

I saw it on ABC.
Humanity is fucked, what more can you say.
P.S. I don't think that the American soldiers have suffered to a greater extent

AMERICAN TROOPS HAVE NO FOLLOWING THROUGH

EVEN TOMAS EDISON COULD ELECTROCUTE AN ELEPHANT AND THATS MUCH BIGGER THAN AN IRAQUI

I was actually talking to astro, but I was stealing your style.

Yeah, we'll the US has the superiority mentality that they are untouchable. They suppsoe they can do what they want without repercussions and then point the finger at the enemy and say they did it first.
Besides, the yanks won't ratify any UN treaties stopping the whole situation

If you read enough then your find out that Americans do that all the time, they laugh at human rights and would exploit anyone infavor of profits!! They think they are above everyone else with their big guns and their wealth Any they are!! Cause the rest of the world are too weak to do anything about it!!

Hahaha, If you actually travel around the world , your really see how much Anti- American sentiments there really is !!

Australia is a ally of America and theres already anti - American sentiment here so one could only imagein whats its like around the rest of the world!!

But dont you worry to much!! Every great power would one day fall on their own sword and for the US its their greed!!

Look what they did to the Us soldiers a while back, how they burned them and hanged them, well something along those lines..
It's time for the USA to get back at the enemy..

 

[astro]

even though it would be good at time...today's society is not supposed to be based around an eye for an eye....
Not only that....its mostly the winners who write and report the history and news.....so that means the world does not see the horror Americans inflict upon the Iraqi people - civilians included.....I'm not saying that American troops haven't been brutalised.....Iraqi prob see it as getting rid of the invaders that have killed thier families.....

errr are u being sarcastic?

Many of the pictures show American troops looking on in apparent approval.

From Article
The Army announced last month that 17 soldiers had been suspended over the allegations of abuse of prisoners.

The group includes a brigadier general.

CBS says the pictures it obtained show a wide range of abuses, including:

Prisoners with wires attached to their genitals


A dog attacking a prisoner

Prisoners being forced to simulate having sex with each other

A detainee with an abusive word written on his body.
From Article

come on.. a freakin general!!!! , what the fuck , its bloody outrageous , if anything teh soldiers should show that they are better than those people that burned the American Soldiers

Man, the prisoners probably have vital intel that will might save the lives of countless civilians and Coaltion troops, because they're Taliban scum. Preventing terrorist acts is more than worth treating prisoners like shit.

i cant even begin to point out the stupidity of what you just said
