Well they are mercenaries though, I don't know why the guy would deny that...still, it speaks to the level of abuse at seemingly all the detention facilities the US operates...

You guys are getting annoying so I've decided to fight fire with fire.

Here are just a couple of sites for your viewing pleaure, including amognst other things, Saddam's mass graves,thousands of women being raped, countless numbers of innocent civilians being chewed up in industrial shredders, the murder of approximately 1.5 million Iraqi citizens by Gestapo-style death squads, and the massacre of 5,000 Kurds by use of nerve gas.

Koran/Quran flushed down the toilet...oh sob sob. WHere the heck are your priorities people?

my mistake -- ONLY 5,000 corpses were in the graves. I gues SH is OK after all...

Did you get the point or are we going to quibble about body counts?

Only if you concede that the US led invasion has caused the death of at least 20 times that amount of civilians...

My sources have it at about 25,000 on the high side. But I am sure you will run off to google and cut and paste somethin'.

Regardless there is a principle involved here, other than simply a reign of terror (saddam). Peopledo die in wars, you know.

So it is even more foolish to START them.---when one KNOWS that many will be killed. Pre-meditated war ( as this Iraq invasion was) is almost like pre-meditated murder (en masse)

and here we were led to believe that the US was better than the despots they despise.
