Crossing all limits of shamelessness, torture, sickness, and in-humanness, classified videos allegedly show that ?U.S. soldiers sexually assaulting boys in front of their mothers in Abu Ghraib, Iraq. This is something one cannot expect of animals.
According to journalist Seymour Hersh,
?Some of the worst things that happened you don’t know about, okay? Videos, um, there are women there. ?Some of you may have read that they were passing letters out, communications out to their men. This is at Abu Ghraib ? The women were passing messages out saying ?Please come and kill me, because of what’s happened? and basically what happened is that those women who were arrested with young boys, children in cases that have been recorded. The boys were sodomized with the cameras rolling. And the worst above all of that is the soundtrack of the boys shrieking that your government has. They are in total terror. It’s going to come out.
It’s impossible to say to yourself how did we get there? Who are we? Who are these people that sent us there? When I did My Lai I was very troubled like anybody in his right mind would be about what happened. I ended up in something I wrote saying in the end I said that the people who did the killing were as much victims as the people they killed because of the scars they had. I can tell you some of the personal stories by some of the people who were in these units witnessed this. I can also tell you written complaints were made to the highest officers and so we’re dealing with an enormous massive amount of criminal wrongdoing that was covered up at the highest command out there and higher, and we have to get to it and we will. We will. So, it’s going to be an interesting election year.?
The mothers of these Iraqi sodomized men kept saying ?please come and kill me? because of the trauma. This decade old incident under George Bush’s governance is a horror the world won’t forget for centuries to come.
A former detainee Kasim Hilas said:
?I saw [name blacked out] f*cking a kid, his age would be about 15-18 years. The kid was hurting very bad and they covered all the doors with sheets. Then when I heard the screaming I climbed the door because on top it wasn’t covered and I saw [blacked out], who was wearing the military uniform putting his d*ck in the little kid’s ass, I couldn’t see the face of the kid because his face wasn’t in front of the door. And, the soldier was taking pictures.?
I may not be so fond of Islam, but this incident is really disgusting. It’s against human rights.
