US Army Doctors Had Role in Abu Ghraib Abuse
LONDON (Reuters) - U.S. military doctors working in Iraq collaborated with interrogators in the abuse of prisoners at Abu Ghraib prison outside Baghdad, an article in the British medical journal The Lancet said on Friday.

U.S. Command Faulted in Abu Ghraib Probe
Reuters - Fri Aug 20, 2004
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A U.S. Army investigation into abuse at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq finds they resulted from failures of leadership at the highest levels of command, the Washington Post reported on Friday.

So, how many barrels were these bad apples in?
It seems medical ethics were also not immune
And how BIG a barrel are we talking of here?
The real answer may not be emerging anytime soon
Soon we will see the official whitewash
It’s quite clear this goes right to the top
They’ll tell us it’s only a few bad apples
But just where does the LYING stop?

It stops with bush being kicked out of office - maybe.
On a side note - those Abu Ghraib prisoners who were shot dead by US Soldiers for rioting . . . how is this justified? Didn't they have enough rubber bullets, so resorted to live-fire?
That prison makes me wonder . . . what a nightmare.
Nice work, by the way. Keep it up. |
