The complex will bring clean drinking water to nearly 3,000 Iraqis from Al Kabani and another nearby community.

I think you muddled up the pictures, the 'be nice to the kids as you are on camera', with the actual torture pictures...such as these -

http://www.antiwar.com/news/?articleid=2444

So yes, you do have proof of Americian Soldiers Torturing Iraqis.....

I....have nothing to say...the pictures say it all, and it disgusts me....

An eye for an eye....and the whole world would be blind...

Hi Angry Person!

So you think that American soldiers are abusive to kids when their not on camera? That seems to be your implication - 'be nice to the kids as you are on camera'.

*Yawn*. Abu Ghraib. This is such a boring, played out story... But here goes...

1) The soldiers involved there have been tried and convicted.

2) Running around naked is not torture. Really, if you want good torture devices, google `medieval torture devices'. Or go here - http://www.torture-museum.com/medieval.htm

(Actually, pantying someone sounds more like a frat party then a torture room...)

3) Yeah, we could swap bad pictures all day long I suppose. The difference is, your `bad' pictures all come from Abu Ghraib. I can fish good pictures from all over Iraq.

The pictures disgust me also. Not so much the treatment of the prisoners, as the break down of command and discipline.

As far as `An eye for an eye' goes, we've had one eye gouged out already. We lose the other one and we are completely blind.

Yours,
Happy Programmer

Do you mean 'we' as America, or 'we' as humans?

And yes, those medieval devices were pretty cool, (I'm sure I could think of more painful ones, if the need ever arised), but I'm glad we are alive now, and not then, none the less

One of my Japanese classmates was telling me of the Samurai, and how, if they needed to, could inflict a myriad amount of deep, painful cuts on a victim, all the while keeping the bleeding to a minimal, and keeping them alive for days....now that is skill :P

Haha, torture sucks, none the less, and no one should ever have to go through it
There, I said it....am I wrong?

I mean, 'we as in Americans.' The first poke in the eye was 9/11, which was the catalyst for the war on terror.

I'm certainly glad that we are alive now instead of then. Things like feudalism suck, unless you're a "Noble." Being a vassel would suck too.

Do some people deserve torture? I can think of people I would torture. Allow me to enumerate.

o Child molesters
o Terrorists
o Rapists
o Murderers

Ammendment VIII of the constitution protects those people from nuts like me... We had an incident here recently about 4 guys who beat a man to death in their church parking lot. Oddly enough, I can feel some sympathy for them. I may blog about that.

Amendment VIII - Cruel and Unusual punishment. Ratified 12/15/1791.

Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.

They beat some guy to eath, for doing nothing?

We had this woman in NZ, who killed her husband (spiked his food, then cemented him, still alive, under their varanda), 17 years ago, and you will never guess how long she got for it.....please, take a stab (and no google ;) )

If you want to kill someone, come here....you can do a double murder, and be out within 10 yrs...,a single murder, and be out in 5yrs, or, you could steal 250k from a charity, get your stomach stapled, put your kids through private schools and pay off your credit cards, and because you were an MP, get 3yrs, with parole after 9 mths.....sounds fun :|

As to the woman mentioned above...lets just say, a guy who burnt down a clubroom got more then her.....

NZ is a joke, punishment wise....

(so, you want to kill me, as, if I remember correctly, in another blog, did you not call me a terroist for not supporting the war.....and you want to kill all terroists.....maybe I should sleep with one eye open....)

lol

No, they caught a guy stealing from their church. I need to dig that story up...

I'm accustomed to soft sentences. What did the murdering wife get, 10 years?

It sounds like NZ has the same problem that America has: different rules for different classes.

As it turns out in America, typically the `darling' lawyers go after the money - Johnny Cochran, Lee Shapiro (sorry, I only know lawyers from the OJ case).

While the prosecutors we get don't necessarily seem to be high end lawyers. So, we end up with savvy lawyers `out-lawing' our not so savvy prosecutors. Granted this is all speculation, I haven't performed any hard research on this.

Because the high end lawyers are after the money. Guess who gets them, the rich. So, while it is *fair* .. anyone can hire these lawyers .. it turns out that the rich get the best defense. Good for them, I suppose -- they did make it in America.

Nice try with the war dig. I ain't taking your bait! WTH have you been anyway? I never see you on GW anymore.

The damn wife got 4 years!!!!!!!!!!!
That is somewhat crap!
he judge 'took into account' all that she had been through; living with a dead husband under to floor, lying to friends and neighbours about him, and the fact he used to beat her when he was drunk, which was like 5 times, and decided the fairest sentence would be 4yrs....and with our awesome parole system, she will be out in 2 years....fair? I think not....

And stealing = death in America?.....hmm....

Sorry, I work from 7.30 - 4, and get home at like 4.30, and by the time i shower, change and do other things it is like 5....and then I'm too tired to do much....and GW has become boring now....just doing the same things I've already done, over and over....
One day I will play again...but who knows :|

Good luck with ye GvG :)

You're just as difficult outside guild wars as you are in the game!

Anyway, if you're on, I may bug you to fill in. Only if you're willing to use teamspeak, it is essential.
