US Army Style
The Guardian Weekend features a depiction of US Army style brutal treatment and torture after a random Iraq arrest. It consists of 73 well done drawings and first hand comments by graphic artist Joe Sacco. The presentation is in a 3.2 Meg pdf format file which may be downloaded at this link.
Want to know what truly makes me sad in every army has the crule and unjust and the fair and digusted.Why do people and countrys want to forse there anger and ways on people i can understand why people want to protect a home but why do so many want to own the world????
This is the military MO since Viet-nam. Maybe since Korea, too. I'm not aware of this type of thing in WWII, although it seems to me that some of the POW camps for Germans in the Dakotas were cruel.
This is from yesterday's news:
03:53 New York. US officer to be court-martialed.
Lewis Welshofer Jr. may have violated the Geneva Convenion by causing the death of an Iraqi general during interrogation. Welshofer forced and Iraqi general to crawl into a sleeping bag head first and attached electrodes to his feet. He then sat on the general's chest, suffocating him.
Yeah, right, "may". Thanks for the Sacco link, Pocho!
Read this pearl yesterday. As to the "cardiology" part of the article: people are a bit scared and tend to die when an executioner happens to sit on their chest and the head is neatly wrapped in a plastic bag.
I have only four (4) problems with the army. 1. It exists. 2. It existed. 3. It will exist. 4. It exists the way it does.
Such an interesting thing to watch. The fall of America and the changing of their image. Thru so many deceptions they were still able to disguise themselves as on the side of good. But finaly, the illusion lets loose and what is revealed is rapidly becoming what is accepted as how it is. Evil and up to no good.
