Disgusting
I missed the 60 Minutes II piece on prisoner mistreatment in Iraq, but the accompanying article is pretty disturbing.
One of the soldiers facing court martial, Army Reserve Staff Sgt. Chip Frederick, is a reservist who is a prison guard from Virginia. Frederick is pleading not guilty, despite photos like these (Warning: Possibly NSFW, and definitely disturbing) yet claims no personal responsiblity in these events due to a lack of "rules and regulations" on how exactly to run a prison from his commanding officers. WHA?!?!
"Well, they never said we couldn't make 'em strip and sit on top of 'em!"
America's finest...
land of the free... home of the mindless. who is that stupid bitch giving the thumbs up? It's bad enough when young guys are recreationally aggressive assholes but what is her story? the last 2 pics confirm america's complete lack of moral authority. This is the scum-pit future the Bush administration desires.
