Winning Iraqis’ Hearts and Minds
(Last Updated on )
The American military is seen here winning hearts and minds by sexually humiliating Iraqi prisoners and torturing one by telling him he’ll be electrocuted if he falls of a rations box. Canadian TV showed a programme alleging a pre-mediated massacre of Taliban prisoners in Afghanistan (55MB QuickTime video here).Can I hear you saying "My Lai", good people? What splendid tactics to show the middle East that we respect human rights while we "liberate" Iraq. "Dad … What’s A Terrorist?"
