Damn, this is getting uglier by the minute.

Some of them are. There are criminals in every profession that exists.

US army - bdsm fetishists???:ak47:

then move you dirty ass hippy

This is getting uglier by the minute!

War anit suppost to be pretty :2 cents:

now why doesnt that surprise me

hmmm.. they gotta learn it somewhere
your tax dollars at work

this is getting ridiculous it may be wrong to do it iraqis but then going and doing it to your own soldiers that horrible..

"... stopping when they saw he was wearing parts of an Army uniform."

He considers himself lucky bec of this but just think of the damage done!

Yeah war anit suppost to be pretty but they were not at war.

" beaten while posing as a detainee "

They gotta learn what? How to beat each other to near death when they are on the same side?

Who are you and where you're from doesn't matter to them at all.

Why hold the US to a higher standard? I'm sure he would have been forced to chew his own freshly severed testicles if he was a Chechen held by Russian troops.

It's all relative.

The US isn't being held to any form of higher standard, It just has very heavy press attention due to it's current actions.

No it's not all relative, as he was not in Russia with Russian troops, he was on a US base with fellow US troops.

Sounds more like you are trying to justify the fact that he was beaten to near death.

hmm

Maybe he desreved it?

tard - did you read more than the title and even then.. wtf? :321GFY

read the fucking thread! :glugglug

??? you're serious?

LOL yeah ... just saying we only know what we are told ... we don't know whats going on behind the scenes at all ... easy now guys ... just thought I'd throw up another way to look at it:winkwink:

Violence creates violence. I am so desensitised to all the media coverage of the "war" in Iraq.

I am yet to hear anything about a "successful outcome" that hasn't involved innocent people being killed in the name of greed.

MAKE LOVE NOT WAR

Yep

some GI's being pissed off at another GI and kicking his ass is far from being tortured

Fuck when I was in the Army we kicked a guys ass and scrubbed him with stiff bruses..

He started taking showers after that.

could be any number of reason's why they kicked his ass

Leave then asswipe. get the fuck out

sorry mate but that wasn't the reason... sure some trouble is ok...

BUT they thought he's a prisoner... and the first thing they did was beating him ... he could be dead now..

"Baker, of Georgetown, said the soldiers only stopped beating him when they realized he might be American."

that man was not a prisoner of war

so the Geneva does not apply

torture & beating are very simliar.. but thats not the point...

we need to get this bush regime out of the white house asap

Some people are really fucked up.

wow, these guys are from right here in my hometown....... funny we never heard a word about this til just now. That's how they play here where I live. My brother once got into it with ONE guy and when he got to where he was going, SEVEN of them were waiting to whip his ass......... THAT'S how they play where I live. You fuck with one, or piss one off, you deal with the whole lot of them. THIS is how they do it.......... torture? Nahh!!

Where I come from, this is NOT torture, it is one hell of an ass beating, but not torture. What comes to my head when someone says torture is prolonged beating and so on....... for long hours on end......... THIS was just a beating, allbeit, a nasty one, but a beating just the same.

Shows you how WE do things though huh? Here we are supposed to be setting examples for others when it comes to how to treat prisoners and shit, and then you see shit like this. Says a lot for US now doesn't it?

I say it again, the whole fucking world has gone completely MAD!!! :(

:helpme

:rasta

that is horrible :(

That's not the point.

This wasn't two soldiers fighting. This was 4 soldiers attacking who they thought was a prisoner of war. It could have been an innocent guy like that Lawyer they just let out. Rumsfeld is making your military look terrible, I don't understand how anyone can still support him. Maybe they should put someone in charge who has actually, I don't know, been in combat.

they probably thought a detainee had escaped, and just had to put him in his place.. sucks to be him.

thats it

They'll never understand. They're e-warriors and don't know how it is to be a professional killer who coincidentally protects their fat-asses from other killers.

please go back to post 1, read it... check the news.. read them.. edit your post...

its a wonder that they haven't killed the own soldier

:1orglaugh

just checked the news...

he's "brain damaged" now :(

I think not. It is a pic of John Walker Lynde and if I recall correctly he was not at Gitmo.
