Hello? Amnesty International?
From an AP report on recent Iraqi operations:
On Saturday, troops searching the town found four Iraqi hostages beaten, handcuffed and chained to a wall in a torture center, the military said. Some of the men were believed to be Iraqi border guards who had been held for three weeks.
Troops searching the bunker found nooses, electrical wire and a bathtub filled with water for electric shocks and mock drownings.
In the basement, troops found automatic rifles, ammunition, terrorist training manuals and DVDs showing insurgents beheading captives, Pool said.
And where is Amnesty International's condemnation of this alleged torture? Will they be calling for a special investigation, an open and fair trial for the alleged torturers in, say, Sweden? NGOs like Amnesty International and the ICRC huff and puff about imaginary U.S. torture while the real crimes against humanity are occurring elsewhere.
