http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/world/iraq/20060212-0744-iraq-britain-abuse.html

This is a shameless example of the terrorism being carried out by british and americans in Iraq

 

Too right.
God I wish we could go back to the good old days with Saddam, where noone was tortured or killed, and there was no corruption.

 

Try bringing a bible to Iraq. :/

 

so should be praise this brave act by the british soliders?

and if saddam was corrupt than and does it make it right for the british to abuse innocent youth ??

 

I think they should all be court marshaled for not killing them. Tomorrow they will be back throwing bombs.

 

Wow, the saying that "ignorance is bliss" is really true isn't it?

So now I guess you guys are saying its okay to torture Iraqi children because they "may" be throwing bombs tomorrow?

What happen to being innocent until being proven guilty? The US/Britain are sure helping Iraq get democracy. Torturing children is a great way to get that done.

 

Go on any street corner in the USA and stone a cop. See what happens. I bet you get shot if you have the balls and arrogance to duplicate the actions of these so called "children".

These children are in a war zone and agressive. They should be dealt with with deadly force.

Last time I checked, hitting you with a bolder is deadly force. Soldiers should get less value on their lives then you?

Talk about ignorant! People like you are why civilizations fail!

 

OMG. Here in the US you don't get tortured if you throw a rock at a police officer. You may be shot or thrown in jail, but not tortured.

Torturing children is sadistic. It is evil and just shows the nature of the people behind this. They are just as bad as the insurgents who chop off peoples heads.

You support torturing children? Do you support a child molester to? Because in my book, it is just as bad.

What in the hell is a kid with a rock going to do with a soldier with armor and an automatic weapon anyway?

 

Firstly get your words straight. They weren't tortured, they were beaten. They weren't children, the article clearly states 'youths', which is more commonly teenagers.

Secondly, they weren't innocent, they were throwing rocks at the soldiers. The soldiers did overreact.

Lastly, this happened 2 years ago, which doesn't make it any less of a crime, but people are ranting as if it happened yesterday.

 

So now you're saying beating someone is not a form of torture?

So now you're saying its okay to torture teenagers because they throw rocks at you?

To sum up what you're saying, under some circumstances, it is okay to torture someone when they do something wrong. I wonder what stops that from eventually happening in the US?

If the British or US government will torture Iraqis, what makes you so sure they won't do it to their own citizens?

 

Typical rhetoric. Repeat imflamatory key buzz words and ignore the facts.

You think being assigned to Iraq is not torture? When do you leave?

 

haha they already have a retarded book called the quoran, it has more shit than the stupid crappy bible.

 

here is the video

ok, they were tortured, get that in your f*** head you fu** heads!!!

im not saying they were pretty cool boys but why treat them like that?
you are an american-conservative-bush-supportter-christian-asshole is heartless and cold.
why not arrest them? just like that... they didnt DESERVE THAT...

 

They were beat into submission. That's all. Shit, I've been beat worse in the street.

I bet the other "children" they told about it don't throw stones at soldiers anymore.

 

It was wrong but I don't think it's that big of a deal. Although kicking kids in the balls is pretty damn low.

 

Ok, after watching the video.

No way are they children, they're teenagers, and tesla, there is a difference in beating a child, and beating a teenager.

I still wouldn't use the word 'torture' as it's too emotive. When I think of torture, I think of bamboo shoots in fingernails, and electricity. I don't think a bunch of soldiers hitting 3 teenagers with sticks is torture.

I'm not saying it's right, I'm just saying put relatively, with US bombing hospitals and schools, killing children (by accident though, this wasn't an accident, but still) and the terrorists slowly cutting off innocent peoples heads off with blunt instruments, this isn't half as bad. It is a war zone, these things are bound to happen in any war (Jesus, look at Vietnam).

 

Only because you are too young or too sheltered to remember these tactics as the norn for many american police forces in the good old USA in very very recent history.

Now the cops here can't kick your ass and they really have to justify shooting you. But all they have to do is classify you as uncooperative today to electrocute you.

Before you go worring about some third world trerrorists countries youths being beaten after throwing stones at soilders, you should look at what's happeing outside your own window to your neighbors right now.

Because YOU are next!

 

Huh? I said I don't think it's that big of a deal. I just said that it's not nice to kick kids in the balls.

I hate US COPS...most are pieces of garbage!

 

Guess I read it wrong. But a kick in the balls by a cop, I saw it happen to too many american teens. I could not have an sympathy for these terrorists in training.

As for the kick in the balls. It was better then jail and a criminal record, regardless of how cruel it seemed. There is no doubt in my mind it worked beter then jail.

 

Who really gives a shit? Today its rocks, tomorrow its bombs.
They should have shot the little motherfuckers.
Just a bunch of teen punk terrorists.
Clearly they have the mentality of suicide bombers already, who in their right mind throws rocks at men with automatic guns???? exactly.

God damn I'm sick of this shit, whos side are you people on?
Is this forum a majority of muslims and hippies or what?

I consider myself democrat because thats who I usually agree with, but you people are so far left it's scary.
BLAH
