Danish Torture of Iraqi Prisoners |
I WENT DOWN TO THE DANISH MISSION HERE IN NEW YORK, BUT COULD NOT
LOCATE ANY ANTI-WAR DEMONSTRATORS FOR DAYS. WHERE ARE THEY, NOW THAT
ANOTHER COUNTRY HAS BEEN FOUND TO BE TORTURING IRAQI PRISONERS?
Danish agent faces torture claim
BBC
Military authorities in Denmark have launched an investigation into
claims that an army intelligence officer working in Iraq mistreated
prisoners.
A statement by the military command said the officer, who has not been
named, could face charges of torture.
Reports say she is accused of refusing to let prisoners have water and
forcing them to stay in stressful positions.
Denmark supported the US-led invasion of Iraq and has about 500 troops
in the country.
The Danish military's statement followed newspaper claims that Danish
soldiers had reported their colleague after they disagreed with her
interrogation methods.
The Ekstra Bladet newspaper said the woman officer had forced
prisoners to sit in "a stressful position for long periods of time".
The officer was ordered to return to Denmark two weeks before her tour
of duty was due to end.
The case is the second investigation of alleged prisoner abuse by
Danish soldiers in Iraq.
In May a Danish soldier was reprimanded for using his rifle to push a
prisoner who had made an obscene gesture.
Incidents of abuse of prisoners by US and UK troops in Iraq were
widely reported earlier this year.

It could have been worse. She could have followed Arab traditions and
cut his throat on video and then broadcast it on satellite TV.

Or even worse than that would be the horrible torture of
placing her underwear on their heads.

UN, but............Oops! Sorry!

Well, when Mr. Kerry, who has admited to firing on Vietmamese
civilians and killing them, repeats threats against the president, you
tend to take it seriously. I bet that that puts him in solid with his
friend Saddam Hussein who attempted to assasinate another president
Bush.
Good day. Or as John Kerry would say, bonjour.
