A military jury recommended a simple reprimand Monday for an Army officer who killed an Iraqi general by stuffing him headfirst into a sleeping bag and sitting on his chest during an interrogation.
He got a reprimand for negligent homicide… No prison.
Lynddie England got several years in prison, and she didn’t kill anyone. With this ‘sentence’, the Army has greenlighted more torture. Sickening.
And 1,000 more former moderates in the Middle East read about this and decide to join al Qaida.
Just remember, the state needs people like him, so they won’t come down too hard in case it puts others off.
Well put.
