the man under the black hood at Abu Ghraib -his story






http://www.pbs.org/now/politics/hajali.html


On Friday, April 29, 2005 at 9 p.m. on PBS (check local listings), in " Few Bad Men?" NOW broadcasts the first in-depth American television interview with Haj Ali, a former prisoner who says he was the man under the black hood in the infamous photo from Abu Ghraib. "Abu Ghraib is a breeding ground for insurgents," says Ali, who describes his experience in detail. "99% of the people brought in are innocent, but with all the insults and torture, it makes them ready to do just about anything." Read more about Ali and his experiences below.

1. most telling quote from the article
...is that the people who appeared in the photo and the process of their punishment occurred in such a jeering way. This meant the method insulted all of humanity.

2. And the next line too-
about the fact that they should be
prosecuted by the Geneva convention standard
or American Law.
Fat chance.
WHAT is it going to take for the idiots in this
country to feel ASHAMED of what is being
done in their names to innocent civilians the world over?
