Iraqi abuse pix put Brit Army on defensive

[DesertFox]

The British army was on Tuesday forced to defend the conduct of British forces in Iraq as 22 photographs of alleged abuse at a Basra aid camp were presented at the court martial of three soldiers charged with harming Iraqis. General Sir Mike Jackson, head of the army, stressed that Britain “condemned utterly” all abuse and said only a “very small” number of the 65,000 troops who had served in Iraq faced abuse allegations. He did not comment directly on the court martial, in the German city of Osnabrück.

We dont get to do it, those soldiers will be punished.

Any other country in the world tortures people, little is said. We do it and God forbid! The Geneva Convention isn't worth the paper it's written on.
