More terror coming
Once we bail from Iraq, incidents like this will ensure a civil war erupts:
Iraqi authorities have been torturing and abusing prisoners in jails across the country.
Torture and extrajudicial killings are rampant.
Sunni men are beaten, tortured and killed, then thrown on the side of the road or into rivers or left at morgues under fake names.
Shiites are behind the death squads and secret torture centers. "People are doing the same as Saddam's time and worse."
"Raids, arrests and torture are always there, and the government can't do anything to secure the country....Iraq used to have a dictator of mass graves, now we have the democracy of mass graves."
Many of the men in prison were taken without warrants.
Gen. William G. Webster, said that while militias were rumored to be involved in kidnappings and extrajudicial killings of Sunni men, weeding out militias that are among or pose as Iraqi forces was nearly impossible. It's difficult to know if a security officer's allegiance lies with his tribe or religious sect, he said.
Why did American blood get spilled if this country is no better than when Saddam was in power? Some democracy we gave them.
