US soldiers would kill civilians, says Marine

A former US Marine has claimed that he saw American troops in Iraq routinely
kill unarmed civilians, including women and children. He said he had also
witnessed troops killing injured Iraqi insurgents.
Jimmy Massey, 33, a staff sergeant who served in Iraq before being
honourably discharged after 12 years' service, said he had seen troops
shooting civilians at road blocks and in the street. A code of silence,
similar to that found in organised crime gangs, prevented troops from
speaking about it.
"We were shooting up people as they got out of their cars trying to put
their hands up," said Mr Massey. "I don't know if the Iraqis thought we were
celebrating their new democracy. I do know that we killed innocent
civilians." Mr Massey said US troops in Iraq were trained to believe that
all Iraqis were potential terrorists. As a result, he had watched his
colleagues open fire indiscriminately. In one 48-hour period, he estimated
his unit killed more than 30 civilians in the Rashid district of southern
Baghdad.
"I was never clear on who the enemy was," he explained. "If you have no
enemy or you do not know who the enemy is, what are you doing there?" His
claims were made during an immigration hearing in Toronto, Canada, to assess
a claim for refugee status made by a former US soldier, Jeremy Hinzman. Mr
Hinzman, 26, fled to Canada after refusing to go to Iraq with his colleagues
in the 82nd Airborne Division based at Fort Bragg.
Mr Hinzman is seeking permission to remain in Canada with his wife and child
and believes he will face a court martial if he returns to the US. "We were
told that we would be going to Iraq to jack up some terrorists," he told the
hearing.
"We were told it was a new kind of war, that these were evil people and they
had to be dealt with." Mr Hinzman is among several American soldiers seeking
refugee status in Canada, hoping the country's opposition to the war will
help.
Some 30,000 to 50,000 Americans fled to Canada during the Vietnam War and
settled there.

scusa, ma dov'è la novità ?

 honourably discharged after 12 years' service,
Probabilmente si sta costruendo la pensione.
Comunque sia anzichè dire cazzate da dietro il confine avrebbe dovuto
testimoniare in un processo o fare qualche foto.
Mi sembra incredibile questa cosa, ma in effetti mi parevano incredibili
anche le torture ad abu grahib.
Ma se è vero che qualcuno l'ha fatto dovrebbe essere subito processato.

processato da chi ? Sono tutti collusi, partendo dal vaccaro di bush...
dovrebbero processarli all'aja, ma figurati.....


Quelli di abu grahib sono stati processati, almeno gli esecutori.
Quanto ai "mandanti" ... mah.

Certo.
GLi è andata appena meno bene che a quelli dello strike del Cermis,
addirittura promossi.
Ma va la va......

Quelli del cermis li ha barattati l'amico d'alema per salvare l'amica
terrorista baraldini che è stata accolta con tutti gli onori.

Boh.
Resta che la legge americana non li ha condannati.
Se baratto c'è stato è stato immorale da entrambe le parti.
Comunque chiamare la baraldini "terrorista" è folle.
Poi arrampicati quanto ti pare.
