A painting of me

"A second US soldier's plea of guilty to the gang rape of a 14-year-old Iraqi girl and the killing of her and her family has been accepted by a judge." ⇒

Yeah, this is still fucked up. "The entire crime took about five minutes and the girl knew her parents and sister had been shot while she was being raped, the hearing heard." Also, "The case is one of several in which US troops are accused of killing Iraqis."

  2. “Killer” doesn’t quite capture what he is. That crime is beyond fucked up.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
