Good on 'em! Maybe they'll be more successful than U.S, citizens trying to dislodge this current cancerous and corrupt regime from power!

These men suffered terribly! There should be criminal charges against
all who participated in their torture and detainment in addition to the lawsuits for financial compensation!!!

(That should include everyone in the current administration that did not vote against this war!)

Thank you Eduardo. We need to hear these stories and we need to pass
them along to everyone we know. I'm forwarding this one to all my family and friends.

This is only the peak of an iceberg when the illegal war has destroyed the homes and claimed the lives of over a million civilians in Iraq. I agree with Marian that those who tortured the innocent and those did not vote against the war should be responsible for the compensations.
