And Don't Do It Again! posted by Richard Seymour
The BBC reports :The US military has filed criminal charges against six of its soldiers who are accused of abusing Iraqi prisoners ... Six senior US officers were also reprimanded, the army said earlier.
The spokesman, Brigadier General Mark Kimmitt, said they had not taken part in the criminal actions, but had been responsible for supervising the others.
Those wouldn't be the same officers who turned a blind eye to some of these atrocities and told their underlings to cover up evidence of wrong-doing, would they?
A stern "reprimand" will certainly put a stop to that malarky, won't it?
