MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History March 16, 1968: Up to 500 Vietnamese villagers were slaughtered by U.S. troops in the My Lai Massacre. The story was broken by investigative journalist Sy Hersch, who also covered Watergate, the secret US bombing of Cambodia, CIA domestic spying within the US, and the US torture and abuse of prisoners at Abu Ghraib. More recently, he has written articles showing that Syrian rebel forces, not the Assad regime, contrary to US propaganda, were responsible for the sarin gas attack in Ghouta. And that the US, with Norwegian collaboration, blew up the Nord Stream pipelines between Russia and Germany (also contrary to US propaganda).</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/mylai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mylai</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/massacre" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>massacre</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WarCrimes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WarCrimes</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/vietnam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vietnam</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/seymourhersch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>seymourhersch</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AbuGhraib" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AbuGhraib</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/torture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>torture</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nordstream" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nordstream</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sabotage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sabotage</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/russia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>russia</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/putin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>putin</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/watergate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>watergate</span></a></p>

Weltschmerz à Gogo<p>Great, that only took horrible acts of torture and 20+ years of the victims' lives. Still and all, big ups to the survivors and their supporters for sticking with this for so long. Abu Ghraib and the insane system of Bush-era "private contractors" (i.e., mercenaries) should never be forgotten or rehabilitated -- which includes, you know, not running for office on the support of the Cheney family.</p><p>====</p><p>Today, in a landmark verdict, a jury in a federal court found a Virginia-based government contractor liable for its role in the torture of Iraqi men at Abu Ghraib prison in 2003-2004 and ordered it to pay each of the three plaintiffs $3 million in compensatory damages and $11 million in punitive damages, for a total of $42 million. The ruling stems from a lawsuit filed in 2008 against CACI Premier Technology, Inc., on behalf of three men who endured the sorts of torture and abuse made infamous by leaked images that horrified the world twenty years ago. The jury in an earlier trial last April was unable to reach a unanimous decision; today’s verdict comes from a retrial with a new jury.</p><p>The jury found CACI liable for conspiring to torture and cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment of Suhail Al Shimari, a middle school principal, Asa’ad Zuba’e, a fruit vendor, and Salah Al-Ejaili, a journalist. The men were all held at the “hard site,” the part of the prison where the most severe abuses occurred. Along with hundreds of other Iraqis tortured at Abu Ghraib, they have suffered long-standing physical and emotional effects.</p><p><a href="https://ccrjustice.org/home/press-center/press-releases/abu-ghraib-verdict-iraqi-torture-survivors-win-landmark-case-jury" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">ccrjustice.org/home/press-cent</span><span class="invisible">er/press-releases/abu-ghraib-verdict-iraqi-torture-survivors-win-landmark-case-jury</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AbuGhraib" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AbuGhraib</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/torture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>torture</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WarCrimes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WarCrimes</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DickCheney" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DickCheney</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LizCheney" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LizCheney</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Iraq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Iraq</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BlackOps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlackOps</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Mercenaries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mercenaries</span></a></p>

AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>This article is another example of how sometimes the title of a piece alone communicates precisely everything you need to know about an issue, in this case the reality that Israel is running illegal torture camps for Palestinian prisoners right out in the open - even if the Pig Empire media is curiously disinterested in talking about it:</p><p><a href="https://www.commondreams.org/opinion/israel-prison-torture" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">commondreams.org/opinion/israe</span><span class="invisible">l-prison-torture</span></a></p><p>Where Is the Mass Outrage Over Israel’s Abu Ghraib?</p><p>"In recent days, it has become all too clear that something comparable to Abu Ghraib—and very possibly worse—has been taking place in Israeli prisons since October 7 when the war on Gaza broke out.</p><p>This week, appalling leaked video footage captured Israeli soldiers sexually assaulting a Palestinian detainee, just as a report from the Israeli human rights group B’Tselem highlighted the state’s policy of systematic prisoner abuse and torture since the start of the war.</p><p>The report, based on interviews with 55 Palestinians detained since the Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on October 7, is distressing to read. It provides evidence of degrading treatment, arbitrary beatings, and sleep deprivation, as well as the “repeated use of sexual violence, in varying degrees of severity.”</p><p>As I've mentioned before while pursuing my own writing and research, I personally find the lack of mainstream reporting on Israeli atrocities against Palestinian prisoners (particularly at the notorious Sde Teiman prison) absolutely dumbfounding unless one simply accepts that it's clear evidence of the Pig Empire establishment's *active* attempts to cover up the crimes involved here on behalf of a MENA region ally; something that objectively runs counter to everything journalism is supposed to be about. What I hadn't considered however, was how much clearer the picture of an intentional cover up becomes when you compare the media response to these stories, and their reaction to the exposure of Iraq War-era abuses by American military personnel at the equally notorious Abu Ghraib prison just over two decades ago. In that context, the author's use of the term "omerta" to describe the intentional blanket of silence being placed over this story (and numerous other stories of Israeli human rights abuses just like it) is more than apt, and taken together makes it clear that the entire Pig Empire establishment, at both the state level and in for-profit media organizations, is actively complicit in those crimes in a very real, legally-defined sense of the word. </p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Genocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Genocide</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Gaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gaza</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Colonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Colonialism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/SdeTeiman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SdeTeiman</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AbuGhraib" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AbuGhraib</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/WarCrimes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WarCrimes</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Israel</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Media" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Media</span></a></p>
