A Tale of Two Lives Destroyed by Abu Ghraib

Marian Blasberg and Anita Blasberg (ICH):
"With Lynndie England's conviction earlier this week, nine US soldiers have now been sentenced for their role in the Abu Ghraib torture scandal. But is it enough? DER SPIEGEL looks at two lives destroyed by Abu Ghraib. One, an Iraqi community leader -- the other, his American guard."
After reading A Tale of Two Lives Destroyed by Abu Ghraib , ask yourself, who is responsible for allowing these policies to exist? Who promoted these policies? Just where does the buck stop?
"Davis says that his country punished him for crimes over which he had no control. Instead, he says, the people who were responsible for creating the system of torture and abuse at Abu Ghraib should be brought to justice. Davis wants to talk and wants to set things right...."
