Reported atrocities by Iraqi forces could risk aid under US law
[Ynet] Reported atrocities by Iraqi soldiers could risk some US aid under a law forbidding assistance to those responsible for human rights...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless... abuses if they are confirmed, a key senator cautioned on Wednesday. ABC News reported that some US-trained units are under investigation for committing some of the same atrocities as the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... , citing an unnamed Pentagon official. ABC said the investigation, conducted by the Iraqi government, was launched after officials were confronted with allegations of war crimes based partly on videos and photos that appear to show uniformed soldiers massacring civilians, torturing and executing prisoners and displaying severed heads.
