From ShortNews, July 4:
Iraq’s Justice Minister wants the UN to ensure the US troops who allegedly committed 4 counts of murder and 1 of rape to be punished for their “monstrous and inhuman” attack.
Steven D. Green an ex-member of the 101st Airborne Division, who was discharged from the army because he had a “personality disorder”, was arrested last week and faces these charges in a federal court because he was discharged from the army.
Iraq’s largest newspaper, Azzaman, doubted the soldiers would be punished. It said the US Army would carry out an investigation, come to the obvious conclusion and the soldiers will escape with light punishment like the soldiers from Abu Ghraib did.
