Imagine her being gang-raped by a group of psychopaths
and then the girl was killed and
her body burned to cover up the rape
Finally, her parents and her
five-year-old sister were also killed
Hail the American heroes...
Raise your heads high supporters of the 'liberation'
- your troops have made you proud today.

Rape. The latest of American atrocities. Though it's not really the latest- it's just the one that's being publicized the most. The poor girl Abeer was neither the first to be raped by American troops, nor will she be the last.The only reason this rape was brought to light and publicized is that her whole immediate family were killed along with her. Rape is a taboo subject in Iraq. Families don't report rapes here, they avenge them.
We've been hearing whisperings about rapes in American-controlled prisons and during sieges of towns like Haditha and Samarra for the last three years.
The naiveté of Americans who can't believe their 'heroes' are committing such atrocities is ridiculous. Who ever heard of an occupying army committing rape??? You raped the country, why not the people?
In the news they're estimating her age to be around 24, but Iraqis from the area say she was only 14. Fourteen. Imagine your 14-year-old sister or your 14-year-old daughter. Imagine her being gang-raped by a group of psychopaths and then the girl was killed and her body burned to cover up the rape.
Finally, her parents and her five-year-old sister were also killed. Hail the American heroes... Raise your heads high supporters of the 'liberation' - your troops have made you proud today. I don't believe the troops should be tried in American courts.
I believe they should be handed over to the people in the area and only then will justice be properly served.
And our ass of a PM, Nouri Al-Maliki, is requesting an 'independent investigation', ensconced safely in his American guarded compound because it wasn't his daughter or sister who was raped, probably tortured and killed. His family is abroad safe from the hands of furious Iraqis and psychotic American troops.
It fills me with rage to hear about it and read about it. The pity I once had for foreign troops in Iraq is gone. It's been eradicated by the atrocities in Abu Ghraib, the deaths in Haditha and the latest news of rapes and killings.
I look at them in their armored vehicles and to be honest- I can't bring myself to care whether they are 19 or 39. I can't bring myself to care if they make it back home alive. I can't bring myself to care anymore about the wife or parents or children they left behind.
I can't bring myself to care because it's difficult to see beyond the horrors. I look at them and wonder just how many innocents they killed and how many more they'll kill before they go home. How many more young Iraqi girls will they rape?
Why don't the Americans just go home? They've done enough damage and we hear talk of how things will fall apart in Iraq if they 'cut and run', but the fact is that they aren't doing anything right now.
How much worse can it get? People are being killed in the streets and in their own homes- what's being done about it? Nothing.
It's convenient for them- Iraqis can kill each other and they can sit by and watch the bloodshed- unless they want to join in with murder and rape.Riverbend
Ever since the case of the raping and killing of an Iraqi and the alleged murder of three of her family members by U.S. troops went public, the age of the rape victim had been in dispute, ranging from about 15 to 25. When Is a 14-Year-Old Girl a 'Woman'?
Two days ago, Reuters and others news agencies produced proof that she was 14, based on a passport and identity card. Most news organizations then started calling her a girl -- but some persist in referring to her as a "woman."
The girl was apparently born August 19, 1991. Yet a widely published AP story today by Robert H. Reid repeatedly referred to the girl, whose last name was al-Janabi, as a “young Iraqi woman" and later again as a "woman."
The story was in reference to the gag order being requested by attorneys for Steven D. Green, an ex-soldier who is one of the men charged with the rape and murders.
It begins: "An al-Qaida-linked group posted a Web video today purporting to show the mutilated bodies of two Fort Campbell soldiers, claiming it killed them in revenge for the rape-slaying of a young Iraqi woman by American troops from the same unit."
A separate AP story today by Juan Lozano, on the soldiers' families defending them, also refers to the girl as a "young woman." Another Reid story later in the day on suicide bombings also used "young Iraqi woman."
In Tuesday's Washington Post, an article by Joshua Partlow refers to the teen as an “Iraqi woman.” USA Today featured the AP "young woman" story.
The CNN site called the victim a "young female" and a "woman." A CNN report aired Tuesday by Nic Robertson continued to refer to the child as a "young woman."
Yet a full day earlier, and again today, The New York Times was calling her a "girl." The Los Angeles Times today referred to her as a "teenage Iraqi" and later as a "teen." Bloomberg used "girl" and McClatchy's dispatch chose "teenager." Reuters simply stated her age: 14.
But Jim Lehrer on his PBS "NewsHour" last night referred to her a "woman." At the CBS News site today, a joint CBS/AP story uses "young woman." The Houston Chronicle goes with "young Iraqi woman" in an article by James Pinkerton for Wednesday's edition.
Other stories today continue to offer caveats, claiming that the age of the young victim was “in dispute.” The Reid AP story referred to an FBI affidavit concerning Green’s charges, which estimated al-Janabi to be about 25.
The article went on to say that “a doctor at the Mahmoudiya hospital gave her age as 14. He refused to be identified for fear of reprisals.” The AP story does not mention the Reuters release of al-Janabi’s passport and the other supporting documents.
An AP wire photo published with many of the stories does refer to the victim as a "girl." Editor & Publisher
FUCK AMERICA I SWEAR TO GOD I LOVE 9/11 FUCK UAMERICANS I WILL FIHGT U WITH
ALL MY MIGHT IN IRAQ WITH ALL MY POWER TILL THE DEATH ! Allaho Akbar true
liberation we are almost there
I am a veteran and how in the hell can you judge an entire military (all 4
branches) based on separate individuals.
I think you have to be a little whacko to join Armed Services in the first
place. If anyone believes those hyped up ads the Army puts out then they
belong there. I wonder how much crime could be prevented if instead of
sending offenders to prison they made them serve their time in the Army
instead. Now that would be a force to reckon with.
I also work in the army, well atleast I work in the Dutch army not the US
one..
But I do know how things work up there, as I have worked allot with
them..
As one of the people here said, you can't call them all raptists..
The group I worked with weren't even thinking about raping as they DID..
Ok so read this and I was with you until you downed the COMPLETE Army. My
husband just left for basic and he does not agree with the war but he went
into the Army because as a family we needed security. It really hurts when
you said you don't care about the families and parents and their age. I'm
sorry but my husband is a sweet person who would NEVER rape anybody (hell I
look ten times better than any woman he could find over there) and he is
just doing this to support his family (we are a younger married couple with
two young sons). He HATES basic and isn't enjoying the Army at all (ok,
he's a little excited about the missiles he gets to fire) but he doesn't
want to go to war and since we do have children he would probably kill
somebody who raped a child because he would imagine that as if it happened
to his own daughter. I just wish that you would think on lines of the whole
military. Not everybody agrees with our ignorant president but this is the
life they chose to keep their families safe from harm. I believe all of US
is sort of rooting for this war to end...we want out brothers, mothers,
fathers, and family back NOW. I really wish that the rest of the world
could see what most Americans truly are like because 5 people give us all a
bad name. However, in our country Al-Quaida has given Iraqis a bad name as
a lot of uneducated people see them as killers and have no sympathy. It's
only us educated americans that know what this war is about and if only the
families were alive I believe most americans would feel their pain...I know
I would.
im a vet 20 missions.(one word ,weapons free ) woo hoooo
fuk da country,fuk those people.
ungratefull fkn animals.
p.s: i tryed to wipe my ass with every piece of food i handed out 2 those
fux.
taste like shet huh abu?thats cuz it is shet ur tasting .
someone posted "I am a veteran and how in the hell can you judge an entire
military (all 4 branches) based on separate individuals."
ok i think if it was not an American soldier they would have been killed
right away just cuz they want to get drunk and have fun does not give them
the right to rape someone and kill innocent people and im pretty sure they
made her watch her family before they killed her and even know i am part
american i can admit our president is a idot cunt asshole out and out
government government fucking needs help and are soldiers toucher people
for nothing im not mest up but america its self is and i hate war and i
kinda wish that the white hoes gets bombed
I am an american. And this makes me sick. The idea that people would DARE
to commit that kind of vile and sick crime and then hide behind their
status as a soldier. Nobody who could bring themselves to do this kind of
thing deserves any mercy, or any protection. That said; Be sure you're
aiming at the right people. Don't lump all Americans in with the sacks of
pus that did this. I would GLADLY beat these men to death with a baseball
bat, and most people in this country would do the same. The fact that these
men did this crime should reflect on them, and the administration that sent
them there in the first place.
To No 8 Joanna Can I just say you are such a ditz for making comments such
as: I look much better than any women over there..1st of all Arabic women
are the most beautiful- its a fact: just go to any middle eastern country
or even look at the ones settled abroad- they're so radiant with or without
make up- unlike American women who shag about 20 men before they decide to
choose 1 to settle with, these women have true class and elegance!Theres
just no comparison and i say this from a completely unbiased point of
view-I have no Arab blood in my family line.I am actually Spanish and just
want to state that when talking about such disturbing topics as rape - who
the hell is thinking about who's more beautiful! Its about violation of
rights - freedom- get a somewhat decent level of IQ and then think about
making a contribution to such discussions! America alone is the cause for
all this nonsense- and all they really want is the oil reserves! There's
just not enough space to state just how many mistakes these Americans make-
a bunch of idiots! and lets not even go near the fact that Arabs are the
ones who own 3/4 of America's economy- own Vegas...and gosh just not enough
space to write all I want..I'll leave it here...
hey
this talkin about rape makes me horny. fuck me next
FUK iraq? read your comment over agin three times and go to hell you
bastard. who cares what nationality, A GIRL GETTING RAPED is funny to you?
you like it?! your sick and i wish there was a god so that there'd be some
justice in this living hell
i know this sounds stupid but it shouldnt...
in response to isabellas comment...Do you have any fucking idea what goes
on in the desert. "Yep' we sure do get drunk (especially with the whole NO
DRINKING ORDER AND BEING STATIONED IN A DRY COUNTRY) so yeah...We get SUPER
drunk and go and rape women. Are you fucking kidding me. You obviously have
no fucking idea what goes on behind your precious CNN which tells you who
to hate when to hate and how to hate them. so if I were you, I would SHUT
THE FUCK UP until I had at least a reasonable idea of what the fuck goes on
when you're deployed!
