The infamous “liberal media” don’t seem to want to touch this story. A Google News search turns up almost nothing. But reports are circulating among sources such as The Daily Mislead about Seymour Hersh’s recent speech to the ACLU. Hersh, who has previously proven to be a very reliable source on the Abu Ghraib prison abuse scandal, says we haven’t seen the worst yet. He claims the US government is in possession of videotapes of US soldiers sodomizing Iraqi children, and says: “The worst is the soundtrack of the boys shrieking”. I haven’t listened to the audio stream of his speech, but I did manage to find a couple of other sites that mentioned it.
Daily Kos posted this transcription:
Some of the worse that happened that you don’t know about, ok. Videos, there are women there. Some of you may have read they were passing letters, communications out to their men. This is at Abu Ghraib which is 30 miles from Baghdad […]
The women were passing messages saying “Please come and kill me, because of what’s happened”. Basically what happened is that those women who were arrested with young boys/children in cases that have been recorded. The boys were sodomized with the cameras rolling. The worst about all of them is the soundtrack of the boys shrieking that your government has. They are in total terror it’s going to come out.It’s impossible to say to yourself how do we get there? who are we? Who are these people that sent us there?
