Yes, America had Abu Ghraib. I was in Baghdad at the time. I know. But once those pictures came out, they caused a scandal. In Russia, footage of torture is released by the official propaganda machine, with gloating and pride.

@yarotrof NAFO people care more about the rights of the four terrorists than their 130+ victims whom they have shot and incinerated alive. If I were to guess, it’s likely because the victims were Russian.

@yarotrof @APHClarkson Its a different world, sadly. One where multiple IDF soldiers post war crimes on social and their officers don't seen concerned about preventing it.
@yarotrof Now do Ukrainian torture, start with the torture and killing of an American journalist!

@yarotrof Americans were torturing people WHO had nothing to do with 9/11
