Red Cross saw riot denied by US

""There was a riot at Camp Bucca on April 1. An ICRC delegation was there that day on one of its regular prisoner visits and it is now following up the situation," said Christophe Beney, the head of the ICRC's Baghdad delegation.
...

The Sadr representative accused US soldiers of putting down the disturbance with rubber bullets, wounding an undetermined number of detainees.

Asked about the Sadr movement's account, Lieutenant Colonel Guy Rudisill, spokesman for the US-run detention centres in Iraq, said he was not aware of any such event or riot."

3. see no monkey, hear no monkey...

the sheer insanity of this war and defending this war has people showing the public{blatantly} their pathological side.

the public operating under mass hypnosis dumbly accepts this behavior and switches to another episode of ''millionaire''.
