(AP) -- A jury found an Army dog handler guilty Tuesday of abusing detainees at Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison by terrifying them with a military dog, allegedly for his own amusement. Sgt. Michael J. Smith, 24, was found guilty of six of 13 counts. IMH and Uniformed opinion, what a crock of shite, boo hoo the corporal made the terrorist/insergent uncomfortable. I was made more uncomfortable in Basic Training and ShellBack initiation. What shouldn't of gone past NJP went to Courts Martial just to appease the liberal press and other associated crybabies <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

These prisoners routinely fought, rioted, bit and even threw their own feces at the guards. A bunch of "sh***ers and spitters" to quote a bad movie. If they felt the need to act that way, I say a little fear was in order; or a lot. Sadly, I think most of these convictions are more about politics than anything else. Hugh (watch the language please) Cowboys stay in the saddle just a little bit longer.

This one in particular faces 24.5 years in prison! If the story is complete the dog never even touched any prisoners, just scared them. One of the other soldiers got ten years for making the prisoners lay naked on each other! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> We have sex offenders and murderers that spend less time behind bars.

Andrew May Webboard User Reg: 05-18-2005 Posts: 210 Loc: Newfoundland, Canada Offline	I think the sentence is too long but the man is responsible for his actions and they are really quite sad. I very much dislike the idea of using working dogs to torture or interrogate people. It is not one and the same with defence or apprehension, tracking, detection... It makes one wonder if there should be a code of ethics of the use of working dogs that stands above militaries and governments, at least at the level of persuasion. rgds andrew may

That soldier showed restraint by not letting the dog take a groin bite <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

It is disgusting, but I also don't think that the sentence is deserved. I am smarter than my dog, your just not.
