Us cable on Syria: 'Sednaya prisoners sent to fight in Iraq'

A US diplomatic document released by WikiLeaks sheds new light on prison riots which happened in Sednaya in Syria in 2008.

The cable alleges that prisoners in Sednaya had been trained and sent to fight against American troops in the Iraq war.

They rioted after being put back into jail after their return from fighting, the document claims.

Amnesty International says 52 prisoners went missing and another 22 were killed, after government forces went in to control the violence.

Al Jazeera's Clayton Swisher has more details.

@vilereaver41 earlier; you blanketed all the Sunnis as killers. so you really don't care about syrians, you care about 26% of it. maybe if u have it your way, u would crush all Sunnis in syria. I don't know how religion can aspire people like u to be so evil.

again with the lies. you know who Mohammad Mousa is, just like you know who Harmoush is and many other high ranked army figures who've defected from Assad's illegitimate army. do u know Hama's former attorney general Adnan Bakkour??

[vilereaver41]

@stevenbford1 yes yes continue to pretend like you know me so well your making my day by giving me someone to laugh at. its true its a waste of time to explain the diffrences between colours to the blind so dont you think you should stop talking infront of the mirror. i do care about syria lol syria belongs to the alawite the sunnis have turkey. oh well why dont you ask him yourself i have no idea who he is nor do i want to. bringing up a random name doesent change the fact you have no evidence

[stevenbford1]

@vilereaver41 i only called u what u r. I am yet to distinguish the difference between alawite and sunnis. it's a total waste of time to try to explain the color red to a blind who has never seen colors. same with you, for whatever reason, you were breast fed hatred towards 74% of syrians ( sunnis). yet u continue to pretend that u care about syria. u don't care about anyone but yourself. Ask a real Alawite hero (lieutenant colonel Mohammad Mousa) what's going on in syria.

[vilereaver41]

@stevenbford1 yes call me ignorant or a thug whatever you want that pelases you. but the real answer is your just some dumb loser who cant prove anything lmao. ye sure sure thousands are slaughtered what ever keeps you sleeping at night come back when you have the proof i asked for 10 replys ago. you can spout whatever nonsense u want but your lack of proof just tells me you hate alawit and your some sunni schmuk

[stevenbford1]

@vilereaver41 the blind cannot see the summer Sun, U R blind of the truth. & just like your illegitimate president, continue to play ignorant of what's going on in your neighborhood. I am not arguing with u, you r not worth it. replies from thugs like U, keep me motivated to keep posting. the truth of Assad barbaric nature and his brutal crackdown is evident in every syrian city and town. but cowards like you continue to play dumb for their own benefits as thousand are being slaughtered.

[vilereaver41]

@stevenbford1 I know they make up a majority of the population which is why Assad is the president, because if one of those dogs were president they would get rid of the alawite. oh really can you find at least one that proves me wrong?. like I said you cant prove anything all you do is talk big your like a little poodle. all bark and no bite. sure your my buddy you spend all this time trying to argue with me without evidence it just shows u like talking to me

[stevenbford1]

@vilereaver41 I am not ur buddy, Sunnis r ur enemies? = sunnis r nearly 74% of Syrian population, so in your estimation 74% of Syrians are your enemies?? you must be another low life Alawite full of hatred.

thousands of videos on you tube an other media proof you wrong; it's indeed Assad & his Gang who's doing the killing. your illegitimate president is nothing but a bloodthirsty, children killer Terrorist, and so are you.

we r coming for Assad, I would love to see u standing u for him then.

[vilereaver41]

@stevenbford1 lol my countrymen? the sunni arent my friend's there the one killing the muslims assaad isnt killing them america is paying people to do that your so ignorant. you cant even provide proper proof. there are alot of people reading these comments and when they read yours when you cant provide proof they will think your some retarded country bumpkin. youv allready lost this argument all you do is spout lies and expect me to believe them. i win game over buddy

[stevenbford1]

@vilereaver41 As I'd stated before, you are a criminal like your illegitimate president. you're blinded by the blood money Assad is paying you to see your country men dying for freedom. Assad has killed over 5000 , some are probably from you home town or neighborhood. and he's still denying it, and I guess you are told to dismiss all as fake. we are going to send our missiles up your Ass and Assad's ass.... and free syria from bloodthirsty, children murderer Assad and his gang.
