US troops fire on Iraqi detainees after burning their Holy Quran books in front of them. Amateur footage recently posted on the internet shows American troops firing live ammunition on Iraqi prisoners during a riot in a US detention facility in Iraq back in 2005.
The footage shows US forces using disproportionate force and live rounds against prisoners at the US prison facility Camp Bucca located in Iraq.
The Iraqi detainees were protesting the American troops' desecration of Islam's holy book, the Qur'an.
At the time, the US military tried to cover up the bloodshed, saying the riot happened when the prisoners confronted a search for contraband in the prison.
But the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) later revealed that the real cause of the riot was the desecration of the Holy Qur'an by US troops.
Four prisoners were shot dead and five others wounded during the violence.
In 2008, the US military revealed that it held a total of around 20,000 detainees, some 17,000 of whom at Camp Bucca near Basra in southern Iraq, and more than 3,000 others at Camp Cropper in the capital Baghdad.

And for the dude laughing at Iraqi veterans who have returned with injuries and missing limbs, well, that is your right because of men just like them, who are willing to fight for this country. You wouldn't understand that. If this country so offends you, why don't you pack your shit and leave?

You people need to learn the facts. The previous poster was correct. The prisoners were the ones who desecrated the Koran by writing messages in them, and under Islamic law the only way to purify them is to burn them. No country in the history of the world has ever tried as hard as the US to fight a politically correct war. Our soldiers put themselves at greater risk to avoid civilian casualties far too often, in my opinion. This was a prison riot being controlled with less than lethal munition

Wouldnt you hate these shitty kids in camoflauge if they were in your country invading and killing kids by blowing their jaw off?
I have no respect for faggits like this. I love laughing at disabled Iraq war veterans when I see them in traffic. I make fun of their missing leg.
I was at Subway and laughed at one for having a missing hand...fuck them!
