Physicians for Human Rights (PHR) has issued a call for a criminal probe in the wake of a major New York Times story by James Risen with new evidence that the Bush Administration impeded at least three federal investigations into alleged war crimes in Afghanistan in 2002. ("U.S. Inaction Seen After Taliban P.O.W.s Died" - NYTimes.com http://bit.ly/wHwpc)
PHR is calling for the Department of Justice to investigate why the Bush Administration impeded an FBI criminal probe of the alleged Dasht-e-Leili massacre.
According to US government documents obtained by PHR, as many as 2,000 surrendered Taliban fighters were reportedly suffocated in container trucks by Afghan forces operating jointly with the US in November 2001. The bodies were reportedly buried in mass graves in the Dasht-e-Leili desert near Sheberghan, Afghanistan. Notorious Afghan warlord General Abdul Rashid Dostum, who was reportedly on the CIA payroll, is allegedly responsible for the massacre.
This video, detailing nearly eight years of advocacy and investigation by Physicians for Human Rights, explores the events surrounding the massacre and subsequent cover-up.
Featuring Physicians for Human Rights' CEO Frank Donaghue, Campaign Against Torture Director Nathaniel Raymond, and Deputy Director Susannah Sirkin. Written, directed, and narrated by Jared Voss.

By the way, asshole, you do realize this video is on Afghanistan, right?
And those weapons of mass destruction that Bush, Chaney, Powell, Rice, the Republican neo-cons and their Democratic enablers lied about. . .guess you missed that part. You do know that lying the nation into war is a crime. . .but of course, NONE DARE CALL IT TREASON! SCHOOL IS OUT FOR YOU, DUMBASS.
PS: If those poor people kept looking they might find the receipts for the chemical weapons we sold to Hussein.
I guess ya'll chose to not see the graves. Holding thousands of Iraq's. Women, men and children searching for some pendant, any article that would identify a husband, wife or child who were mass murdered by Saddam Hussien and his sons.
I guess the coward found hiding in a hole. Should remain in power. Or maybe you are hoping Obama will follow his lead. And start instituing marshal law in the US.
Like Hussien, your screaming you are on his side won't matter. You idiots got owned.
True, Saddam and his sons did some horrendous things, but so did Bush. Was one worse than the other? I don't know. However, just because Bush's actions were (basically) sanctioned by our Congress, it does not make any evil he perpetrated RIGHT.
You won't get ANY argument from me about Obie. He is a worthless mouthpiece-- and not even good at that! I don't see him as doing anything positive in our relationships ANYwhere in the world and am only awaiting the next election when we can get him OUT of the white-house. It would be a great thing if the dems figured out what a waste this guy is AND chose someone else.. But, don't see that happening. Obama would have to stand down= again, don't see that happening, either!
