This article has been viewed enough times in a single week to appear in the Top 25 Report. The week in which this happened:
On March 1, 2005, the American Civil Liberties Union and Human Rights First filed a lawsuit against Rumsfeld in a federal court in Illinois on behalf of eight detainees who they say were subjected to torture and abuse by U.S. forces. [1] A federal judge dismissed the charges against Rumsfeld, citing the legal precedent that U.S. Government officials cannot be held personally responsible for actions committed while in office.[2]
On December 18, 2006, U.S. citizen Donald Vance filed suit against Rumsfeld and the U.S. government alleging illegal incarceration and torture he endured in Iraq, including violation of habeas corpus rights. Vance, a former U.S. Navy sailor, went to Iraq as a civilian security-contractor for Shield Group Security (SGS). When Vance felt he was in grave danger, U.S. forces retrieved him from the Red Zone, but subsequently detained him without charges for 97 days at Camp Cropper.[3] As of early 2008, the case had not proceeded past the evidentiary stage. [4]
Manfred Nowak, the special representative on torture at the UN Commission on Human Rights stated in January 2009 that Donald Rumsfeld and others should be prosecuted for war crimes due to their approval of the interrogation methods used on prisoners at the USA military base Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. [14]
Not necessary going to go to the front page, but gosh, thats a tad insane
Mr Rumsfeld was sent a careful, conscientious 900-page report by the state department containing detailed plans for the post-invasion period. He reportedly dumped it, unopened, straight into his waste-paper basket.
In light of all the panegyrics being published now that he's dead, why has all the text describing his war crimes been scrubbed from the BLP? 69.172.145.94 (talk) 21:14, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
