Iraqi prisoners were tortured heavily by the US soldiers. Some were water boarded and threatened with vicious dogs that can bite off your face in no time, and many other terrible tortures.
The people where tortured in the Abu Ghraib prison.
President George Bush let the guards torture these prisoners to get high quality
information,but instead we got false information most of the time.
A trainee doctor has a hard time cutting open a person for there first time, but it is their job and it saves lives so they eventually get used to the idea. A doctor wrote on the New York Times that when he first started being a surgeon it took him a while to get used to, but the idea of torturing is 10 times worse. So later on he asks if you can get used to cutting open people can you get used to torturing people?
The Geneva Conventions are international laws that were made in Switzerland to protect prisoners and and soldiers from abuse. But George Bush had broken that law.
