In one case *a* soldier thought the arrest of the wife was out of line. In the other, it seemed OBVIOUS to the military that the WIVES KNEW WHAT THEIR HUSBANDS WERE UP TO. In law enforcement, when a man is a professional racketeer (terrorists are involved in their own evil racket), it is PRESUMED by the cops, until they learn otherwise, that their spouse knows about it and is complicit. Since they abed and profit from the crimes, they are considered conspirators in them. Cops typically charge them and offer leniency for information about the details of the racket. There is NOTHING untoward in arresting wives of terrorists who know or are involved in their husband's activities. Should Jordanian cops have arrested Sajida Mubarak Atrous al-Rishawi when her husband blew himself up in a wedding party?

“Iraqi human rights activist Hind al-Salehi contends that U.S. anti-insurgent units, coming up empty-handed in raids on suspects’ houses, have at times detained wives to pressure men into turning themselves in.”

There is one photo of an American soldier having sex with an Iraqi woman. And there is the by now infamous story of how American soldiers harnessed a 70-year-old woman and rode her around, calling her a donkey." And more: Although the Taguba report makes specific reference to the abuse of female Iraqi prisoners, the Bush administration has refused to release photos of Iraqi women forced at gunpoint to bare their breasts—no doubt to spare Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld further embarrassment. They sent us an army of perverts supported by an army of pro-war bloggers who use the guise of patriotism to mask for their outward jealousy that they, too, cannot mutilate, maim and rape Iraqis as their brothers in uniform do. “The Taguba report confirms that some women were indeed raped by American G.I.‘s.
