Sadistische KZ-Spiele
Nicht nur amerikanische, sondern auch britische Soldaten haben auf brutale Weise irakische Gefangene gedemütigt: die Befreier als Sadisten
Dass ein Krieg die Beteiligten verroht, ist nicht schwer nachzuvollziehen. Wenn Menschenleben zum Abschuss beiderseits frei gegeben ist, fällt sein Preis gegen Null. Lieber schnell einmal sicherheitshalber geschossen, als selbst Opfer zu werden. Noch viel weniger wert ist die Würde des Menschen. Das haben im Irak beide Seiten gezeigt. Dass aber ausgerechnet die amerikanischen und britischen Befreier nun auch als Sadisten kenntlich werden, dürfte den sowieso bereits angerichteten Schaden in der Region noch weiter vertiefen.

Narcotic Lollipops Being Sold on the Street
Pennsylvania law enforcement officials report that a lollipop that doctors use to help cancer patients cope with chronic pain is being sold illegally on the streets of Pennsylvania. These "perc-a-pops" have fentanyl which is a synthetic opioid.
The brand name for the berry-flavored lozenge drug on a stick is Actiq. Cephalon, the company that makes the drug, does not know how many people use the drug recreationally without prescription. People appear to be drawn by the pops' taste.
