An Iraqi Woman's Ordeal
At Abu Gharib
23 July, 2004
IslamOnline.net
The rape ordeal she suffered at the hands of US soldiers, both males and females, in the notorious Abu Gharib prison will continue to haunt Nadia for the rest of her life.
Though freed now, she is "imprisoned" in painful memories that left her psychologically and physically scarred, paying the price of the brutality and sadism of her American jailers.
Nadia, the name given by a freed Iraqi female prisoner to Al-Wasat, a weekly supplement of the respectable London-based Al-Hayat newspaper, felt it incumbent upon herself to speak out and expose the less-talked-about abuse of female prisoners in US-run detention camps across Iraq.
Her visit to a relative ended up in her detention by American troops, who stormed the home under the preferable excuse of "searching for weapons".
"I tried in vain to convince the impeded interpreter I was a guest, but I lost consciousness to find myself later in a dingy dark cell all by myself," Nadia recalled.
With tears rolling down her cheeks, she told the paper how she was stripped by her "liberators" of the most precious thing an Arab and Muslim women can have: Her virginity.
"A thrill of fear ran through me when I saw US soldiers laughing hysterically with a female solider telling me mockingly in an Arabic accent ‘I never heard about female arms dealer in Iraq’," Nadia said.
"As I tried hard to explain to her that I was wrongly rounded up, the female soldier started accosting and kicking me with my cries and pleas falling on dead ears."
She went on: "She gave me a cup of water and no sooner had I started sipping it than I went into a deep trance to find myself later naked and raped."
‘Like Animals’
Only then Nadia realized that hard times and an uncertain fate were lying ahead.
And days proved her right. The other day, five soldiers fondled and raped her one after another in a distasteful sex orgy on the tunes of culturally offensive heavy metal music.
"One month later, a soldier showed up and told me in broken Arabic to take a shower. And before finishing my bath, he kicked the door open. I slapped him but he raped me like animals and called two of his colleagues, who forced me to have sex with them for up to 10 times," added Nadia.
"Four months later, the female soldier came along with four male soldiers with a digital camera. She stripped me naked and started fondling me as if she was a man while her male colleagues broke into laughter and started taking photos.
"Reluctant as I was, she fired four shots close to my head and threatened to kill me if I resist. Then, four soldiers raped me sadistically and I lost conscience. Later, she forced me to watch a clip of my raping, saying bluntly: ‘Your were born to give us pleasure’."
Naida was set free from the US hell in Abu Gharib after spending up to six months there.
The American soldiers dumped her along the highway of Abu Gharib and gave her a meager of 10,000 dinars to "start a new life".
Too ashamed to return home, she now works as a housemaid for an Iraqi family.
Britain’s mass-circulation The Guardian revealed on May 12 that US soldiers in Iraq have sexually humiliated and abused several Iraqi female detainees in Abu Gharib.
In its May 10-17 issue, the Newsweek said that yet-unreleased Abu Gharib abuse photos "include an American soldier having sex with a female Iraqi detainee and American soldiers watching Iraqis have sex with juveniles."
The Iraqi abuse scandal exploded onto the world stage on April 29 after the CBS news network published several shocking photos of Iraqi detainees tortured and sexually abused by US soldiers.
In a damning report presented to the administration in February, before the outbreak of the scandal, US Major General Antonio Taguba found numerous "sadistic, blatant and wanton criminal abuses" at the prison complex.
Filipinos and Okinanwans also have experience with immoral American soldier raping their girls. Dont they ever learnt about morality and law in military schools?
Who was the one that said There was no raping Going on In Iraq? I remember someone saying Oh US Soldiers wouldnt do that
I think american has nothing but sex,sex,sex in their mind. If you see their sitcoms, movies, vid clips - their lifestyle is like - going to schools and be stylish or looks cool, being virgin is yucky, saying lots of 'f' words, be drunk, be drugged. Their lives seems aimless.

Asallama Alaikum brother,
Bad news it doesn't seem it is.:'(

And Lebanese have no experience of Syrian solders doing the same? Yemenis no experience of Egyptian soldiers? At least the Americans attempt to punish them.
My question would be a simpler one: given the total lack of evidence for this claim - reported in a not-entirely-disinterested paper with anonymous reporting - why do you all want to believe it is true? There is no compelling reason to think it is true, so why do you?
Another question I will not ask is what is the source of you outrage? Would you be so outraged if the soldiers were Muslims and the women were not?
Astaghfirullah. may Allah guide or punish these people! Astahgfirullah. her life is one shattered life. SubhanAllah
ps. do u have a link for this?
Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar

I would be equally disgusted NO LIE! If not even more as THEY are Muslims. HeiGou why dont you see Muslims DONT accept one EVIL and CONDEM another. Rape is disgusting no matter WHO commits it. But the point of this topis is that as you said the War was to STOP such evil and instead you have even MORE evil in that country!

Hmm, as I said, it is not a question I care to ask. So I won't. I am not sure I did say the point of the war was to stop such evil. And I do not accept that there is more evil in Iraq now than there was. Moreover there is a process under way at the moment that I hope will lead to democracy and peace in Iraq. Well it won't. It will lead to a Shia theocracy. But the old UN sanctions were truly awful and caused much more suffering. It is good that they are gone. When the Americans are gone too and the Iraqis are free to impose whatever oppression they like on each other, Iraq will still be a better place than it was under Saddam.
But you did not answer my main question: given the total lack of evidence for this claim - reported in a not-entirely-disinterested paper with anonymous reporting - why do you all want to believe it is true? There is no compelling reason to think it is true, so why do you?
May Allah destroy those who insult our sisters n brother....n may Allah grant our brother n sisters who are suffering eveywhere eternal paradise...ameeeeen
............Allahumannsur al mujaheedin fe kulli iraq..............
American soliders think they can do what they want holding people with no evidence and no charge, and they call us terrorists
I do not think they call "you" terrorists - if by that you mean all Muslims. They call some terrorists terrorists.
There is an odd implication here though. Are you claiming that all Islamist terrorists produce evidence first? They produces charges as well? It looks to me as if the terrorists kill people indiscriminately without any sort of procedure at all. How is that comparable with the US who do have procedures, who do occasionally let people out and who do not execute them without some proof?
May Allah destroy those who insult our sisters n brother....n may Allah grant our brother n sisters who are suffering eveywhere eternal paradise...ameeeeen
I am not sure about "insult" but I would join you in hoping for punishment in this world and the next for all rapists, whether of your sisters or of mine.
did you see what is going on in Guantanamo(spelling) they're put terror in people, So arn't they terrorists, I think america needs to take a good look at it's own society before trying to fix others.
So When the Americans are gone too and the Iraqis are free to impose whatever oppression they like on each other, Iraq will still be a better place than it was under Saddam.
YOU think the Americans are GONNA LEAVE!!!

For the same reason that YOU believe that Saddam was doing all THOSE evil acts.

Well no. They are trying to bring justice. This is what states do. They are screwing up big time, but they are not trying to scare people. Just criminals.
I suspect gambling in Islam is wrong so you won't put money on it, but there is no doubt the Americans are going to leave. Even if they pull back to their four big bases, Iraq would still be better off than it was under Saddam. In theory it would be even better off than if they were left on their own.
For the same reason that YOU believe that Saddam was doing all THOSE evil acts.
I have a very selective view of what acts Saddam may or may not have done. Which do you think I believe?
