9 Abu Ghraib
During the Iraq War, US armed forces took over the Abu Ghraib prison, previously used by Saddam Hussein’s regime as a center for mass torture & executions. Abu Ghraib continued to be used as a prison & soon began to echo its dark past. In 2004 photos surfaced detailing the disturbing manner in which the US Army & the Central Intelligence Agency treated its detainees. Further reports of brutal treatment emerged included physical abuse, sodomy, rape & murder.
8 ISIS Atrocities
The brand of terrorism that ISIS has brought to the world is characterized by some of the most brutal atrocities in recent history. With constant news coverage & an ever-growing presence on social media sites, ISIS has been responsible for almost every war crime imaginable. From executing alleged spies by dissolving them in acid, drowning P.O.W.’s in tanks, burning people alive or strapping bombs to babies & detonating them.
7 Rape of Nanking
Sexual violence is one of the most brutal & terrifying by-products of war. After the Empire of Japan took Nanking, the capital of the Republic of China during the Second Sino-Japanese War, the imperial Army unleashed hell on the city over the course of roughly six weeks. Apart from looting, burning & killing everything in sight, Japanese soldiers would systematically go from door to door searching for young girls go from.
6 Camp Sumter
To this day, the Civil War remains one of the deadliest military conflicts in US history. From 1861 to 1865, the war between the Union & Confederates claimed anywhere from 620,000 to 750,000 lives, more military deaths than all the other wars fought by the US combined. Despite the massive bloodshed only one man was tried for war crimes in it’s aftermath. Captain Henry Wirz was convicted & subsequently executed for the disturbing treatment & deaths of Union prisoners at Camp Sumter in Andersonville, Georgia.
5 Nigerian Civil War
This is among the most obvious examples of starvation being used as a weapon of war. Shortly after Biafra, an eastern region of Nigeria Biafra, declared its independence in 1967, the cultural, ethnic, & political tensions reached a boiling point. The Nigerian Civil War began &, within a year, Biafra was surrounded by the Nigerian army.
4 Congo Wars Abuse
The extreme prevalence of sexual violence has led the Democratic Republic of the Congo to often be referred to as the ‘rape capital of the world’. During the First & Second Congo Wars & in the years that followed, rape against men, women & children was used as a deliberate military strategy & a ‘weapon of war’. Described as being cheaper than bullets & bombs as well as being a horrifyingly effective weapon at breaking people with the ultimate goal of exterminating the population.
3 Aktion T4
Following a ‘euthanasia decree’ signed by Adolf Hitler in 1939, doctors were ordered to grant ‘mercy deaths’ to patients suffering from severe mental or physical disabilities. The true horror of this decree was that a number of those killed were children. Doctors & midwives were required to report all cases of newborns with severe disabilities. Parents of disabled children were pressured to send them to certain facilities in Germany Austria & later in occupied Poland.
2 Unit 731
Unit 731 was the Japanese alternative to the horrific human experiments conducted by the Nazis. A covert biological & chemical research division of the Imperial Army, Unit 731 became the epicenter of Japan’s most notorious war crimes. Chinese civilians & P.O.W.’s from other countries were subjected to terrifying procedures including live vivisection without anesthesia & deliberate infection from biological warfare agents like smallpox, botulism & cholera as well as venereal diseases like gonorrhea or syphilis.
1 Genocide
Genocide is described as the purposeful act of destroying an ethnic, racial, national or religious group. It’s basically an attempt to partially or completely eliminate a people. Genocide is rooted in the idea that a particular group of people are Inferior human beings that don’t deserve to live & should be destroyed. The word stems from the Greek word ‘genos’ meaning ‘race or people’ & ‘cide’ the Latin suffix which refers to the ‘act of killing’. The means through which genocides has been carried out throughout the years represents some of the most disturbing war crimes in history.
