Former US soldier Lynndie England, a central figure in the 2004 Abu Ghraib prison scandal in Iraq, said in an interview published Monday she feels no compassion for her victims.
In an interview with the Internet newspaper The Daily, the 29-year-old unemployed single mother living in rural West Virginia showed little remorse for her role in a scandal that indelibly tarnished the US military presence in Iraq.
"Their lives are better. They got the better end of the deal," England was quoted as saying. "They weren't innocent. They're trying to kill us, and you want me to apologize to them? It's like saying sorry to the enemy."
England was questioned several days after the killing of 16 Afghan civilians in Afghanistan by a US soldier, which has drawn comparisons to the Abu Ghraib scandal in terms of its impact on the war. Full story...
