SOLDIERS CAUGHT ON TAPE STONING CRIPPLED DOG; PETA CALLS FOR COURTS-MARTIAL AND OFFERS $5,000 REWARD This video is absolutely ing and the soldiers need to be found!Soldiers taped stoning crippled dog: PETA calls for court martial/offers $5K reward Online Video Shows Soldiers’ Throwing Rocks, Laughing at Seriously Injured Dog For Immediate Release:January 17, 2007 Contact:David Perle 757-622-7382 Baghdad — A disturbing video allegedly taken from a CD found in Baghdad’s Green Zone apparently shows American soldiers’ throwing rocks at a crippled dog and laughing as the dog hobbles away on two legs. "That is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life," one person is heard saying. "You wanna go over and kill it?" asks another. The identities of the soldiers shown in the video footage are unknown, which is why PETA is offering as much as $5,000 for information identifying and locating the men involved. Pointing out that all cruelty-to-animals cases—even those that take place in a war zone—must be taken seriously, PETA is calling for a criminal investigation into the incident and for those responsible to be court-martialed if they are found to be in the military. According to leading mental health professionals and law enforcement agencies, perpetrators of violent acts against animals are often repeat offenders who pose a serious threat to humans and other animals. Steven D. Green, the former soldier accused of orchestrating the murder of a 14-year-old Iraqi girl and her family, had previously set a puppy on fire and threw the animal off a roof, according to testimony at his alleged coconspirators’ court-martial hearing. "The men in this video are a disgrace to their unit and to their country," says PETA Foundation staffer William Rivas-Rivas, a former Navy officer and a Persian Gulf veteran. "They are cowards, taking their aggression out on the most defenseless being available to them. The ‘best of the best’ don’t behave like cruel, bullying thugs." Anyone with information about this case is encouraged to contact PETA’s Domestic Animal Abuse department at DAWR&[email protected] or 757-622-7382, extension 8037.
