  • Work on a page for a minor character on Vampire Diaries since the main page is really good already.

We have decided as a group to proceed with creating and editing the Wiki article of Neferets Curse which is part of the House of Nights series. We are planning on creating this article from scratch as there has yet to be one made for this book. Making sure to include all the basic information to provide wiki users the best view into this book and series; even if they haven’t been able to read it. Making sure to include plot, theme, and characters. The links we are planning on using are as followed:

We are going to edit the University of Illinois College of Medicine Wiki page. It's in need of less promotional wording and it's also in need of more sources and citations. We will update the page to the Wiki standards while provide the most updated information on the colleges programs. The sources we will use are as follows:

https://www.cnn.com/2013/10/30/world/meast/iraq-prison-abuse-scandal-fast-facts/index.html- This link provides us some quick but accurate information about the prison. It provides location, size, and the amount of inmates being held at Abu Gharib. It also gives us a timeline of information starting in 2003 to 2017. Showing us that issues revolving Abu Gharib are still being dealt with in modern times as well. This timeline allows you to see the how the abuse was discovered to the closing of Abu Gharib to the releasing of information to the public so people know what really happened during the days where Abu Gharib was open. This article also included the guards that were involved and a timeline of their trials, punishments, and where they ended up.


https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4289910-letters-from-abu-ghraib- This book is a first-hand view to the real life accounts of a soldier stationed at the Abu Ghraib Prison Camp. It’s true emails and letters from Casteel to his family and friends back home in America as he continues to struggle with what he asked to do, but continues to do so. This books gives us a different view of what was going on in the prison not from a prisoners view or a sadistic guard wanting to cause pain or harm to these people. Yet this is a soldier who did not want to partake in these horrible acts or behaviors against these people who may have committed crimes or know about crimes but are unable to defend themselves while they are being tortured. Such in humane behaviors.

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/tag/abu-ghraib- This includes a good amount of articles that are focused to the apologies and guilt of the US military responsible for these horrible crimes committed towards the Iraqi prisoners. These articles show the actual apologies and the emotions of being responsible for such horrible things. Rumsfeld’s article is the one I’m most interested in as he is holding himself responsible for ALL of the crimes committed at the Abu Ghraib prison as he was the Secretary of Defense (the boss of the military) when these offenses accrued. I also am interested in the Harsh interrogation approved under Bush’s administration. It shows that some government feels sorrow and pain for the horrible acts but may be hiding behind their false emotions as they were a part of the approval for these acts.

INTRODUCTION

Abu Ghraib prison (Arabic: سجن أبو غريب‎ Sijn Abū Ghurayb; also Abu Ghuraib, lit. 'Father of Raven', or 'Place of Ravens'[2]) now know as The Baghdad Central Prison (Arabic: سجن بغداد المركزي‎ Sijn Baġdād al-Markizī), was prison prison complex in Abu Ghraib, an Iraqi city 32 km (20 mi) west of Baghdad that operated from its construction in the 1950s until its closure in the 2010s. It was previously occupied by terrorists in the area and later  mass graves from the Saddam Hussein era have been uncovered at the site. Murals of can be seen in the halls and along several walls with depictions of  Saddam Hussein painted crudely. It was then location of a notorious American scandal, when the US took the prison for its own holding area for detainees captured in suspicion of terrorism. The detainees were horrifically tortured and abused be US guards until the abuse was uncovered. In 2003 after the invasion of Iraq, the U.S. transferred complete control of the prison to the Iraqi government in 2006 and Iraqi authorities completely closed it down in 2014.

REACTION

There are many reactions to the Abu Ghraib prison. There are two distinct reactions that can be seen from people regarding the prison. Most Americans look on in shame and have a sense of shame for the goings on in that prison. Many Americans were outraged that the country that was a leader in Human Rights was implicated in the illegal torture and misuse of detainees across seas.

Many Iraqi peoples felt fear and paranoia when confronted with the issue of Abu Ghraib. It didn’t take much for people to be taken in to the prison and fear overruled the sense of outrage at what was happening to the people. Many people to monetary incentives to hand over people of suspicion during its time under American rule. This led to a lot of wrongly detained prisoners.

New Introduction[edit]

Abu Ghraib prison (Arabic: سجن أبو غريب‎ Sijn Abū Ghurayb; also Abu Ghuraib, lit. 'Father of Raven', or 'Place of Ravens'[2]) now known as The Baghdad Central Prison (Arabic: سجن بغداد المركزي‎ Sijn Baġdād al-Markizī), was a prison complex in Abu Ghraib [9], an Iraqi city 32 km (20 mi) west of Baghdad that operated from its construction in the 1950s until its closure in the 2010s. It was previously occupied by terrorists in the area and later mass graves from the Saddam Hussein [10] era have been uncovered at the site. Murals of Saddam Hussein can be seen in the halls and along several walls with depictions of Saddam Hussein painted crudely. It was then turned to a location of a notorious American scandal, when the US took the prison for its own holding area for detainees captured in suspicion of terrorism. The detainees were horrifically tortured and abused be US guards until the abuse was uncovered. In 2003 after the invasion of Iraq, the U.S. transferred complete control of the prison to the Iraqi government in 2006 and Iraqi authorities completely closed it down in 2014.

Reactions To Abu Ghraib[edit]

There are many reactions to the Abu Ghraib prison. There are two distinct reactions that can be seen from people regarding the prison. Most Americans look on in shame and have a sense of shame for the goings on in that prison. Many Americans were outraged that the country that was a leader in Human Rights was implicated in the illegal torture and misuse of detainees across seas. Do to Americans shameful feelings towards the events all talk of the Aby Ghraib Prison has been quiet since the trials and sentencing of the US Military Guards that participated in the horrible events. Many Iraqi peoples felt fear and paranoia when confronted with the issue of Abu Ghraib. It didn’t take much for people to be taken in to the prison and fear overruled the sense of outrage at what was happening to the people. As fear of personal detainment and the need for financial stability, many people took monetary incentives to hand over people of suspicion during its time under American rule. This led to a lot of wrongly detained prisoners. However according to George R. Mastroianni [11]in Looking Back: Understanding Abu Ghraib; Abu Ghraib in a whole is up to our own personal debates for how we define the prison. Before the closings, many events took place, but do these define Abu Ghraib. Using the events to open our eyes to rules, laws, and behaviors that many nations and cultures use in places such as Abu Ghraib and war in general.
