Standard Operating Procedure

The great Errol Morris brings the story behind the infamous Abu Gharib photos that are a monumental mark of disgrace of Nazi proportions in the name of the United States in the hands of war criminals Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and their conspirators. That the scandal was only the tip of the ice berg was clear from the beginning. Only God knows the countless other horrible crimes against humanity that have been committed in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's sad that nobody can do anything about it but be outraged. My hands are clean but my conscience is not by being an American. The film will be tough for anybody to see and probably will be seen by those who already believe that the war in Iraq was and will be morally wrong. 4000 official soldiers and countless others doesn't seem to be enough. Maybe 10000 or above will wake somebody do something. Morris manages to make a stunningly beautiful yet disturbing film with most of the people at center of the scandal. YRCinema's coverage of current releases.
