Eye-Rackee "Justice" In Action

Like every other thing in that shitmire, the Iraqi justice system is broken beyond all repair, according to the lengthy front page New York Times story today. The details are staggering, but one passage is metaphorical of how much of a sham this all is:

The judges dismissed the case against a man accused of joining an armed group after the Iraqi prosecutor told them there was not sufficient evidence.

He smiled as his verdict was read, but he did not leave the courthouse a free man. All the American-held detainees were taken back to the detention center. Those found guilty would be sent to Iraqi prisons. The man whose case was dismissed would be reviewed again by American military officials, who would determine whether to release him.

There's no Eye-Rackee sovereignty, period.
