These aren’t accidental deaths. They’re not unfortunate mistakes, nor are they simply inevitable in a fraught system.

Someone did this. Someone should pay.

Where is Renee Good’s killer today? Or Alex Pretti’s?

There’s no rug big enough to sweep this under. We must follow up.

It is often better to have America as an enemy than as a friend.

There's a saying by foundational black Americans "White Supremacy always breaks its tools", quote unknown. This is the case of Mohammad Nazeer Paktyawal. He was a tool at one time and used to benefit the system.

Refers to the idea that systems of oppression eventually discard or destroy the very people and methods they use to maintain power.

Excellent story. Great analysis. Some things should never be privatized. That’s the role of government. This started years ago and should be outlawed. As you’ve correctly pointed out, there is added incentive to use these private facilities. Kickbacks, bribery and preferred treatment have already occurred.

for whatever the reason he was detained, he died in detention center, this should happen. also, the fact is he did fight along side with Americans.
