US army contractor in hot water on video

A private security company working for the US government in Afghanistan is in hot water after a video surfaced allegedly showing several of its employees drunk and on drugs, US broadcaster ABC reported Wednesday.

The video posted on the website of ABC purportedly taken at an operations center belonging to US defense contractor Jorge Scientific shows men with nude torsos downing vodka shots and wrestling with each other.

Another man, identified as the medic of the group, is shown in a dazed state after shooting up with Ketamine, a strong anesthetic.

Contractors working for the US Army are banned from the use of alcohol and drugs.

The cell phone video, shot earlier this year, was provided to ABC by two former employees of the company, Jorge Scientific, who have filed a lawsuit against it.

"They endangered Jorge employees, the US mission, and US military personnel," claims the lawsuit obtained by ABC.

The two men filing the suit worked as armed security officers in Kabul as part of a $47 million contract the company had to train Afghan police in counter-insurgency.

They told ABC they quit in disgust and out of fear their own safety was at risk due to the behavior of their colleagues.

In a statement, Jorge Scientific -- which has won almost $1 billion in US government contracts -- said it had taken "taken decisive action to correct the unacceptable behavior of a limited number of employees" and hired an independent investigation team to carry out a probe.

An unspecified number of employees, including a former senior executive and "several others mentioned in the complaint" no longer work for the company, it said.

The Pentagon takes "all allegations of inappropriate behavior by contractors and service members very seriously," Commander Bill Speaks, a spokesman, told.

The US Army's Criminal Investigation Division was looking into the allegations, he added, but declined to provide any details.

Got to give them credits, at least they didn't venture out and raped some women like their military counterpart did in Okinawa.

Japan is a developed country where rape is taken seriously, Afghanistan is not.

LOL the lives of Afghans are as valuable as anybody else in my book. It's sad if it's true though.

US is in a steady state of moral decay. over a period of last 11 years, the attitudes and ethical standards of US business have shifted dramatically.

i completely agree with you. but the situation is different in Afghanistan as it is a third world poor country as well as afghanistan is in state of war. there are no procedures in place that are in japan which is a developed rich country that is not in a state of war.

Oh trust me, these subhuman yank soldiers will be raping afghan and Iraqi women all over the place.
They will receive medals for it, it's the American dream.

Actually there was a rape and murder in Iraq of a young Iraqi girl a few years back, some low life American goon raped her while the soldiers tied her parents to force them to watch the rape and then killed the girl and her parents and then burnt all their bodies to hide the evidence.
It was even reported in CNN and a guy called Mark Cuban made a video/movie about that incident.

Don't believe me? go look it up.

Things like that is the only thing these worthless f*lth do in Iraq and Afghanistan.
These f*lth are not part of the human race, no human does this except in America.
It's very very common in the land of the yanks.

Not to mention the evil empire using depleted uranium in every war and agent orange in Vietnam war.
Monsters, not humans, not even the most evil nazi was this bad.

I found the killings

I wouldn't be surprised that US developed plenty of bio and chemical weapons after they agreed not to prosecute Unit 731 if they share data with the Americans. Imagine these monsters sharing all the data with the US, who knows it might have led to the development of Agent Orange used during the Vietnam War.

On the wiki page of Muamudiyah killings
"Green challenged his convictions, claiming that the Military Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Act is unconstitutional and that he should face a military trial.[42] In his first interview since the murders, Green was quoted as saying "I didn't think of Iraqis as humans".[43] Green lost his appeal in August, 2011.[44]"

These US soldiers mistreating and abusing Iraqi prisoners and civilians probably think if they are not white they aren't human. Heck even some black US soldiers act like beasts. Plenty Japanese and Korean women have been raped by US soldiers since they have been stationed on their soil.

didnt you see the news about some rogue US soldiers in Okinawa (Japan) who gang-raped a local woman there

this speaks volumes about the fact that the higher ups are not careful enough in monitoring the activities and conduct of these people who call themselves "soldiers" and wear a uniform of their country

 

[WS-10 Engine]

The top military officials in the US support these crimes by these goons.

It's the culture in the US.

Personally I don't consider American soldiers as part of the human race.
Just pure f*lth.

i dont think the top brass supports this activity (how would they gain)

but the underlying issue is -- why so many of these incidents? They undermine their efforts; lack of discipline and professionalism seems to take place among a lot of these young grunts (too many for comfort)
