Original Note:
Torture at Abu Ghraib Prison was real, but this anecdote is false. The man in the hood is Abdou Hussain Saad Faleh, he wasn't electrocuted. The man claiming to be in the photo is Ali Shalal Qaissi. In 2006 he admitted it wasn't him in the infamous photo. https://youtube.com/shorts/Wg3laxuJmvs?si=a2fLKBwj6tzQSYbH https://www.nytimes.com/2006/03/18/world/middleeast/cited-as-symbol-of-abu-ghraib-man-admits-he-is-not-in.html
