Original Note:
While true that it isn't an official act of the US military, it isn't an isolated incident. Rape, torture and sexual assault by military members against civilians and even their own ranks occurs commonly and often covered up by the military, including this incident. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahmudiyah_rape_and_killings https://meaningfulworld.com/our-work/un/sexualized-violence-against-iraqi-women-by-us-occupying-forces https://www.pbs.org/independentlens/documentaries/invisible-war/ https://www.military.com/daily-news/2019/05/02/despite-efforts-sexual-assaults-nearly-40-us-military.html?amp=
