Another KBR rape claim emerges.


Thinkprogress:


Last December, former KBR employee Jamie Leigh Jones alleged publicly that she had been “gang-raped” while working for the company in Iraq. Since then, nearly a dozen women have contacted Jones to say that they too were sexually assaulted by contractors in Iraq. Now, in a new Nation article, another female KBR employee says she was raped in Iraq in January 2008. But, she says she was “told to keep quiet about the incident by a KBR supervisor” and warned that if she spoke up, she would be “in danger.”

This tells the World alot about what Americans think of Woman's Rights. American woman get raped and the Secretary of State Connie Rice sees no problem with it. I was glad to see this lady has a son who helped his mother. She should be proud of him, he's a real mans man.
