In 1993, this photo of Belgian soldiers roasting a Somali boy alive went viral.
The soldiers were in Mogadishu as part of a 5,000-strong UN-led "peacekeeping" mission codenamed Operation Restore Hope in Somalia.
The image shocked the world.
What happened in November 1997, was even more shocking — A Belgian court acquitted the two soldiers.

the US treats entire populations like lab rats for coercion experiments and then calls itself restrained because the deaths happen through hospital shortages and economic collapse instead of missile footage.
