Indian truck drivers say they would rather die of starvation than return to work in Kuwait and Iraq. They say the US troops not only failed to protect them but also treated them with contempt:
"'We took food for them in 60-feet long trucks. But once inside the army camps, we were held captive at gunpoint by American soldiers and not allowed to leave. Their treatment was horrible.
'As far as their bravery is concerned, the less said the better. When a convoy was attacked, the escort vehicles would simply speed off in different directions and leave the hapless truck drivers to fend for themselves,' he said."
