This paper is an attempt to revisit the violation of humanity at the notorious Abu Ghraib prison in the light of New Historicism accompanied by analyzing the Neo-Colonial discourse as represented by Abu Ghraib literature. The samples taken here to outline the thesis of the paper are Jisr al-tuffahah (2019) by Awwad Ali (1957-) and Standard Operating Procedure (2009) by Philip Gourevitch (1961-) and Errol Morris (1948-). The atrocities committed at Abu Ghraib at the hands of the American colonizer stand for a stark paradigm of humiliating a whole nation in the twenty-first century. In spite of allegations of humanism, the Abu Ghraib scandal demolishes such claims indefinitely. The current study handles specific incidents to pinpoint such cruel, severe and unjustified actions as portrayed vividly in the two selected texts. A comparison is drawn between these texts. Jisr al-tuffahah is written in the form of a blog which is a contemporary phenomenon. Standard Operating Procedure is testimonial literature which is peculiar to the post-modern era.
