- Torturers in Camouflage: The U.S. Military, Ethical Hellhole
  Posted by ptristam from Pierre Tristam
  Almost half of American soldiers in Iraq think torture should be allowed to save the life of another soldier, and 39 percent of Marines and 36 percent of Army soldiers think it should be allowed merely to gather information on insurgents. Barely a third of Marines think civilians should be treated with dignity. That’s your military, America--by the Pentagon’s own accounting. And the mass media buried it or left it unreported.

  Posted by Jeff from Rawstory
  Quack, quack: "Capture one of these killers, and he'll be quick to demand the protections of the Geneva Convention and the Constitution of the United States," the Vice President said in the Saturday morning speech. "Yet when they wage attacks or take captives, their delicate sensibilities seem to fall away." Quack, quack, quack.

- USS Cole suspect claims torture
  Posted by Jeff from MSNBC
  We'll be hearing more of these. The Bush administration has wrecked the prospect of actually prosecuting any of these folks. "From the time I was arrested five years ago, they have been torturing me. It happened during interviews. One time they tortured me one way, and another time they tortured me in a different way," al-Nashiri said, according to the transcript. "I just said those things to make the people happy. They were very happy when I told them those things."
