posted in Image ControlThe only question is how many in the Executive Branch ordered it and knew it was ongoing. Not IF. There is no IF here. Who order it and how many White House principles always knew about it. Possible there is a presidential finding ordering same because of what qualifies as ethics in this George Jr administration. They would justify anything by war - even though we never declared war against anyone.
UT - again first follow the facts. You listened to the Rumsfeld interview. Don't ignore what you don't like to hear. Major General Miller, whose job was to torture and abuse prisoners in Guantanamo Bay, was sent to *coordinate* the investigations in Iraq. What happened in Abu Ghraib is directly traceable to Guantanamo Bay. Therein lies a direct connecction - Major General Miller.
It's 2:30 a.m. Bored prison guards pull prisoners from their cells, strip them naked, chain them together and force them to simulate sodomy. The guards know someone is recording their activities, but they don't let concerns about future consequences interfere with the degradation and abuse.
Sound familiar? It might sound like abuses that occurred at Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad, but these pictures were taken over 30 years ago — at Stanford University.
